About
I'm a Product Manager and Delivery Lead with 18 years of experience owning end-to-end product delivery for global automotive OEM programmes. I'm currently embedded within Jaguar Land Rover's Software Defined Vehicle (SDV) programme at JLR TBSI, leading delivery across five workstreams — Zonal Development, SDV CI/CD, Test & Integration, Data & AI, and Drivability — spanning the MLA-28MY, L481, and L384 vehicle lines.
My background spans connected car telematics, roadside assistance platforms, and SaaS product ownership across automotive, insurance, and enterprise domains — working with OEMs including Honda, Hyundai, Mercedes, Nissan, Datsun, Mitsubishi, KIA, MG, and Royal Enfield. I'm currently building toward EV charging ecosystem expertise (OCPP, OCPI, ISO 15118 / Plug & Charge) and DevOps/AI capabilities (GitLab, Docker, Kubernetes, AI agent development) to bridge into senior product roles in connected mobility.
