Dubai, United Arab Emirates
I build products that turn complex data and ambiguous mandates into outcomes that actually move the needle. Over the past 7+ years I've shipped software at scale from owning the roadmap for a platform serving millions of learners at Adobe, to driving AI/LLM integrations across SaaS products at Group.one. My background is Computer Science, my toolkit is data-driven, and my daily workflow runs on AI. I don't just know AI is changing how products get built - I'm living it. But in a world that's racing towards automation, I still believe the most important thing a PM can do is sit with real humans and listen. I spend serious time with customers not just reading their data, but understanding their frustrations, their workarounds, and what they actually need. That human connection is what separates products people tolerate from products people love. No AI can replace that. What I care about most: getting to the root of a hard problem, structuring it clearly, and working with engineers, designers, and data scientists to build something that genuinely works. I'm comfortable in ambiguity, direct with stakeholders, and I push back when the plan needs it. I've worked across Dubai, Europe, US and India - coordinating cross-functional teams, translating regulatory complexity into product decisions, and sitting in rooms with government counterparts and C-suite stakeholders alike. Outside of product, I'm a certified Zumba instructor, a trained actor, a Vipassana meditator, and a tarot reader. I bring the same curiosity and presence to everything I do. Based in Dubai. Open to what's next. ✦ shilpathakur95.github.io
