About Bhavik

Product Manager, AI  ยท  Based in Chicago, IL
Who I Am
I'm a product leader who thrives at the intersection of AI innovation, data strategy, and enterprise-scale execution. With 5+ years building products that move from experimentation to production, I turn ambiguous business problems into shipped solutions that drive measurable impact.
My Approach

I believe great products start with deeply understanding the problem - not rushing to the solution. My approach combines structured roadmapping, cross-functional alignment, and data-driven decision making. Whether leading Voice AI platforms, migrating enterprise analytics systems, or launching healthcare MVPs, I translate complexity into clear execution plans that teams can rally behind and deliver.

Beyond the Day Job

I'm passionate about the intersection of technology and culture. I speak five languages, have traveled to 15+ countries, and love to cook. These experiences have shaped how I think about building products - with empathy, curiosity, and a deep respect for the diverse users behind every screen.

What Drives Me

The best products solve real problems for real people. I'm driven by the challenge of building intelligent systems - particularly in AI and data - that don't just work technically, but genuinely improve how people and organizations operate. Every roadmap I write, every trade-off I make, is in service of that goal.

What I Do Best
๐Ÿงญ
Product Vision & Roadmapping
Crafting product strategies that connect business goals to engineering realities. I define phased roadmaps that give teams clarity, keep stakeholders aligned, and ensure every sprint moves the needle on what actually matters.
๐Ÿค–
AI & Intelligent Systems
Guiding AI and GenAI initiatives from proof-of-concept through production. I bridge the gap between machine learning capabilities and real-world business outcomes โ€” ensuring AI investments generate measurable, sustainable value.
๐Ÿ“Š
Data-Driven Decision Making
Building the analytics infrastructure and governance frameworks that empower organizations to move from gut-feel to evidence-based decisions โ€” at scale, across thousands of users and diverse business units.
๐ŸŽฏ
End-to-End Delivery
Taking products from fuzzy idea to production with discipline and clarity. I write sharp PRDs, define acceptance criteria, make explicit trade-offs, and hold teams accountable to scope โ€” without losing sight of the user.
