Abhiyash
I'm an MBA student at XLRI Jamshedpur with nearly 4 years of experience working in a startup environment across product management & development, operations, and user research. As a core member of the team, I worked closely across multiple functions in a fast-paced AI-integrated game development setup, contributing to product ideation, execution, user interviews, and strategic decision-making. Working in a startup taught me the importance of adaptability, ownership, and collaboration while solving problems in dynamic environments with evolving priorities. Over the years, I have developed a strong interest in understanding user behaviour, organizational dynamics, and growth strategy, and I believe that combining structured thinking with empathy and creativity is essential for effective leadership and building impactful products.
