Hi, I'm Hoshank. I build AI-driven products that move metrics.
Senior Product Manager bridging engineering insight and business strategy. I scale zero-to-one products, ship platforms that process billions of events, and lead teams through ambiguity to outcomes.

About
Full resume →Engineer first, product second — I moved because the hardest problems weren't technical, they were about deciding what to build and why. Today I own the data layer under a full-stack ad business: DSP, exchange, and owned CTV supply.
The pattern across every role below is the same shape: owning the data or platform layer underneath a product other teams build on — the fit large-scale technology companies look for in Data, Platform, and Technical Product roles.
- InMobi NowSenior PM, Central Data
Own the system of record under a demand-side platform and ad exchange.
- PixisProduct Lead, AI Platform
Led the platform team behind an AI creative product through its fastest growth year.
- DellEngineer → Product
Shipped supply-chain platforms. Learned to read the code before the roadmap.
Writing it all down as a learning track, books, and teardowns. Executive MBA in Finance, Liverpool John Moores — for the capital-allocation lens.
What I do
- 01
AI & ML product strategy
From RAG systems and copilots to creative-generation pipelines, translating model capabilities into shipped, monetizable product.
- 02
Zero-to-one platforms
Built the platform layer under an AI creative product, and the data infrastructure beneath a global ad business.
- 03
Data & decision systems
Reconciliation, governance, and self-serve analytics for revenue-critical workloads — the numbers finance closes the month on.
- 04
Cross-functional leadership
Built and scaled pods of engineers, APMs, and designers; partnered with finance, GTM, and AI research.
- 05
AdTech & attribution
Programmatic (RTB, The Trade Desk), measurement (Meta Ads, Google Ads, GA4), MMPs (AppsFlyer, Adjust, Branch), and privacy-era attribution (SKAdNetwork, ATT, clean rooms).
How I work
Outcomes over outputs
If we ship and the metric doesn't move, we didn't ship.
Engineer-trained PM
I read the code, write the SQL, and own the technical call.
Default to writing
Specs and decision memos. Unwritten means undecided.
Customer in the room
15+ voice-of-customer interviews per launch, every launch.
Long-form books on how digital advertising works, and on everything that has happened in AI, free to read, chapter by chapter.
VocalApply — a Voice + WebMCP proof of concept for agentic form-filling
A working proof of concept: a voice agent searches a careers board, opens a role, and fills an entire application by conversation, running on WebMCP, Gemini Live and OpenAI Realtime with no backend. It can search, fill, and correct every field. Nothing in it can press submit, by design.
Pixis — Building AI Marketing Products 0→1
How I took an AI creative platform from $0 to $10M ARR in five months, then shipped the co-pilot and performance layer around it — AdRoom (Creative AI), Prism, and Advance.
