A little about me

Curious by default. Usually building something.

I'm Nirmeet, a Product Manager and hands-on builder based in the New York City area. I'm drawn to problems where the workflow is messy, the stakes are real, and a better product can make someone's day noticeably easier.

My path has taken me from computer engineering in India to a master's in Information Technology and Management at UT Dallas, and into building products across healthcare, AI, and compliance. Along the way, I've learned that a good product question can save weeks of engineering. I've also learned to ask it before opening the code editor. Usually.

The work I keep coming back to.

I enjoy taking an unclear problem and giving it shape: talking to users, understanding the constraints, deciding what matters, and working through the details until something useful exists.

That has included Paxei, an AI prior authorization copilot; Pharmflows, an internal pharmacy workflow tool; and Zeinloop, my startup focused on building compliance and sustainability. Different domains, but a recurring challenge: helping people navigate complicated information and get important work done.

I stay close to both product decisions and implementation. I'm comfortable moving between a user conversation, a workflow diagram, a prototype, and the technical details that determine whether an idea will work.

AI, with a job to do.

I work hands-on with frontier models and AI development tools to prototype, build, and explore what is becoming possible. My interest is in how those capabilities translate into useful products, not in putting AI everywhere for its own sake.

Outside the roadmap.

I like hiking trails that make me forget what day it is, planning road trips around the next good meal, dialing in espresso at home, cooking meals I can talk about for too long, building AI agents just to see what's possible, sketching product ideas on whatever's nearby, and fussing over my plants. I also spend too much time wondering why a five-click workflow needs five clicks.
