Ankit Goyal is a Senior Product Manager at Google with 15+ years of experience focused on building products that reduce risk to sensitive corporate data by classifying, annotating, and protecting information. Based in Livermore, California, he blends product leadership with hands-on engineering roots from earlier software and management roles at Oracle, Infosys, and Frontline Consulting. He has a practical background in Android OS and graphics frameworks, contributing to high-profile open-source projects like Perfetto and AOSP build tooling where he’s improved tracing docs and automated image/build workflows. Known for translating complex security and compliance requirements into usable controls, he bridges technical detail and customer-facing product strategy. His uncommon combination of technical writing for tracing frameworks and build/release automation gives him an edge in making hard systems understandable and repeatable.
