Summary
Ankit Tandon is a Senior Staff Product Manager based in San Francisco with 8 years of experience building AI-driven products and ML initiatives across big tech and growth-stage startups. He blends customer obsession with technical rigor, having moved from hands-on roles in data science and software engineering at Microsoft to growth and marketplace product leadership at Paro.ai, Uber, and now Intuit TurboTax. Ankit has launched semantic LLM layers, dynamic pricing, and modern data stacks that materially improved matching, conversion, and monetization in two-sided marketplaces. He’s fascinated by conversational and agentic AI and applies that interest to reimagining complex consumer tasks like tax filing by pairing AI with human expertise. Ankit holds an MBA from Harvard and a Master’s in Data Science from UW, a combination that informs both strategy and execution. A less obvious strength: he’s equally comfortable defining growth OKRs and shipping 0→1 enterprise productivity products rooted in causal data insights.
