Shape the problem first.
A weak brief makes a weak product. I rip the brief: what's the problem, how do we know, how will we know we solved it.
At PayPal, one generic download message became three, one per cohort. Downloads grew 4x.

Fun with copy.
I started by writing the words.Then I built the systems the words live in.Now I design the structure AI agents speak from.And I grow the teams that do it with me.

A scripted demo, not a live model. The structure is real: it's the I-CARE framework and shape-shifter from my talk.

Selected work.
Strategy, systems and sentences. Every number is labeled as a result, an estimate, a milestone or scale.
How I lead
Full stack is not a title. It's the whole problem.
I shape the problem, build to think, and leave behind systems teams use without me. Here's the range, and what it looks like in practice.
Strategy and visionNorth stars teams can build
ResearchInterviews, unmoderated tests, VoC, MAB
Product and interaction designEnd-to-end flows, prototypes in Figma and code
Content design and systemsVoice, glossary, frameworks, governance
AI content engineeringRouters, skills, guardrails, evals
People and practice leadershipBuilt a team, ran crits, trained 70+
Build to think.
On ambiguous 0-to-1 work I put a draft, flow or prototype in front of the team early, so we argue about something real.
At Ola I led content for Ola Select and Ola Play, from zero to launch.
Systems over screens.
Glossaries, frameworks and evals outlive any single screen. I prefer the reusable artifact, and I design its adoption too.
I-CARE and the shape-shifter, from my Button talk, turn agent answers into something you can test.
Disagree with evidence.
I push back on scope that isn't customer-friendly, and I bring data, not volume.
A one-week study at Expedia settled who gets the credit: "You're getting $25 back" won.

About
A writer who learned to design the whole system.
I'm Amit, a self-described sense-maker and logician in Bengaluru. My roots are in copy; my range is the whole product. I like regulated spaces where clarity is the product: payroll taxes, insurance, payments. Lately my job quietly stopped being about writing error messages, and started being about the logic, guardrails and evals behind AI agents.
