Turning complex data and AI systems into trusted, scalable products.
๐ Hi, Iโm Spurthi!
๐ฃ๏ธ Spoo-r-th-ee
I build data and AI platforms from 0โ1 and scale them, owning product strategy, commercialization, and go-to-market execution for complex, cross-functional environments. I specialize in turning ambiguous problem spaces into clear product direction and scalable systems.
At IBM, Iโve led multiple 0โ1 launches across data and AI, including a data marketplace that influenced portfolio strategy and standardized how data is shared, governed, and consumed across the enterprise. Before product management, I worked in consulting (finance transformation, revenue management) and corporate finance.
Career Highlights:
๐ I scale and manage 0โ1 products:
From early launch to enterprise adoption, shaping platforms that teams actually use.
๐ฏ I turn ambiguous problem spaces into clear product bets:
Defining the right problem, aligning teams, and driving focus in complex, high-stakes environments.
โ๏ธ I balance platform flexibility with governance:
Designing scalable systems that are both adaptable for users and compliant with enterprise standards.
๐ I bridge product strategy, analytics, and execution:
Connecting technical depth, user needs, and business outcomes to deliver impactful, enterprise-grade solutions.
