Product manager · AI systems builder

Enterprise judgment. AI-native execution.

Six years advising Fortune 500s. Now shipping what I used to recommend.

I've spent a career turning ambiguity into shipped outcomes, first as a Deloitte business architect steering multi-million-dollar technology bets, now as an independent builder shipping live, production AI systems. I don't just talk about agentic architecture and evals. I've built them, broken them, and fixed them in public.

01 · Background

About

Vaibhav Purohit

Six years at Deloitte's Customer & Marketing practice, progressing from Business Technology Analyst to Business Architect to Business Process Lead: turning half-formed client problems into target-state architectures that survived contact with a steering committee.

In 2024 I left for an MBA at Carnegie Mellon's Tepper School as a Tepper Merit Scholar, betting that AI-native fluency, not just prompt engineering, would define the next generation of product management. I taught myself AI infrastructure from the ground up and built two products to prove it: Groundwork and Pitt-Lords, both live in production today. Between semesters, I interned at Visa Consulting & Analytics, analyzing 10,000+ transactions to surface real growth opportunities for a $42M business unit.

Outside of work: working toward my private pilot certificate, and volunteering weekend mornings at a local animal shelter.

Experience

Visa Inc., Visa Consulting & Analytics

Washington, DC

MBA Intern, Payments Consultant

Jun 2025 – Aug 2025

I joined Visa Consulting & Analytics as an MBA intern, working with enterprise banking clients on payments strategy and internal product innovation.

Deloitte Consulting, Customer & Marketing Practice

Dallas, TX

Business Process Lead

Jun 2022 – Jul 2024

As the senior delivery lead across complex enterprise engagements, I owned full client relationships across 8+ accounts, from discovery through execution. That work turned a $1.6M discovery engagement into a $20M implementation commitment, and I mentored 8 analysts along the way.

Business Architect

Jun 2021 – Jun 2022

I built the ROI case and roadmap behind a $70M technology transformation at a federal client, presenting to the C-suite and leading cross-functional teams of 15+. I also built a B2B onboarding tool that cut turnaround time 30%, later templatized as a firm-wide Deloitte offering.

Business Technology Analyst

Dec 2018 – Jun 2021

I built a foundation in enterprise delivery, running discovery and stakeholder interviews across large-scale CRM engagements. I translated that into requirements teams could build from, and ran data analysis that shaped recommendations presented to leadership.
