Who is writing this

Hi, I'm Aakash

I write Product Growth and host the Growth Podcast. Over the last few years I have studied the AI PM market, interviewed hiring managers at leading AI companies on the record, coached candidates through difficult loops, and built practical frameworks for AI product sense, evals, safety, and system design.

I have watched candidates land roles at leading AI companies. I have also watched excellent PMs struggle because they prepared for the wrong interview. That gap is why I am writing The AI Product Manager Interview with O'Reilly. The kit is the preview. The book is the full training.
