Ankit Kumar

Product Manager || ❤️ System Design || ✍️ Python

I’m Ankit Kumar, a product-first builder with a deep belief in solving real human problems through AI and simplicity.

As the founder of Hiron AI, I built and scaled an AI-driven hiring ecosystem that removed outdated job boards and reimagined how candidates get discovered. The product was successfully acquired, and the journey gave me full-stack experience in zero-to-one product strategy, user-centric design, and technical execution.

💡 What I do today
I help teams design better products, with strong research, tight execution, and a ruthless focus on value. Whether I’m mentoring engineers, contributing to AI product development, or helping early teams craft their first case studies and MVPs, I keep the user at the center of every decision.

🛠️ Core skills
• Building and scaling AI-first B2B/B2C products
• Deep involvement in product research, prototyping & GTM
• Leading cross-functional teams (PM, Design, Engineering)
• Staying hands-on: Python • LLMs • Cloud • ML

👨‍🏫 I also mentor aspiring PMs, product engineers, and founders, not with fluff, but by sharing real playbooks from the trenches.

If you're building something meaningful or looking for someone who’s shipped, scaled, and sold product, let’s connect.

🚨 Product Managers, Builders & AI Curious Folks, this might be the most practical AI session you attend this month.

And surprisingly… very few people are talking about it. 👀

OpenAI is hosting a FREE beginner-friendly workshop on Codex their AI coding agent and it could completely change how you approach building products. 🚀

Let’s clear something up first. 👇

Codex isn’t just another “AI coding helper”.
Most AI tools today work like this:
You write instructions → the tool responds.
Simple.
But Codex is different.

It’s designed to understand intent, not just commands.
Which means instead of micromanaging code, you can collaborate with AI to actually build things faster.

That’s a massive shift for how product teams and engineers work together.
In this beginner-friendly session, the OpenAI team will walk through:
✅ What Codex actually is (no technical jargon)
✅ How teams are already using it to ship faster
✅ Why Product Managers should understand AI coding agents
✅ How non-developers can collaborate better with engineering teams using AI

If you care about staying relevant in the AI era, this is one of those sessions you shouldn’t miss.

📅 Session Date: 28th February
Spots are limited.

Dr. Sneha Sharma

My client got her dream job offer. ₹22 LPA.
She was about to say yes immediately.

I asked one question: "Did you negotiate?"

She froze. "Won't I look greedy?"

Not negotiating doesn't make you humble. It makes you underpaid.

After mentoring thousands of professionals, I see this pattern everywhere:

Talented people accept the first offer out of fear.

Then watch their peers earn 20-30% more for the same work.

The difference? 

One conversation they skipped.

Here's the truth nobody tells you:

Companies EXPECT you to negotiate. 

That first offer is rarely their best.

But most people treat salary talks like they're asking for charity.

Wrong.

You're not begging. 

You're discussing your value.

Here's what actually works:

Know your number → Research market rates (LinkedIn Salary, Glassdoor)

Wait for the offer→ Negotiate after they say "we want you"

Show your worth→ Reference skills, impact, market data

Look beyond base→ Signing bonus, insurance, flexibility, learning budget

State it clearly→ "Based on my research, I'm looking at ₹X" then stop talking

So my client asked for ₹24 LPA with clear reasoning.

They came back with ₹23.5 LPA + ₹1L signing bonus.

₹2.5 lakh more from one 10-minute conversation.

She almost left it on the table because she was scared.

That's the real cost of not negotiating.

It's not just one paycheck—it's every raise that builds on it.

The professionals who get paid what they're worth aren't luckier.

They're just braver in one conversation.

Before you accept that offer, ask yourself:

"Did I negotiate, or did I just settle?"

When you don't ask, you don't get.
