Pinak
Kapoor.

I design experiments, size opportunities, and make product decisions with the economics attached.

Most recently at Mercari, after Google and Cisco. My work sits between product data science, marketplace growth, and the moment a team has to decide what happens next.

Case notes / 02

Selected work

De-identified operating decisions, using only results I can discuss publicly.

01
Marketplace growth

Re-engaging sellers without giving away the economics.

Designed the strategy end to end: segmented the opportunity, sized the upside, built measurement into the rollout, and owned the operating decision.

Incremental GMV
+$270K
Program ROI
300%
02
Experimentation

The incentive rollout that deserved to stop.

Set the failure criteria before launch, monitored the economics, and ended the program when it crossed the stop line. The result was a decision, not a flattering readout.
