About Katta Vara Prasad

I\'ve spent 13 years making complex systems work — and making the numbers behind them grow. My background sits at the intersection of API product ownership, integration testing, and business analysis, with deep roots in airline distribution technology: GDS platforms, NDC integrations, PSS systems, booking and payment flows. It\'s a niche that rewards people who can think in both business outcomes and API schemas at the same time. I do both. Here\'s what that looks like in practice: Scaled a B2C booking platform from 30 to daily transactions — a 100x jump — by rebuilding the API-to-UI data flow, integrating ancillary services, and closing distribution gaps with GDS and NDC partners. That translated to $15K–$20K in monthly profit. Drove a 15x increase in transaction volume across B2C, B2B, B2E, and B2B2C segments by identifying and fixing content gaps in API partner integrations, adding $10K in monthly recurring revenue. Led 5+ end-to-end API product initiatives — from database design and schema definition through partner onboarding, UAT, deployment, and post-launch monitoring. Full ownership, every time. Built an analytics platform on Power BI, REST APIs, MS SQL, and MongoDB that delivered 15% revenue growth across client portfolios. Achieved 20% cost savings for enterprise clients through corporate travel benefit programs delivered via B2B API integrations. What I bring that\'s genuinely rare: 13 years of airline domain expertise (GDS, NDC, PSS, ancillaries) combined with hands-on API testing skills (Postman, SoapUI, Swagger), SQL-based data validation, and the ability to own a product roadmap, write user stories, run UAT, and present to business stakeholders — without needing four different people to do those four things. I\'m currently open to roles in API Product Management, Technical Business Analysis, QA Lead (API/Integration), and B2B SaaS Product — India-based or remote globally. If you\'re building or scaling a platform that touches airline distribution, travel-tech, API integrations, or high-volume transaction systems, let\'s talk.
