What I'm looking for

I seek senior product roles at mission-driven SaaS/AI companies where I can lead cross-functional teams, shape product strategy, drive GTM, and scale secure, data-driven platforms.

I am a senior product leader with 15+ years building and scaling enterprise SaaS, AI/ML, CSR tech and MES solutions, with proven ownership of product strategy, roadmaps, GTM execution and C-suite engagement. I launched and scaled three multi-tenant SaaS platforms adopted by 15+ enterprises and 200+ NGOs, improved NGO fundability by 40%, and led ISO 27001 certification and agile, low-code accelerations that reduced release cycles by 30%.

I have led cross-functional teams from early-stage founding to 30+ members, delivered AI-powered chatbots resolving 60% of HR queries, and implemented IoT-enabled MES across manufacturing plants to reduce downtime by 15%. I focus on customer-centric delivery, data-driven decisions, secure cloud-native architectures, and mentoring teams to drive measurable business and social impact.
