Product leader driving global digital procurement and supply-chain transformation.
What I'm looking for
I am a product leader with 13 years of experience building and scaling digital products across agriculture, logistics, and engineering. I have led product strategy and roadmaps for platforms serving 40,000+ monthly active users across 30+ countries and driven measurable business growth through data-driven decision making.
I have managed and mentored cross-functional teams of Product Managers and Business Analysts, led complex program rollouts (including SaaS telematics across multiple countries), and delivered compliance and traceability solutions that improved supply-chain visibility. I champion pragmatic AI adoption and instituted performance metrics and processes that increased release velocity and reduced delivery overshoot.
I combine hands-on product ownership, stakeholder alignment with C-suite exposure, and operational experience from procurement and operations to deliver customer-focused solutions that scale globally. I seek roles where I can continue to grow teams, drive product strategy, and deliver measurable impact.
