I build data-driven enterprise B2B products, turning usage into measurable business outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Product Manager focused on enterprise B2B analytics and data products, where I connect product usage to business outcomes. I operate end-to-end—turning ambiguous needs into structured roadmaps, measurable KPIs, and shippable execution.
At Mercedes-Benz.io, I owned an internal B2B SaaS platform serving 1,000+ MAU across EMEA, LATAM, and Asia. I increased executive engagement with analytics dashboards by 28% by redefining HEART metrics to link usage data to outcomes like cost savings, compliance risk, and efficiency, while improving decision accuracy by 25% and accelerating release cadence by 15% through analytics-informed epics.
As Co-Founder & Product Manager at ConfidAI, I built and owned the 0-to-1 lifecycle for an AI-native consumer iOS app integrating LLMs and computer vision. I improved free-to-paid conversion by 30%, maintained 68%+ contribution margins through predictive user behavior modeling, and reduced customer support issues by 20% by iterating on structured feedback loops.
Earlier at JSW Ltd, I led a B2B mobile booking platform for SME industrial buyers, lifting visit-to-booking conversion by 30% and driving 8% direct revenue uplift. My approach is consistent: use user research and funnel analytics, validate with A/B testing, and align stakeholders to deliver value quickly—backed by clear OKRs and data visualization.
