AI-First Product Builder turning ambiguous problems into production LLM apps and measurable business value.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own AI-first product delivery end-to-end—pairing user discovery with rapid LLM execution—so I can ship production-ready features, orchestrate data pipelines, and move measurable KPIs.

I’m an AI-First Product Builder with 11+ years of tech experience scaling SaaS products—then pivoting from a scaling startup Chief Product Officer to a hands-on, rapid-execution product partner. I collapse the traditional PM-to-Engineer handoff by combining rigorous product discovery, deep user empathy, and AI-assisted execution.

When the problem is unclear, I take it from 0 to 1 and ship. Recently, I built an enterprise custom supply chain MVP in a rapid 7-week continuous sprint using an AI-first stack (Next.js, Supabase, Cursor), launched an enterprise backend from scratch (NestJS) with AI-generated code, and took a B2B AI SaaS validation platform from 0 to 1 by orchestrating multi-chain LLM data pipelines via the Vercel AI SDK to output feature PRDs.

I also bring proven cross-functional product leadership and measurable outcomes. At Nemetschek, I reduced implementation effort by 60% with a scalable embedding and integration strategy for an enterprise AI Assistant and enabled 14 subsidiary brands to leverage proprietary RAG data with a unified prioritization framework; at Bitwala, I drove 60% monthly revenue growth, 50% MAU growth, and 20% CSAT improvement through KPI tracking and 50+ user interviews.
