Senior product leader driving search and catalog growth with measurable impact.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior product manager with deep experience owning search and catalog products at scale, driving measurable business outcomes through technical roadmaps and cross-functional leadership.
At Amazon, I defined roadmaps across multiple teams and led ML-driven search initiatives that reduced irrelevant results and generated significant annualized revenue, while launching frameworks that materially improved relevancy and CTR.
Earlier roles at Instacart and Big Health had me scale catalogs from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of items, reduce defects and time-to-launch, and run user research and product analytics programs that informed executive decisions.
I combine data-driven decision making, hands-on product and program management, and UX sensibility to launch high-impact features, optimize operations, and align stakeholders from engineers to VPs.
