CHRISTINE YANG
@christineyang
Project and product manager driving new commercial launches and manufacturing process improvements.
What I'm looking for
I’ve led new product development work at GAF in Parsippany, NJ, including commercialization for an HDMA Polyiso Cover Board that delivered $3.5M in first-year revenue. I’ve also optimized manufacturing scale-up to reduce production costs by 7% per roll and support $5.5M in FY2025 sales, while increasing packaging throughput by 15% through process automation and training.
Before that, at Siplast in Dallas, TX, I managed product launches, vendor relationships, and item coding improvements that contributed to a 15% revenue increase. I drove launch readiness and a 20% sales increase within 3 months through a successful product relaunch with 10+ vendors and 3 internal departments.
I started by building product support processes at Siplast, reducing recurring support issues by 15% and improving productivity for three associates. I also modernized 150 commercial product data sheets and supported private label program improvements, while maintaining 100% product and pricing accuracy for 200+ items in Lotus Notes.
