What I'm looking for

Seeking Senior Manager, Head-track and senior strategic IC roles in Experience Strategy, CX, Service Design, Product Experience, Product Strategy, Strategic Design, Innovation and AI Strategy/Adoption. Interested in complex problems that connect customer needs, business, technology and operations. Minimum compensation: MXN 840,000 annually.

Turning complex problems into clearer, more human and scalable products, services and experiences has been the common thread throughout my career.

My work connects Customer Experience, Product Experience, Product Strategy and Service Design with business, technology, data and operations. Experience spans Openpay by BBVA, Walmart Mexico & Central America, Metafinanciera, Shopper and Totalplay across B2B and B2C environments.

At Openpay by BBVA, I led experience strategy for eCommerce and Multipagos, built product knowledge, taxonomies and governance models, and designed and prototyped an AppSheet Advisor MVP and a seven-agent Gemini system for knowledge access and documentation. I achieved a leadership NPS of 100 and was recognized among the Top 20 leaders for two consecutive years.

My approach combines systems thinking, research, journey transformation, experience metrics and cross-functional leadership. At Metafinanciera, work across 15+ flows reduced data-entry errors by 87%, duplicate bureau checks by 95% and entry time per group by 85%.

I am interested in Senior Manager, Head-track and senior strategic individual contributor opportunities in Experience Strategy, CX, Service Design, Product Experience, Product Strategy, Strategic Design, Innovation and AI Strategy/Adoption.
