Guillermina Colombres Garmendia
@guillacolombresgarmendia
Design Operations Sr. Manager at Dialpad who built an AI-powered dashboard and automated workflows that reduce manual work.
ArgentinaWhat I'm looking for
I build the operational infrastructure that lets design and product teams move faster and think clearer. With 10+ years in operations and 4 years specializing in Design and Creative Ops at Dialpad, I've led 100+ cross-functional initiatives, embedded AI into team workflows, and created the systems, cadences, and clarity that high-growth companies need to scale.
My work lives at the intersection of strategy and execution, connecting C-level priorities to day-to-day operations across Design, Product, Engineering, and Marketing.
I'm drawn to Series B–D SaaS companies where structure is still being built and operational leadership directly moves the needle. If you're scaling fast and need someone who can bring order to ambiguity without slowing things down, let's connect.
