What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can design scalable NPI and GTM readiness systems, align executives and technical teams, and drive day-one revenue impact in fast-moving environments—plus room to apply an AI builder’s mindset to product launch quality.

I’m a Senior global program manager with 15+ years in B2B tech, focused on building the operating systems that connect Product, Engineering, and GTM teams at scale. I’m known for creating structure in ambiguous, fast-moving environments—driving executive alignment and turning complexity into confident execution.

At Couchbase, I designed and operated an NPI framework governing 12+ Tier 1 programs, delivering 100% on-time execution across multiple time zones and reducing time-to-market by 30%. I owned GTM readiness across Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, and Technical Enablement, ensuring field teams had positioning, assets, and training in hand at launch.

I also built real-time risk and dependency visibility across concurrent programs, escalating risks 6+ weeks in advance and running weekly VP and C-suite alignment sessions. Beyond enterprise program management, I’m an AI practitioner and independently shipped askmohm.com using Claude Code and Replit without an engineering background—bringing a builder’s lens to product quality and launch readiness.
