What I'm looking for

For my next role, I am seeking a fully-remote strategic Product Manager position within a forward-thinking FinTech company. My goal is to apply my 21+ years of experience in BaaS/SaaS platforms to lead innovative initiatives, leveraging emerging technologies like generative AI and advanced UX to drive business growth and enhance user experience.

My 21-year career in IT and Product Management is defined by a passion for developing innovative digital solutions within the financial sector, specializing in Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms. My approach blends data-driven insights with a deep empathy for the end-user, guiding cross-functional teams to build products that both meet business objectives and enhance member engagement. A key achievement includes driving a 67% increase in digital platform usage, demonstrating my ability to deliver products that resonate with the market. I excel at defining success metrics, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, and operating effectively within agile environments. My strong communication skills bridge the gap between technical and non-technical stakeholders, ensuring seamless, regulatory-compliant product delivery.

Professional Interests and Future Direction

Moving forward, I am seeking roles that allow me to apply my extensive experience to new challenges in FinTech. My interests include:

  • Innovating with emerging technologies: I am expanding my expertise in generative AI to revolutionize user experiences in digital banking, from personalized financial advice to hyper-efficient customer support.

  • Enhancing User Experience (UX): My commitment to comprehensive user research and testing ensures products are not only functional but also engaging. My pursuit of an Agile Professional certification further refines my skills in modern product management.

  • Strategic leadership: I am passionate about leading product portfolios from strategy through execution, driving significant business results.

I am an ideal match for a forward-thinking FinTech company that values a blend of deep industry experience and a progressive mindset. I am ready to bring my proven success to a new team and continue building the future of digital finance.
