Seasoned Senior Product Manager with expertise in product strategy.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned Senior Product Manager with over 11 years of experience in Product Management and Product Strategy. My journey has been marked by a strong focus on building and scaling innovative products, particularly in the fintech sector. At Jenfi, I successfully launched an Invoice Financing product that achieved $7M in loan origination within just six months, all while maintaining a low non-performing asset (NPA) rate through AI/ML-driven risk assessment.
My tenure at BetterPlace saw me develop BetterPlace Money, a solution aimed at improving financial inclusion for blue-collar workers, generating $4M in loans within six months and significantly reducing employee attrition. I thrive in cross-functional environments, leveraging data analytics and agile methodologies to drive product growth and enhance user experiences. I am passionate about creating customer-centric solutions that not only meet market demands but also foster financial empowerment.
