@leontedan
Strategic operations and compliance leader driving AI-enabled process innovation and scalable program performance.
What I'm looking for
I am a strategic operations leader with over seven years of progressive experience at Amazon Web Services, focused on managing large-scale partner investment programs across multi-jurisdictional EMEA markets. I combine operational leadership with AI-driven process innovation to deliver measurable performance improvements.
At AWS I architected and deployed a custom LLM-based automation framework that tripled review capacity per FTE, reduced processing times by over 65%, and sustained 96%+ data accuracy while overseeing a multi-million dollar investment portfolio. I partner closely with Legal, Finance, and Sales to design governance, risk mitigation, and forecasting that maximize capital deployment and program integrity.
I bring a track record of standardizing processes across regions, creating consolidated portfolio health reporting, and scaling operational capacity through advanced analytics and workflow automation. I am results-oriented, collaborative, and motivated to apply generative AI and operational excellence to complex, regulated environments.
