What I'm looking for

I seek a senior product role where I can lead cross-functional teams to build AI-enabled B2B products, drive revenue growth, and execute roadmap strategy in a collaborative, outcome-focused culture.

I am a Digital Product Manager with 14 years in technology and five years focused on product leadership across SaaS, HRMS, and telematics. I specialize in product roadmapping, digital transformation, and delivering B2B and B2G solutions that align engineering, business, and user experience.

My work has driven measurable outcomes: I helped generate $5M+ in deal value, expanded TAM by 40% through strategic product launches, and increased user engagement across a 40,000-user mobile base. I combine customer insight, MVP scoping, and phased GTM plans to accelerate time-to-market and maximize ROI.

I am certified as a Scrum Master (CSM) and SAFe PM/PO and have led agile transformations that improved sprint velocity and delivery predictability. I have delivered AI-enabled features and agent workflows that cut documentation time by 90% and automated judgment logic in safety-critical systems.

Technically fluent with tools and practices across product, data, and engineering, I lead cross-functional teams to ship complex integrations, IoT-enabled systems, and enterprise implementations while maintaining strong governance, KPI management, and stakeholder communication.
