Looking for a leadership role in an environment with clear priorities and a team of genuinely skilled, motivated people. I value transparent processes, meaningful goals, and a culture where decisions are driven by expertise - not politics, ego, or chaos. I want to join a place where I can focus on building real impact rather than compensating for broken workflows or unqualified teammates.

Product and delivery leader who builds teams, systems, and predictable startup delivery.
What I'm looking for
I am a Product Delivery and Operations leader with 6+ years of experience scaling B2C products and early-stage startups. I specialize in turning unstable MVPs into production-ready systems and building cross-functional teams from scratch.
I have led end-to-end product delivery, hiring and growing engineering, QA, design, analytics and product functions, and acted as de facto CTO and COO for delivery and operations. I establish delivery frameworks—OKRs, RACI, sprint rituals—and drive KPI-driven sprint planning to achieve predictable outcomes.
My hands-on achievements include implementing real-time monitoring and SLA ownership to cut downtime by ~70%, introducing delivery metrics that produced 90%+ sprint completion, and building company-wide analytics foundations (GA4, Amplitude) for data-informed decisions. I have overseen technical refactoring, debt elimination, and the transition from outsourced prototypes to scalable production systems.
I prioritize focus and measurable impact: stopping low-value initiatives, structuring prioritization (PMVE, OKR, RICE), and ensuring a reliable release cadence and operational stability. I am looking to continue leading product delivery in early-traction environments where I can scale teams and systems for growth.
