What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead data-informed product strategy and iterative delivery for B2B SaaS or open-source products, where I can own KPIs end to end, prototype with AI tools, and collaborate asynchronously with global teams.

At Schema Education, I lead Open edX product work from funded proposals through backlog management, acceptance criteria, QA, and implementation. I turned 2,000 support requests into prioritized product proposals, redesigned Studio Advanced Settings across 70 configurations, and contributed production code to Open edX using Claude Code.

Previously at eduNEXT, I led a $40K+ Axim-funded LTI integration project, automated 94% of billing processes, recovered 80% of overdue payments, and reduced a product migration from four months to one. I bring a software engineering background, hands-on prototyping in Claude Code, and experience working asynchronously with global open-source and US-based teams.
