Zenith Karri
@zenithkarri
Product leader scaling B2B SaaS globally, aligning teams, and shipping AI-native experiences.
What I'm looking for
I’m a product leader with 11+ years scaling B2B SaaS platforms from early traction to enterprise scale. I’ve led platform deployments across 14 countries, growing order volumes 4.5x and increasing deployment capacity by 12x while building and coaching high-impact PM teams.
Most recently as Head of Product at SmartQ (a Compass company), I grew QoQ orders from 300k to 950k and revenue from £1.5m to £3.8m in 12 months. I also drove omnichannel product strategy across kiosk, POS, mobile, and web—then created transparent prioritisation and planning to align Compass UK and SmartQ India.
I combine deep product craft with AI-native execution (Claude, Cursor, n8n, v0) to prototype, validate, and ship with less overhead. I’m known for bringing clarity to complex roadmaps, building instrumentation with Mixpanel and BigQuery, and creating outcome-driven rituals that raise team velocity and accountability.
