Director-level Product Leader specializing in AI, platforms, and B2B SaaS

San Francisco, CA19y exp

“Senior product leader with 15+ years spanning FAANG-scale platforms and early-stage startups, from Skype’s bot framework at 300M MAU to AI-native enterprise products in fintech, banking, and data center operations. Particularly strong in human-centered AI, trust and transparency UX, and turning ambiguous 0-1 opportunities into shipped MVPs that win pilots, awards, and business traction—including a GenAI observability platform that earned a Google Accelerator award and later led to acquisition.”

“Customer Success Lead in healthcare AI (diabetic retinopathy screening) who owns enterprise accounts end-to-end and drives measurable adoption/retention outcomes. Experienced navigating complex stakeholder dynamics during a health system acquisition, using Tableau/Salesforce analytics and ROI storytelling to expand from pilot to full deployment, and leading cross-functional delivery of EMR-integrated SSO to unblock clinical workflow adoption.”

Danville, CA20y exp

“Product leader with experience spanning Apple and healthcare AI, including leading the global Apple Relay partner portal now used across 80+ countries and building LLM-powered clinician documentation tools at Xolv. Stands out for combining large-scale platform execution, measurable business impact, and a human-centered approach to AI in regulated environments.”

“UX/product designer in a medical laboratory B2B portal context who prototypes beyond Figma—built a GPT-based settings chatbot to address findability and low settings adoption, iterating through 11 tested versions with regression safeguards and structured prompts to mitigate instruction truncation/hallucinations. Also redesigned clinic order management by separating doctor vs assistant experiences and introducing step-based status views for a long, multi-stage lab order lifecycle; former full-stack engineer who improves design-to-dev handoffs via templates and readiness rituals.”

“Customer success/account and product leader who rebuilt from a failed startup into a consulting + SaaS business (~$300K) and later oversaw account management/renewals across a manufacturing software portfolio that scaled to $22M (mentions clients like Segway and Invisalign). Brings scaled-agile cross-functional leadership, strong change-management/training focus, and Salesforce analytics/reporting to drive adoption, retention, and roadmap improvements.”
