About
Technical Program Manager and one of three internal "founders" of HP’s Hardware-as-a-Service home printer subscription initiative, spanning DTC shipping, simplified setup, ink replenishment, and warranty coverage. Led roadmap definition/execution, scaled delivery rapidly to 15+ scrum teams (including vendors) with SAFe-like coordination and shared engineering standards, and drove key architecture trade-offs (building an interim subscription management service) to accelerate time-to-market by about a year.
