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.

Key Strengths

  • Defined and executed a technology roadmap aligned to business strategy for a HWaaS subscription offering at HP
  • Iterative roadmap planning with effort estimation and feature/architecture trade-off decisions to hit time-to-market targets
  • Strong cross-org dependency management and alignment with external teams’ prioritization/processes
  • Scaled delivery from a few scrum teams to 15+ teams using vendors plus internal refocusing
  • Built operating model for scale: team formation, work decomposition, and shared engineering standards (onboarding, reviews, testing, API docs)
  • Launch-period execution: clear ownership, daily progress/status discipline, and executive stakeholder communication
  • Pragmatic architecture decision-making: chose interim in-division subscription service to gain ~1 year time-to-market despite planned replatform later
