Ryan Aday

“Operations/finance leader who joined Google during a rapid growth phase (circa 2007–2008) and built foundational analytics and governance systems across revenue, partnerships, and global marketing finance. Known for shifting organizations from qualitative/"feel" decisions to metrics-driven quota setting, deal evaluation (including cannibalization and margin thresholds), and ROI-based marketing budgeting while aligning senior stakeholders like CFO and CMO.”

“C-level operator and advisor who has led operational transformations at growing companies from ~$100M revenue to multi-billion scale. Focuses on working backwards from a north star to build KPI/decision-owner mechanisms, P&L-linked accountability, and agile org structures—citing outcomes like +500 bps market share gains, millions saved in people costs, and EBITDA acceleration for a PE exit.”

“Founder-sourcing and pipeline operator with energy/sustainability network who has sourced and built multi-touch relationships with founders (including an SF-based founder building an AI platform for data-center permitting/financing/offtake). Uses a structured discovery and tracking process, provides value through insights and introductions, and produces partner-ready summaries and recommendations to drive go/no-go decisions.”
