My Professional Journey

Below is a timeline view of my experience as a Sr Technical Product & Program Manager

2025-Present

Technical Product Lead

RevSec AI — Agentic RevOps & Pricing Intelligence Platform · Los Angeles, CA

Directed the delivery of an agentic RevOps and Pricing Intelligence platform with 10+ integrated product surfaces — pricing strategy engine, reporting engine, invoices, usage events and metering, customer management, entitlements and features, benchmark dashboard, plan management, CPQ, and hypothesis tracking — from 0→1 in 6 months, collapsing the typical 12-month development cycle (Nuxt 3, Rails 8, Go, AWS Bedrock, PostgreSQL). Owned product strategy, technical architecture, and end-to-end execution, orchestrating an AI-assisted, spec-driven development workflow.

Key Achievements

  • ▸Process Optimization: Architected a synchronous AI pipeline using Rails service layers and async job orchestration to transform fragmented market research into structured, validated discovery templates via AWS Bedrock prompt chains; drove a ~78% reduction in end-to-end strategy generation latency (from ~60s to ~13s) through prompt engineering and pipeline restructuring — all agentic features remain strictly scoped to private business data
  • ▸Technical Requirement Definition: Translated complex financial modeling, unit economics, competitive analysis, and success criteria requirements into 100+ validated and actionable technical specs across all platform surfaces
  • ▸Designed a Python-based web scraper, data warehouse, and RAG vector search pipeline that automates competitive benchmarking and synthesizes unstructured market data into risk-scored pricing recommendations — LLMs present findings, never decide
  • ▸Development Velocity: Established an AI-assisted, spec-driven development workflow using AWS Kiro CLI and deployed the full platform on AWS (EC2, RDS PostgreSQL, S3, Bedrock), cutting development and discovery costs by nearly 90%
  • ▸Delivered a fully automated, production cloud deployment on AWS — the platform launched in open beta as of March 2026, with hosting, CI/CD, and Bedrock AI capabilities managed entirely through infrastructure-as-code
