Product Management Excellence
I bridge the gap between business strategy and technical execution. I don’t just write tickets; I help teams understand why we’re building something and create the space for them to figure out how.
How I Work
Outcomes Over Output I care about solving user problems, not just shipping features. I focus on measurable outcomes—reducing churn, increasing engagement, or enabling new workflows—and work backward to find the right solution.
Technical Depth I speak engineering. I understand video codecs, API schemas, and cloud infrastructure. This builds trust with technical teams and prevents “we can’t do that” from being the end of the conversation.
Data-Informed Intuition sparks ideas; data validates them. I use metrics not just to track progress, but to challenge assumptions and pivot when necessary.
Recent Wins
Video Delivery Economics
Partnered with engineering to optimize the core playback experience.
- Optimization: Coordinated codec adoption (AV1, HEVC) balancing quality improvements with bandwidth cost savings.
- Performance: Established QoE (Quality of Experience) metrics like startup time and rebuffering rate as first-class citizens in the product roadmap.
Low-Latency Streaming at Scale
Owned the video player and streaming infrastructure roadmap.
- Delivery: Shipped LL-HLS and WebRTC viewing experiences across DASH/HLS for millions of users on desktop, mobile, and OTT.
- Economics: Implemented a multi-tiered caching architecture that cut annual origin retrieval costs by $2M+ while improving global playback performance.
Developer Platform
Launched Livestream’s first public-facing API.
- Developer Experience: Designed documentation and onboarding flows that reduced support volume.
- Adoption: Drove API usage measurement to inform future endpoint deprecation and enhancements.
Core Capabilities
- Strategy: Market analysis, roadmapping, and vision setting.
- Technical Ownership: Requirements definition, trade-off analysis, and system architecture collaboration.
