Product Ownership

Turning ambiguous product needs into requirements, trade-offs and incremental delivery with measurable user and business outcomes.

End-to-End Ownership
From ambiguity
to delivery
I turn ambiguous product problems into clear decisions and verified delivery, make production systems faster and more reliable, and establish standards that help teams grow. I work AI-native every day, using coding agents to multiply execution while keeping context, trade-offs, review and accountability with me; my hands-on AI work includes RAG and LLM APIs, Python, Qdrant and retrieval evaluation.
Product judgment, AI-native execution, and reliable systems
AI-Native Engineering
Coding Agents · Python · Retrieval
Decomposing substantial work for agents, reviewing every result and verifying it with tests, types, builds, metrics and observation.
Systems & Leadership
AWS · Serverless · Observability
Building resilient systems and reusable standards while helping engineers make better decisions with less dependency.
Evidence from shipped products
Proof: Modernization + Performance
A faster B2B checkout
I implemented the checkout migration from WooCommerce to Next.js and AWS serverless, preserving the existing flow during a gradual rollout. I later implemented a DynamoDB cache.
Result: Across both improvements, load time moved from roughly 20 seconds at worst to about 1 second at best.
Proof: AI-Native Engineering
AI-native delivery, verified
I designed my public TypeScript/AWS Lambda template, defined environment separation, observability and quality gates, and directed coding agents through implementation and review.
Result: Deployed to AWS and published on GitHub, with automated tests, build and CDK validation in CI, plus OIDC deployment without stored long-lived AWS access keys.
Proof: Hands-on Leadership
Stability and team autonomy
As Technical Lead for a leading Swiss private bank, I led a five-engineer squad through the recovery of a React Native investment app. I traced the problem to accumulating socket subscriptions, implemented the first fix and guided remediation across the app.
Result: Recurring freezes and crashes stopped. The team became less dependent on me, and two engineers were promoted during my tenure.
