Product and operating
leadership for
complex B2B systems.
“I build where software has to change how work actually gets done.”
I work where product, operations, data, trust, and adoption all have to move together. The pattern is usually the same: understand the work, make the product direction tangible, and stay close enough to the build that what ships still carries the intent.
Where
I've built.
A few examples of the same pattern: understand the work, make the system tangible, and help ship something people actually use.
Institutional Pricing and Data Platform
Led product strategy for an IOSCO-compliant pricing and data platform serving a specialized institutional capital markets segment, owning architecture decisions and institutional stakeholder relationships.
Global Structured Finance, Institutional Relationships & Fixed Income Data
Six years that built the foundation. At BNY Mellon, covered global structured finance across project finance, Islamic finance, cat bonds, life settlements, and cross-border structured trades. In between, led commercial strategy at Fitch Solutions for fixed income analytics and data products across regulated financial services.
Useful when product and operations sit close together.
Focused on senior full-time roles at growth-stage companies. Open to contract or fractional work when the scope is serious, the economics make sense, and there is mutual interest in testing fit through real work.
Product leadership
Senior product, platform, and Head of Product work for teams building in complex B2B systems: workflow, data, AI, compliance-adjacent operations, and high-trust customer environments.
Operating rhythm
Founder's office, product ops, Chief of Staff, or COO-adjacent work where the company needs clearer direction and tighter execution, not more process for its own sake.
Prototype-led strategy
Making product direction tangible early: prototypes, workflow models, and sharp requirements that help engineering, users, and the business react to the same thing.
Trust and adoption
Enterprise readiness, procurement friction, customer confidence, and adoption in places where a product has to earn trust before it can change the workflow.
Thinking out loud.
Notes from the messy middle. Product at the intersection of AI's upheaval, institutional markets, and the infrastructure builds nobody talks about.
When Shipping Gets Cheap, Focus Gets Expensive
The most dangerous thing AI did to product management wasn’t replace jobs. It removed the one thing that used to force good decisions: the cost of saying yes.

Open to senior product, platform, and operating roles at growth-stage companies building complex B2B systems, especially where data, workflow, trust, and adoption all matter. For earlier-stage teams, I'm also open to serious contract or advisory work when real work is the best way to test fit.
