PROFILE SUMMARY
  • Results-driven Product Lead with over a decade of experience delivering innovative software solutions in complex technical environments. A proven expert in aligning business goals with cutting-edge technology, I specialize in leading cross-functional agile teams, crafting strategic product roadmaps, and implementing data-driven, AI-powered automation processes. My background spans e-commerce, supply chain management, and digital transformation initiatives, underpinned by a commitment to mentoring future product leaders.
  • I recently transitioned back to full-time freelance consulting after leading product development at HelloFresh?s Finance Tech team. There, I integrated inventory and production data from a diverse warehouse landscape into Oracle Fusion ERP, enabling tracking and valuation of over $2 billion annually in physical goods. I also led the successful global rollout of an AI-driven invoice reconciliation tool, resulting in 70% payment automation across ten markets. Earlier, I oversaw the implementation of a new Warehouse Management System for a logistics facility designed to handle 35 million shipments annually, significantly enhancing operational efficiency and throughput.
