I currently lead a portfolio of AI products at Bank CenterCredit, including an enterprise LLM platform, AI agents for Legal, HR, and Analytics, and a real-time AI assistant for contact center operations. My work focuses on delivering secure, compliant, and high-impact AI solutions that are adopted by large internal user bases. Previously, I co-led enterprise-wide AI transformation at InDrive, where I helped drive AI adoption strategy, model rollouts, and company-wide enablement for thousands of employees. I enjoy working at the intersection of product strategy, machine learning, and organizational change. My background includes end-to-end ownership of AI product lifecycle work: discovery, roadmap definition, prioritization, experimentation, evaluation frameworks, and production delivery. I am especially experienced with RAG architectures, agentic systems, vendor management, and stakeholder alignment across engineering, data, security, legal, and leadership teams. I have a strong track record of improving business outcomes through AI products, including increasing accuracy, reducing manual work, improving retention efficiency, and accelerating delivery processes. I am comfortable operating in complex environments where speed must be balanced with governance, privacy, and reliability. I am open to senior product leadership opportunities where I can continue building practical AI products, scaling adoption, and helping organizations turn AI strategy into measurable business value. ## Skills 23 capabilities[A B Testing](https://jobicy.com/talent/a-b-testing.md)[Agentic AI](https://jobicy.com/talent/agentic-ai.md)[Agile](https://jobicy.com/talent/agile.md)[AI Transformation](https://jobicy.com/talent/ai-transformation.md)[Architecture Governance](https://jobicy.com/talent/architecture-governance.md)[Change Management](https://jobicy.com/talent/change-management.md)[Compliance](https://jobicy.com/talent/compliance.md)[Cost Control](https://jobicy.com/talent/cost-control.md)[Discovery](https://jobicy.com/talent/discovery.md)[Go To Market](https://jobicy.com/talent/go-to-market.md)[MLOps](https://jobicy.com/talent/mlops.md)[Performance Tracking](https://jobicy.com/talent/performance-tracking.md)[Privacy By Design](https://jobicy.com/talent/privacy-by-design.md)[Process Improvement](https://jobicy.com/talent/process-improvement.md)[Product Operations](https://jobicy.com/talent/product-operations.md)[Product Roadmapping](https://jobicy.com/talent/product-roadmapping.md)[RAG](https://jobicy.com/talent/rag.md)[Scrum](https://jobicy.com/talent/scrum.md)[Security](https://jobicy.com/talent/security.md)[Stakeholder Management](https://jobicy.com/talent/stakeholder-management.md)[Team Building](https://jobicy.com/talent/team-building.md)[Technical Support](https://jobicy.com/talent/technical-support.md)[Vector Databases](https://jobicy.com/talent/vector-databases.md) ## Tech stack & tools Working toolkit ### Application Utilities [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/postman/postman-original.svg) Postman](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=postman.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/swagger/swagger-original.svg) Swagger](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=swagger.md) ### Collaboration [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/confluence/confluence-original.svg) Confluence](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=confluence.md)[![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/jira/jira-original.svg) Jira](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=jira.md) ### Design [![Image](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/devicons/devicon@master/icons/figma/figma-original.svg) Figma](https://jobicy.com/talent?tool=figma.md) ## Experience Career history ### Senior Product Manager - AI/ML Products · Bank CenterCredit Oct 2025 – PresentLead product strategy and delivery for a portfolio of 5+ AI/ML products across enterprise AI, HR automation, and customer service.
