## About

I build products that scale\. Over 6 years, I've shipped AI\-enabled platforms and data infrastructure that moved the needle, whether that's building enterprise scale data infrastructure or quality monitoring before deploying to all Mercedes cars\. ► What I do: Define product strategy for complex, technical domains\. Lead cross\-functional teams across geographies\. Translate business problems into scalable technical solutions\. ► What I've learned: The best products live at the intersection of user need, technical feasibility, and business viability\. I obsess over that intersection\. ► Currently: Pursuing an MBA at ESADE focused on AI\-driven product strategy\. Exploring opportunities to lead product for AI/ML\-first companies or scale\-stage startups\. ► Let's talk if: You're building products in autonomous systems, enterprise AI, data platforms, or cloud infrastructure\.
