My Professional Journey

Below is a timeline view of my experience as a Sr Technical Product & Program Manager

2025-Present

Technical Product Lead

RevSec AI — Pricing Intelligence & RevOps Platform · Self-employed · Los Angeles, CA (Remote)

Shipped an agentic pricing intelligence platform with 5 integrated product surfaces — pricing strategy engine, benchmark dashboard, plan management, CPQ, and experiment tracking — from 0→1 in 6 months (Nuxt 3, Rails 8, PostgreSQL), compressing what would typically require a cross-functional team of 5+ and a 12-month development cycle into a solo AI-assisted build at a fraction of the cost. Owned every phase from product discovery and Figma design through full-stack development and cloud deployment.

Key Achievements

  • End-to-End Delivery: Shipped a multi-service SaaS business end-to-end as a solo builder — requirements, Figma design, full-stack development, and AWS deployment — compressing what would typically require a cross-functional team of 5+ and a 12-month development cycle into a 6-month solo AI-assisted build, cutting development and discovery costs by nearly 90%
  • Process Optimization: Engineered a synchronous AI pipeline using Rails service layers and async job orchestration to transform fragmented market research into structured, validated discovery templates via AWS Bedrock prompt chains; reduced end-to-end strategy generation latency ~70% (from ~60s to <20s) through prompt engineering and pipeline restructuring — all agentic features remain strictly scoped to private business data
  • Technical Requirement Definition: Translated complex financial modeling, unit economics, competitive analysis, and success criteria requirements into 60+ actionable technical specs
  • Engineered a Python-based web scraper, data warehouse, and RAG vector search pipeline that automates competitive benchmarking and synthesizes unstructured market data into risk-scored pricing recommendations — LLMs present findings, never decide
  • Development Velocity: Leveraged AWS Kiro CLI for AI-assisted spec-driven development and deployed the full platform on AWS (EC2, RDS PostgreSQL, S3, Bedrock)
  • Launched a fully automated, low-touch cloud business on AWS — the landing page is live in open beta as of March 2026, with hosting, CI/CD, and Bedrock AI capabilities managed entirely through infrastructure-as-code
