Currently, I lead product initiatives in Digital Employee Experience (DEX), focusing on data platforms, observability, and AI-driven automation to improve enterprise performance and reliability. My work has consistently delivered measurable impact, including improving platform accuracy, increasing feature adoption, and driving operational efficiencies across complex systems. My experience spans the full product lifecycle—from early-stage ideation and MVP development to scaling enterprise-grade products. I have worked extensively in complex and regulated environments, focusing on workflow optimisation, system design, and translating ambiguous business challenges into structured, customer-centric solutions.
