AI, Data & UX-Driven Product Growth

Product & UX Leadership

Product decisions that hold up.

Ten years in product, four leading teams — across digital banking, travel, HR tech, streaming, and analytics. Strategy, discovery, and UX, grounded in data. Fractional or embedded.

What I do

From strategy to shipped.

The whole arc — deciding what to bet on, then making it real.

01

Product strategy

What to bet on and why — positioning against real market threats, not feature lists.

02

Discovery & research

User interviews and data to find the real problem before building.

03

UX & flows

Redesigns that move the metric — not just the pixels.

04

Roadmaps & coaching

Prioritization, and leveling up your PMs — fractional or embedded.

How I work

Understand, decide, ship, learn.

A loop, not a launch — every release teaches the next one.

How we’d work together

Embedded, or in your corner.

Hands-on where you need it — strategy, a tricky flow, or leveling up the team.

1

Diagnose

Where's the real bottleneck — strategy, discovery, UX, or execution?

2

Focus

Pick the highest-leverage bet and the metric it moves.

3

Ship

Work alongside your team to design and release it.

4

Level up

Leave the team sharper than I found it — that's the goal.

Proof

Real outcomes, shipped.

A few products and teams I've led.

SPI · streaming
100K → 1M

Made the retention-over-acquisition case with a 12-month model; grew subscribers from 100K to 1M in three years.

Kariyer.net · marketplace
15d → 3d

A data-moat strategy repositioned the platform from resume database to decision-support tool.

NPAW · UX rebuild
80% adoption

Turned a 450-ticket UX backlog into a modular rebuild — 200 closed in a week, 80% voluntary adoption.

SPI · UX redesign
20% → 55%

A churn insight drove a browsing redesign that lifted session-to-watch from 20% to 55%.
