About
Hello! I work with candidates targeting product and product-adjacent roles: founding PM, forward-deployed engineer, deployment strategist, chief of staff, and strategic projects. Clients and friends have landed at companies like Coinbase, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Google. I was founding product lead on the global enterprise platform team at Quantinuum, a $17B advanced computing scale-up (NASDAQ: QNT). I shipped 0→1 API and on-prem security products, signed a $150B conglomerate as anchor customer, protected 3M users across NAMER/EMEA/APJ, and built the pricing, packaging, ABM, and partner motions that scaled into F500 accounts (HSBC, Roche, Aramco, Honeywell, Fujitsu). Earlier I ran strategic projects from the COO office on a $300M M&A deal covered in the FT and Bloomberg, and led self-serve product plus early commercial at LeaseMagnets (YC S21). Today I build and deploy AI agents into PE-backed services businesses and have taken LLM pilots through discovery with MOD UK, Microsoft, and Amazon. I take a full-stack approach from first shortlist to signed offer: company targeting and narrative positioning, resume and LinkedIn work for non-template backgrounds, company-specific interview dossiers, story banks on a real behavioral framework (not STAR), live product-sense and case reps, and offer negotiation. Best fit for candidates without a clean FAANG-shaped resume who need their actual path made legible to a hiring manager in ninety seconds. Ideal for: AI-native startups and frontier tech; career switchers from finance, consulting, or ops into product; founders and operators moving into PM, chief of staff, or strategic projects; international and non-US applicants; deep-tech and enterprise-platform PMs; anyone with a non-linear resume that needs a clear story. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Wishing you the very best.
