I bootstrapped, led, and scaled product, engineering, data, ai, design, and support teams and practices to create massive business value and establish our global category leadership. From a blank page to a SaaS platform serving 25.000 users, 1.000 mid-market/enterprise customers, and tens of millions of API calls per day. From coding a side project with my co-founders to leading a vibrant product department of 160 talented teammates in Europe, United States, and Australia.
