Senior Product Manager, DevOps @ PayPal

About

As a Senior Technical Product Manager at PayPal, I’m passionate about designing and scaling secure, intuitive, and data-driven payment experiences that connect millions of users and merchants globally. With over 9 years of experience across FinTech and Data-driven SaaS products, I’ve led initiatives that bridge technology, design, and strategy — from launching a new Checkout product that generated $3M TPV in its first year, to improving developer onboarding retention by 25%, and enhancing customer satisfaction by 48% through feedback-driven iteration. Previously at Experian, I defined product roadmaps for authentication and risk detection solutions that reduced churn by 18% and contributed over $15M in revenue, while at Microsoft, I honed my technical foundation supporting SharePoint platform performance and integrations. My leadership style centers around clarity, collaboration, and curiosity — building alignment across cross-functional teams while staying relentlessly focused on customer impact. I’m especially energized by opportunities at the intersection of product strategy, platform innovation, and user experience — and I enjoy sharing insights about product leadership, developer ecosystems, and payment technologies. Let’s connect — I’m always open to discussions about FinTech innovation, product storytelling, and the evolving landscape of digital payments.
