Breaking into tech

Continued the Glassdoor mobile program after the Indeed acquisition. Drove incremental rollout of AI copilot features with A/B testing, keeping sprint commitment deviation under 5%. Built AI-assisted automations for my own PM work (Python timesheet migration, meeting notes and retro synthesis) that other managers reused.

Led the complete rewrite of Glassdoor's native iOS and Android apps across two teams (24 devs + 8 QA); post-rewrite ratings 4.8★ / 4.6★ and the Android app entered the top 10 US business apps. Held 95%+ on-time releases for a 20–32 person org and cut unplanned work from ~40% to ~5% of sprint capacity by halving initiative-level WIP.

Hybrid project/product role: shaped the product with the designer, defined MVP scope and led a 6-person team (frontend, backend, UX). Delivered a customer-facing MVP on time with under 15% scope creep, integrating a React frontend with a WordPress backend.

Took over an 8-person mobile team (apps + BLE wearable) losing ~70% of its people yearly. Within two months unplanned work dropped from ~50% to under 20%, attrition effectively stopped, and the delivery process was rebuilt from scratch — including unblocking communication with the client's firmware and backend teams.

Ran Big Data and network infrastructure projects for major telecom operators: log pipelines, ML solutions, Elasticsearch deployments. Restored predictable delivery in a 3–5 person team split between project work and 24/7 on-call by reducing WIP over 3–4 months.
