As the driving force behind multi-million dollar technical products, I wear multiple hats to lead teams of up to 35 people around the world in delivering on ambitious product strategies. I manage everything from creating product visions to orchestrating the end-to-end build of innovative solutions:

KEY PRODUCTS:
► As the senior product owner for the $12M Fusion program, I steered the development of a cloud-based recommendation engine that individualized the online customer experience, recommending products to customers based on predictive models, analytics, and algorithms. We are now enhancing Fusion for more robust predictions based on customers’ purchase history.
• I also served the SME and product manager for Fusion to customize page links in customer marketing emails using predictive data modeling to fuel the customer conversion rate.

► To reverse a 3-year decline in revenue and drive sustainable growth, I took the ownership to conduct a deep-dive analysis of tons of reports and data and devised a radical strategy transformation – a whole new way of doing business. Not only did the strategy capitalize on an untapped group of customers, but it also sharpened the competitive edge with existing customers:

• I conceived and led the creation of a cloud-based innovation investment – credit card on order (CCO 2.0) that triggered 12% revenue growth in just 1 quarter. This required the innovation of a new platform innovation and bold changes to the traditionally used billing practices.
• I guided a 14-member development team spread across 3 continents.
• PCH recovered from multi-million-dollar losses, and cash flow improved without financial risks.

I led the pioneering content delivery and playback products for video, video on demand (VOD), and cloud solutions, I managed planning, teams, and budgets. I also coordinated implementation to enable the launch and improvement of product lines.

• Experience included playback access services, such as user authentication, entitlement, digital rights management (DRM), manifest generation, integration with metadata services, and dynamic ad insertion, as well as integration with content delivery networks (CDNs).

KEY PRODUCTS & PROGRAMS:

► I drove the redesign of the platform video-on-demand section (VOD). 

► I orchestrated the creation of a cloud-based multi-room DVR feature.

► Positioning Cablevision Systems for its $17.5B acquisition by Altice Inc., I led the executive-level initiative to transform the online customer experience by redesigning the company’s prime .net site – the business customer portal Optimum.net.

• I built a task force of dedicated analysts, QA, and developers, as well as a focus group and headed a revamp of the appearance, navigation, and options for customers to tailor program features online.
• The full product overhaul was delivered in under a year and produced 3.7% market share growth, a 21%+ longer duration of customer website visits, higher ROI, and a greater volume of customers using online services.

► Additional projects included the redesign of the voice portal, a billing portal, an electronic program guide, a digital marketing initiative, a security upgrade, anti-virus, and enhancements to Optimum.com.
