Principal Product Manager - Web & Self-Serve Experience
MAY 2025 - PRESENT · 1.3 years
Leading the end-to-end web and self-serve product experience, from customer acquisition through expansion. I own the strategy and execution for how users discover, adopt, and grow with our platform—designing seamless onboarding flows, optimizing conversion funnels, and building scalable self-serve capabilities that drive measurable business growth. Formerly Head of Monetization & Product-Led Growth, where I developed pricing strategies, tiering models, and self-serve frameworks that transformed how customers adopt and expand with products. My focus spans the complete customer journey: sign-up and activation, usage optimization, entitlements, billing, and expansion pathways. I leverage deep customer insights, data analytics, and experimentation to continuously improve time-to-value, retention, and upsell metrics. Working cross-functionally with Engineering, Design, Data, Sales, and Marketing, I define product vision and roadmap priorities that balance customer needs, business outcomes, and technical realities. I've transformed self-serve from a feature into a core growth engine by making complex products accessible, valuable, and scalable for diverse user segments. Key areas: Product-led growth • Monetization & pricing • Growth metrics & KPIs • A/B testing & experimentation • API product management • Cross-functional leadership • AI-native product development & prototyping (v0, Lovable, Claude, ChatGPT, Figma)
