Fractional Product Leader

  Location: San Francisco, CA
  Remote: Yes, global (English, limited Spanish)
  Willing to relocate: No
  Onsite: San Francisco. Regular travel available
Technologies: Product, PLG, Growth, Workflow, B2B, Vertical B2B, Service-Oriented Vertical SaaS, AI

I specialize in untangling product complexity for vertical B2B startups where workflows make or break adoption. I've led growth strategy at Toast (launched Cafe/Bakery segment), OpenTable (pandemic pivot, integrations ecosystem), and Slack (Shared Channels/Connect).

What I do: Pattern recognition → Strategic roadmaps → Team alignment → Revenue outcomes. I work with founders and product leaders who know they're missing something but can't put their finger on it.

Current focus: Early-stage startups moving from MVP to sustainable growth. I also scout for VCs in this space.
