Summary

Product manager with 5+ years building API-first platform products in fintech and careertech. At Skeps I lead the loan origination platform, fraud and risk, and merchant integrations for a US lending platform. Before that, at Skillovilla, I led checkout, payments, the learning platform and internal tools.

What I bring

Lending, end to end

Fraud rules, lender pricing and risk settings, pay-later APIs for airlines and e-signing the loan agreement.

Payments and checkout

Gateway routing, lending partners, pay-in-parts and finance reconciliation, from Skillovilla's checkout to Skeps' disbursement.

Comfortable with the technical detail

A computer science degree, SQL, and enough API and webhook fluency to write PRDs down to the field level with engineers.

Building with AI

I prototype with Claude Code and other AI tools, and I'm building this site myself with them.

Experience

Skeps

May 2025 to now

Product manager

Lead PM for the loan origination platform, fraud and risk, and merchant integrations, at a US fintech platform processing $2.5B in loans a year.

  • Built a self-serve pricing and risk portal so lenders make merchant-level changes without engineering. It helped one lender grow monthly volume from $30M to $110M in 8 months.
  • Launched a 0-to-1 pay-later API suite for airlines, with card-based fund disbursement. $12M+ in monthly loan volume across JetBlue and Alternative Airlines, with Delta in the pipeline.
  • Replaced DocuSign with SmartSign, cutting e-signing from $5 to $1 per application across 100K applications a month, up to $400K saved monthly.
  • Built a lender-configurable fraud rules engine from payment-risk patterns in our data, preventing an estimated $16M in potential defaults before disbursement.

Skillovilla

Nov 2021 to Apr 2025

Product manager

Lead PM for checkout, payments, the digital learning platform and internal tools, at a careertech platform that upskills people and helps companies hire them.

  • Added 5+ lending partners and pay-in-parts at checkout: revenue up 15% in two months and conversions up 20%.
  • Built an offers management system that took fulfilment from 15 minutes to real time.
  • Launched milestone tracking for learners, lifting weekly active users by 20% and course completion by 15%.
  • Built a live class module: attendance from 60% to 85%, scheduling from 2 hours to 15 minutes.
