Novartis
2025 - Present
Associate Director (Product Manager), ERC Process Innovation
Own product strategy and delivery for several AI-powered internal apps in compliance, audit, and operational reporting. Lead an IT Operations team. Partner with business and corporate functions across the organization.
- Most of my time goes to building AI into the products I own. Design the architecture, prototype hands-on, partner with engineering for the production build.
- Leading the build of an internal Databricks data platform, turning regulated-domain data into a foundation for reporting and AI.
- Governance, traceability, and human oversight aren't optional here. I build them into the architecture, not bolt them on later.
- Run RFPs to replace legacy systems. I navigate multi-stakeholder buying, compliance reviews, and procurement gates.
- Oversee larger AI use cases with our internal AI team. Process before technology: fix the workflow, then bring in the tools.
