I turn strategic vision into shipped products
As a senior product leader working at the intersection of strategy, product, and profit I've led teams at Fortune 500 scale and built from 0-1 at Techstars and Harvard Innovation Labs.
Hi.
I'm a Senior Product Manager based in Boston, MA with 10+ years building and transforming digital products across global enterprises and high-growth startups.
My range spans zero-to-one founding to enterprise-scale digital transformation, with deep fluency in AI-powered product development and executive stakeholder alignment.
What I leave behind: teams, frameworks, and governance models built to outlast the engagement.

Companies I've delivered for
I've proudly been called upon to lead products across diverse environments, delivering real business solutions.
Most consultants haven't shipped products.
Most PMs haven’t led C-level governance.
I've done both repeatedly.
This is why I can translate between strategy and execution in ways that pure strategists or builders cannot.
What the business gets when I'm on the team
Product management strategy, team leadership, and board alignment, from vision to execution
Strategy the board can trust to hold
Board-level ambition often dies in translation, or gets diluted into consensus nobody owns. I turn boardroom vision into a strategy the C-suite will actually commit to and that holds together once it hits the org.
AI products that actually move revenue
Most AI initiatives stall as expensive pilots. I've turned AI into shipped, profitable product, repeatedly, including in regulated markets where the bar is highest.
Product ops that flex in small and scale settings
I design product operation systems that enable teams to scale without sacrificing delivery pace. They keep performing even if I've moved on, because the org owns the system, not just the outcome.
What people say about working with me
What my co-workers are saying about me
Strateging
Working with Carlos, I could always count on him to challenge the status quo, inspire others, and to turn new ideas into digital business strategies.
Developing
I worked with Carlos across very different projects, and he consistently stood out for his commitment and ability to connect teams around results.
Delivering
I especially valued Carlos’s ability to simplify complex problems and work across disciplines, from shaping new businesses to defining technical solutions.
Scaling
When we worked together, I was impressed by Carlos's capability to combine creativity, design, and digital marketing to see opportunities beyond the obvious.
My answers for your questions
Honest and pragmatic answers to the questions that you may have
What kind of problems do you tackle best?
The ones where strategy is clear but execution keeps breaking or the opposite, where teams are shipping fast but nobody agrees on what matters. Most people are strong at one; I've had to be strong at both.
What are you looking for now, coming from co-founder roles?
Working in big companies taught me to navigate complex infrastructure, legacy systems, and politics. As a founder, I had the full business view: sales, finance, investor negotiation, not just the product. Some skills only show up when everything is your problem. That combination was intentional, it's the complementary learning I wanted as a Senior PM. I'm proud of what I built at Aurellius, and now I'm ready to bring that founder experience back into an environment where I can put all of it to work, at a larger scale.
How do you work with C-suite and boards?
Most strategy consultants haven't shipped products. Most PMs haven't facilitated C-level governance. I've done both repeatedly, which means I can translate between strategy and execution in ways that pure strategists or pure builders cannot.
What's your AI product experience?
Two ends of it. At Fiat/Jeep, I built an AI/ML pipeline that turned raw automotive data into cost-per-lead decisions, AI in service of a very concrete business number. At Aurellius, as co-founder, I made the architecture decisions for a compliance AI product in legaltech, where the model's output carries legal weight, so explainability wasn't optional. I don't add AI because it's expected. I add it where the decision actually needs it.
What's your experience with regulated markets?
I've shipped products where a wrong decision has clinical or legal consequences, in EHR and compliance environments. I know how to run discovery, validation, and prioritization when the cost of being wrong isn't just a bad release, it's a compliance problem.
What does your leadership style look like?
I set direction once, then I protect it: I say no to scope that drifts from it, and I spend my time removing blockers, not reviewing tickets.
Have you worked for big companies?
I've worked with Fortune 500 enterprises, mid-market companies, and early-stage startups. Organization size matters less than problem complexity and leadership commitment to change.
