Mountain View, Ca, Us

I led product and program management for the Google Quantum AI team. I hired product, program, and product marketing managers. I developed and oversaw the product strategy and go-to-market strategy.Launched Multiple Products : - Quantum Computing Service - World’s most powerful quantum computer accessible via the cloud. (9 orders of magnitude faster than ORNL Summit) - Cirq - world’s 2nd most widely used quantum open source framework - TensorFlow Quantum - most scalable quantum ML framework and foundation for first experiment with quantum advantage in ML - qsim - most scalable noisy quantum circuit simulatorCoordinated and authored multiple research collaborations to drive early product adoption: - Benchmarking Google’s Quantum Computer using the world’s largest classical computer with ORNL & NASA. - Filed patent with Google Cloud on Certified Random Number generation for public key encryption - First experimental realization of a quantum machine learning algorithm on a non-synthetic dataset (Supernova data) with Fermilab - Signed first 5 year / $X M deals with US AND German national labs and Large enterprise customers. - Developed the first large-scale quantum machine learning framework (TensorFlow Quantum) with UWaterloo - First experimental realization of a quantum cellular automata algorithm with Colorado Mines / NREL - Developed the first large-scale quantum art exhibition and $17M NFT collection with Refik Anadol.

The mission of QED-C is to enable and grow a robust commercial quantum-based industry and associated supply chain in the United States. I was elected to represent as a steering committee to help run the QED-C

I interact with Apigee's customer's developers to help them build better APIs and Microservices. From webinars to developer workshops, I help create activities so that developers can learn best API practices from each other. I also bring developer feedback back to the engineering team to help build better product.I also work with Apigee's technology partner - namely Amazon Web Services, Google, Microsoft, CloudFoundry, and Pivotal to find synergies with Apigee. Together, we've developed joint solutions including cool serverless technologies like AWS Lambda.

Apache Usergrid is one of the most widely used backend as a service built on top of Apache Cassandra

Joined Apigee as part of its acquisition of InstaOps. We integrated InstaOps' mobile application Performance Monitoring capabilities into Apigee's flagship product - Apigee Edge. I also product managed Apigee's Backend as a Service (Usergrid acquisition) capabilities and helped build a combined API / SDK / Portal for both Apigee's BaaS and Application Performance Monitoring solution. From a sales enablement perspective, I worked with sales and sales engineers to operationalize selling of both BaaS and mobile APM - often working directly with sales reps to close the first few enterprise deals. Today - Apigee's BaaS and APM capabilities are used by dozens of enterprises, startups, and government agencies in production powering apps deployed to 10s of millions of smartphones. More recently, I've moved over to lead product management for Apigee Insights - a bigdata and predictive analytics solution. This includes integration of Apigee's recent acquisition of InsightsOne.

I help founders with product ideation, go-to-market strategy, and eCommerce.Advised Companies: Kindlycare.com / Nutpods.com / Carista / Pairchute / Flywheel Solutions, Onslyde / ViralityScore

I was a cofounder and CEO of InstaOps (Acquired by Apigee). I created InstaOps to bring the best in breed devops tools typically used for server applications to mobile app development (Android / iOS / HTML5). We were the first company to provide network performance monitoring and remote configuration management for native apps. My role encompassed defining the product, developer marketing, and building the complex event processing engine & android SDK client.This product was deployed at Fortune 500 companies, and monitors 10s of millions of devices.
