Led a couple of Stripe's most successful products from their early days (Stripe Connect, Stripe Terminal). Helped build the Product Management function at Stripe, as one of the early members of the PM team and as Stripe's first PM Manager. Led & grew several products at Twitter, Google, Yahoo, including some products & features you probably use daily / weekly.

Now, I advise startup founders, coach executives, do occasional speaking engagements, and teach.

Oh, and I also write about product management, leadership, org psychology, and strategy. >500k people have chosen to follow my writing & my ideas across Twitter, LinkedIn, Threads, and YouTube.

A founder asked me in a recent advising call: “why do you teach?”

Here’s what I shared with him:

- It helps me scale my startup advising work: unfortunately, I cannot advise all the founders who reach out. In fact, I take very few formal advising roles, because I want to be certain it’s the right mutual fit (high growth company, fit with founder, challenging problems / huge opportunity, mutual availability). So my teaching is a great option for founders I cannot advise.

- I absolutely love it: in this next chapter of my career, I’ve decided to only work on things that I absolutely love. This means saying No to high prestige, rational opportunities (e.g. VC, leadership roles, podcasting, venture backed startup, etc.) Teaching is something I knew I wanted to do since my teenage years (at the time, I wanted to teach French, as I was very good at it in 10th grade). It isn’t for everyone and it is hard, but if it is for you, why not do it?

- It might be the best way *for me* to create further positive impact on our industry: to be clear, I don’t do anything because “I want to create a dent in the universe” (I know I won’t create any dent in the universe and will be forgotten shortly after I’m gone and I think that’s a wonderful thing, not something to be sad about). So while I am not teaching mainly to create a big impact, it is wonderful to read notes from 100s of students every month on how their products, teams, and their career are better off after taking my class. The total impact is hard to measure (and I am not going to try & measure it), but my gut says that the compounding impact from my teaching might be meaningful.

- I still get to solve fun product problems: one reason my teaching resonates strongly with some students is that I treat everything like a product. My (very small) team and I do more product thinking (and immediate application of that thinking) on a daily basis than I ever remember doing at Tier 1 companies I’ve worked at as a PM (reason: we are a tiny close-knit company and we view every problem through a product lens). This means exercising empathy, simulation, creativity, design in everything we do from course design, to communications, to community design, to marketing, to our operations. Plus, through my advising work, I get to work on the biggest product / GTM problems that founders are facing across dozens of domains and products.

- It works with my life: I work all 7 days of the week (mainly on my advising & teaching). The weeks I am teaching are particularly very intense (everyone in my house and my mom in India knows that I am basically unavailable those weeks). On the flip side though, my teaching + advising give me a lot more control over my schedule than almost any other work would. This means that I’ve been able to spend a lot more time with my son (17yrs, only child) over the past 4+ years than I could have otherwise. I like that.

Thank you for reading this far and for your continued love and support 💙 🙏

Cobli

Cobli is a Series B Startup with 400+ employees. My experience here has been both with new and scaling products.
I'm currently spearheding the construction of a new business unit through the creation of a new product using AI applied to a VSaas.

Senior Product Manager - AI

Results delivered:
- 4.5 million USD saved over the next 5 years. 200k USD only in 1S2024
- I developed and launched the second generation of Cobli’s AI Dashcam. I created the whole launch process, involving areas such as sales, marketing, legal, customer success and operations. 
Since its launch in mid april, it has generated an increase of 240k USD in ARR.

I led two technical/platform squads at Cobli. I oversaw the entire product development process, from business cases to launch and iterations. I defined and pursued product goals aligned with the company's objectives. 
Additionally, I maintained close relationships with key accounts to help close deals and retain potential churn. I acted as the bridge between sales and our tech team. Thanks to this close relationship with CS and Sales, I was Cobli’s PM who visited the most clients in the past two years

Product Manager - IoT

Results delivered:
- Over 400k USD increase in ARR
- 540k USD saved by the end of 2025
- Over 20% reduction in technical support ticket closing time.
- Developed and launched a feature used daily by over 50% of our user base.

I developed and launched a product that enabled the entry of our two largest customers, essential to closing our latest funding round. Today, these products have expanded to the rest of our base. 
Although I had never worked with IoT before, I quickly learned about the subject and became a reference at Cobli, demonstrating my ability to learn and handle technical topics.

Novos caminhos: de construir soluções para levá-las ao mercado

Depois de mais de um ano construindo soluções de IA na dLocal, e vendo em primeira mão o impacto transformador que a tecnologia certa pode gerar, decidi dar um passo que me pareceu natural: sair de quem constrói para quem leva essas soluções ao mercado.

Ao longo da minha carreira como PM, trabalhei com dezenas de frameworks e plataformas de automação e IA. Mas foi na Glean que vi algo diferente: a democratização real da inovação. Vi milhares de agentes sendo criados por qualquer pessoa, não só desenvolvedores, gerando impacto direto no negócio, com adoção massiva, orgânica e consistente. Sem fricção. Sem barreiras técnicas. Só resultados.

Quando você passa anos construindo produtos, aprende a reconhecer quando algo realmente funciona. E a Glean funciona.

Por isso, estou animado em anunciar que me juntei ao time da Glean como a primeira pessoa da empresa na América Latina. Minha missão agora é levar essa mesma transformação que presenciei para mais empresas na região, ajudando times a economizar tempo, reduzir riscos, acelerar crescimento e desbloquear novas possibilidades com IA acessível, segura e poderosa.

Agradeço imensamente ao time da dLocal por todo aprendizado, confiança e oportunidade de construir junto. Agora, é hora de um novo capítulo.

Bora construir o futuro da IA na América Latina? 🚀
