Associate Product Manager

(2021-2023)

  • Product Lifecycle Management Excellence:

    • Managed the entire product lifecycle—from discovery and design to analysis and execution—for three web-based projects focused on client onboarding, which reduced customer support activation time by approximately 80% per call.

  • Global Collaboration and Leadership:

    • Collaborated and negotiated with 10+ engineers, QA, marketers and design professionals in Mexico, USA, Ukraine and Romania.

  • Customer-Centric Insights:

    • Conducted extensive customer interviews, totalling more than 20 hours, which led to the identification of four high-potential growth projects for the team.

  • Data-Driven Decision-Making:

    • Designed our projects’ analytics trackers, interpreted data and built +15 dashboards across FS, Heap and Metabase; which helped in the prioritization of our backlog, project scoping and the creation of a team building exercise post release of a project.

Projects

  • Problem: Users were experiencing difficulties and inefficiencies in activating their devices.

    Goal: Create a streamlined activation flow using QR codes to redirect users to our client page, reducing the activation process to less than 5 steps.

    Results: reduced the time customer support spent activating an account by an average of ~80% per call.

  • Problem: New users were not utilizing all the features of a product, which was affecting their engagement and preventing them from inputting crucial information that impacted their operations.

    Goal: Create a self-onboarding flow that provided a quick walkthrough of the features and prompted them to enter crucial information before they finish it.

    Results: More than 60% of new users who used the 4-step flow successfully completed it and added this information.

  • Objective: This was a personal project to promote team building and instill a sense of ownership and engagement among project contributors.

    Approach: Organized dynamic online team meetings that combined personal bonding activities with data-driven discussions.

    Participants: Invited all project contributors, including designers and marketers.

    Results and Impact:

    • Team members reported increased enthusiasm and motivation following the dynamic meetings.

    • Improved team cohesion and camaraderie as a result of personal bonding activities.

    • Enhanced understanding of product performance, leading to actionable insights for product improvement.

Product Data Analyst

(2020-2021)

  • Product Data Analysis and Recommendations:

    • Presented 95 insights and recommendations; improving user experience to 10 cross-functional product teams in the Retail and SaaS space for both web and native mobile apps.

  • Analytics Platform Management and Team Coaching:

    • Managed FullStory, an analytics platform tracking 20 million sessions annually, and coached 20 team members—including product designers, managers, developers, and customer success professionals—in its use to identify UI bugs, conversion rates, user journeys, and pain points.

  • Tag Management Strategy Implementation and Dashboard Creation:

    • Led the implementation of 11 end-to-end processes within our Tag Management strategy, collaborating closely with product owners to translate business objectives into actionable tasks.

    • Additionally, developed interactive dashboards using Google Data Studio and FullStory, enabling data-driven decisions for backlog prioritization, project scoping, and post-release team development.

Projects

  • Problem: We encountered a significant challenge with our high-traffic product, which incurred substantial costs for tracking all user events in their journeys. This made analysis difficult due to a lack of data.

    Goal: Our aim was to implement an analytics platform capable of monitoring top-performing users based on their activity and identifying the most and least utilized features. This would enable better decision-making for backlog prioritization and facilitate the recognition of top users for feedback collection.

    Solution: Upon learning that User Analytics (UA) was slated to be replaced by GA4, we realized that we no longer needed to concern ourselves with the quantity of events our product generated. This not only alleviated financial concerns but also allowed us to track user interactions with the product using just one event.

    Results: We successfully implemented an event through Google Tag Manager in the product's header code, enabling real-time tracking of user interactions without incurring any financial expenses. Subsequently, I created a dashboard using Google Data Studio, which enabled us to identify the most and least popular features, top users, and product-related issues.

  • I was featured on our company’s blog, you can read the interview here.

I had the pleasure of working with Steph as a Product Manager on a FinTech project. I was immediately impressed by Steph’s ability to bring structure and clarity to complex projects, effectively breaking down goals into achievable tasks that drove successful product launches. Her way of always providing context for each ticket helped me to have a better overview of the project. (...)
