Instructor
At Google, I’ve worked in Ads, Shopping and AI. I'm currently a Google ML Product Leader on the Google Machine Learning infrastructure team scaling ML globally. I've worked and founded many of Googles on-device machine learning infrastructure to multi-billion devices, build and scale out our compiler infrastructure through multi-level intermediate representation with Chris Lattner and helped scale and build the broader ML team and product.
I now lead Product for Google ML APIs (Tensorflow/JAX), Compilers (XLA & MLIR) and Runtime infrastructure for Server (CPU/GPU/TPU) and On-Device ML (Mobile/Micro/Web) covering billions of devices.
I'm an entrepreneur at heart and have extensive experience in leading dynamic teams towards rapid growth and scaling disruptive ideas.
I teach product management to new and experienced PMs through a series of online courses at Infinite Series. If you are interested in mastering Product Management you should definitely sign up. You are unlikely to get better value in a course anywhere on the internet.
I've raised venture capital from top Bay Area angels and venture capitalists for my previous startup, rapidly grown a startup to more than a $10M GMV run-rate, and recruited and managed large teams.
I'm Australian and grew up in Melbourne where the startup scene wasn't really in existence 10 years ago. I'm passionate about all things Australia too.
