My team was in charge of delivering the best ML inference experience for AWS customers, including those running ML models on AWS and on edge (on-prem servers, mobile, or IOT) devices connected to AWS.

I led product management of Intel Nervana AI accelerator product line. Nervana was one of the first successful startups for AI accelerator chips. As the first PM of Nervana after its acquisition, I helped grew the product (10x) and engineering (30x) team in 2 years. I led strategic planning, established processes and helped the startup group scale via cross BU collaborations. I led the creation of Intel's longer term AI strategy, product roadmap, and drive the execution of deep learning accelerator hardware products and software stacks for customers from hyperscale cloud data centers to the edges. I landed early design wins with tier1 cloud service providers through high-touch business and technical collaborations. My work in jump-starting the performance optimization software effort contributed directly to $1B/yr AI/ML revenue.

I led engagements with big data analytics ecosystem partners for one of the first open source data and machine learning platform (trustedanalytics.org). I recruited cloud service providers (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS), ISVs (data prep, data processing, data analytics, data store, data visualization), and hardware OEMs to join the alliance ecosystem to drive demand and accelerate the creation of cloud native apps driven by big data analytics. I landed PoC, pilot and commercial deployments in Financial Service, Retail and IOT verticals.

I managed a group of product managers for Intel’s Data Center Solid State Drive(SSD) product line.

I brought to market the first data center SoC products at Intel. I built the Xeon D and Atom C product lines for Compute (microserver), Storage, Network, and IoT segments. As the lead PM, I led product strategy and execution from cradle to grave. This includes developing the product roadmap, product positioning, pricing, SKUing, get design wins, drive collaboration with ecosystem partners (OEM/ODM/ISV/Cloud), go-to-market, and launch. In this role, I gained deep knowledge of compute, storage and network building blocks for Cloud, Enterprise IT, HPC and Big Data infrastructure.

I made equity investments in startups in mobile compute ecosystem, including mobile app, touch controllers, batteries and other phone/tablet/PC components.

I drove design wins with hyperscale cloud service providers like AWS, Google and Facebook. I brokered deals and helped these hyperscale customers transition from buying standard off-the-shelf servers to buying custom servers from Taiwanese ODMs at a lower cost. To ramp up and educate the ecosystem, I hosted large-scale industry events, led executive meetings, and managed customer co-marketing activities.

I created and managed marketing programs for netbooks and tablets in emerging markets, including Latin America, Africa, South East Europe and Asia.

I designed IP blocks for microprocessor chips. I led the transition of silicon design flow through 3 process generations. I evaluated design automation software and hardware library IPs and negotiated with the vendors.
