Qlik
Led a team of ML engineers to accelerate Qlik's long-term roadmap, defining high-level strategy and developing new capabilities across emerging media platforms. My approach is driven by a deep empathy for customer needs paired with a passion for creative, data-driven innovation. With extensive experience in prototyping and global thought leadership—ranging from executive briefings to conference keynotes—I have navigated the company's evolution over 10 years through previous roles as Director of Product Management and Sr. Solution Architect.
As the lead of the Applied Research team, I orchestrated systematic investigations into cutting-edge technologies to identify high-value organic & inorganic strategic opportunities and anticipate market disruptions. My work centered on a rigorous methodology that translated complex technical breakthroughs into actionable business intelligence. By developing a framework encompassing executive briefings, deep-dive technical assessments, and implementation guidance, my team provided the foundational research necessary for stakeholders to navigate the "Build/Buy/Partner" spectrum. This approach ensured that emerging innovations were strategically integrated into the organizational context to drive future-proof investments.
My research portfolio covered the full spectrum of the modern digital landscape, with a primary focus on the AI ecosystem throughout the information value lifecycle. I led deep-dives into agentic frameworks, autonomous orchestration and governance platforms, and immersive analytics platforms that leverage extended reality for advanced data exploration and storytelling. This practice enabled enhanced decision-making while establishing a common operating picture for navigating the rapidly evolving paradigms of autonomous reasoning and secure data collaboration.
