About Eric
Senior Product Manager with nearly a decade of experience at the intersection of Music & Technology building cutting-edge B2B and B2C SaaS products.
Proven track record of leading cross-functional teams of back-end & front-end engineers, data scientists, data analysts, designers and operational teams in remote and Agile settings to develop complex, data-driven SaaS products backed by AI technologies and Cloud infrastructure, presented on user-centric dashboards and apps.
My latest achievement is to have spearheaded the creation of an innovative music identification system capable of monitoring radios & TVs all over the world in quasi-real time 24/7. The technology developed by my team outperforms Shazam in terms of performance, cost, and scalability thanks to leveraging the latest Deep Learning innovations and Cloud solutions. The results are ultimately packaged as products for different use-cases & user profiles on a Web & Mobile App.
In 2015, I transitioned from a background in macroeconomics research for international institutions to transfer my analytical skills and critical thinking to drive innovation in the music ecosystem - my passion field.
