Feed App was an e‑commerce startup based in San Francisco, specializing in quick commerce, social commerce, and marketplace solutions. After roughly 2.5 years of operation, the company unfortunately ceased trading. During that time, I managed four distinct products and liaised with stakeholders across Marketing, Sales, Operations, and Customer Support. At its peak, daily orders reached up to 1,000. The business secured $25 million in funding. The company employs over 200 people. During this period, I developed four products from scratch and managed over five integrations, overseeing mock‑up creation, feature prioritization, process mapping, communication with engineering teams, development testing, and post‑launch performance measurement.
