FRACTIONAL CHIEF PRODUCT OFFICER
Senior product leadership without the full-time overhead.
I help growth-stage companies and non-technical founders turn ambiguity into a roadmap, a team that ships, and products customers trust. 15+ years leading product in FinTech and SaaS, from first prototype to platforms used by millions.
15+ years in product leadership
Millions of consumers served on platforms I've led
FinTech, credit, identity and wealth-tech
Built AI prototypes at zero added overhead
Where I've led product
The problem I solve
No product leader yet.
You're past founder-led product but not ready for a $300K+ CPO hire.
A team that's busy, not shipping.
Plenty of activity, unclear outcomes, a roadmap nobody believes.
AI and compliance pressure.
You need to move fast on AI without tripping over regulators, bureaus or partners.
The professional dilettante
One leader. The coverage of five specialists.
I call myself a professional dilettante and I mean it as a feature. My career spans product, engineering, UX design, compliance, data and creative production. I've written the PRD, built the front end, designed the UI, cut the product video and scored the music for it. For a growth-stage company that means fewer handoffs, faster decisions and one person who can talk credibly to your engineers, your designers, your compliance team and your board.
How we can work together
When AI arrived, I didn't wait for a team.
When the AI wave hit, my company had no in-house AI competency. Rather than wait for budget and headcount, I built the company's first AI prototypes myself, using early vibe-coding tools and hands-on technical product knowledge, at zero added overhead. That's the kind of leverage I bring to every engagement.

What people say
Recommendations from executive peers and founders on LinkedIn.
I had the pleasure of working closely with Eric on several initiatives, and he consistently stood out as a multi-disciplinary product leader. He stays current with emerging technology and moves quickly to prototype, test, and validate new ideas. Eric asks thoughtful questions, examines the reasoning behind the data, and turns insights into clear product decisions.
Eric and I worked closely together at Credit Sesame for 4 years. I found Eric to be conscientious, thoughtful, creative and a genuine nice person. He was extremely hard working and often went above and beyond the call of duty without being asked. I would recommend Eric to anyone lucky enough to hire him.
Eric has been an amazing member of my team in two different Companies. He is dedicated and loyal. In addition to being very organized and professional, he is a very creative and talented artist. He is a great team player and has excellent communications skills. He is easy to work with and is a great asset to any organization.
I had the pleasure of working with Eric for nearly two years. At the time, he was the Product Manager of a Financial Advisory firm's CRM software program. As a financial adviser using the CRM software, I collected data and input from other advisers and provided him with feedback on what were important elements to be included in the program. He was very responsive, open and professional during all of our sessions and implemented the changes swiftly. Highly recommend him!
