Senior Product Manager
Shem Nyachieo, MBA
I run product for AI and data platforms, and I build them. At AWS I helped move $100M+ in enterprise AI and cloud opportunities and owned an internal platform holding 60,000+ architecture assets. I founded FalcoScan and wrote its LLM workflows, data model, and release plan myself, growing it to 1,000+ users. By the time I bring a roadmap to engineering, I have checked whether the data supports it.

Founder & Product Manager · Austin, TX
Built and own the product end to end, including the LLM workflows, API integrations, data pipeline, product experience, and release strategy. I use customer behavior and feedback to improve activation and shorten the path from a user's first login to their first actionable result.

2019–2024
Senior Product Manager · Arlington, VA
Built internal platform tools that helped technical teams find, reuse, and adapt proven architecture instead of starting from scratch. Alongside the platform work, I led discovery with public sector and commercial customers to understand their requirements and shape solutions across contact center, data platforms, AI/ML, and cloud. I translated those needs into product requirements, solution strategies, and reusable assets, working with engineering and cross-functional teams through delivery and adoption.
