Hi T***m, I’m J***e, an HR Recruiter at StrategyBrain working with P***I. I came across your profile and was impressed by your journey co-founding R***e and driving its B2B payments and innovation strategy. We’re looking for a Chief Product and Data Innovation Officer to lead product vision, advanced analytics, and cross-functional teams at P***I, and your background seems like a fantastic fit. Would you be open to a brief chat to explore this opportunity? Best regards, J***e

Hi T***m, Great to hear you’re intrigued. At P***I our product vision is to build the next-generation B2B payments and invoicing platform that not only automates routine workflows but also delivers predictive, data-driven insights. We’re combining machine learning, econometric modeling and user-centric design to help our customers forecast cash flow, optimize payment timing and streamline reconciliation across complex vendor networks. On the analytics side, our priorities right now are threefold: 1. Establishing a scalable analytics framework and data governance layer so every decision is backed by reliable, real-time metrics. 2. Developing advanced econometric and statistical models for customer segmentation, credit risk scoring and churn prediction. 3. Running structured A/B tests and iterative experiments to continuously refine the user experience and drive measurable growth. Does that align with the kind of strategic, analytics-driven product work you’ve been looking to lead? If so, I’d love to set up a quick call to dive deeper and hear more about your own goals. What does your availability look like over the next few days? Best, J***e

Hi T***m, Great,Thursday at 10:00 AM CT is confirmed. Reporting structure: you’ll report directly to our CEO (a co-founder) and will be a key member of the executive leadership team. Team composition: our analytics function is currently a tight-knit group of about six professionals (data scientists, analytics engineers, and analysts), while the product organization includes three product managers and two UX designers. In total you’ll lead and collaborate with roughly 10 team members, with broader engineering and design partners at your disposal. Looking forward to our conversation on Thursday! Best, J***e

Hi T***m, Our CEO (one of P***I’s co-founders) brings a strong payments and technology pedigree. He’s deeply invested in data-driven product innovation, sets a clear strategic vision, and runs a collaborative, empowering leadership style,he’ll define the “why” and the high-level goals, then give you the autonomy and support to own the “how.” On data governance, we’ve built the initial foundations,a centralized data warehouse, automated ingestion pipelines, baseline quality checks and naming conventions. We see this as a core priority for your role. You’ll have full ownership to evolve it into a real-time metrics layer and A/B-testing engine, with a dedicated analytics team (6+ data scientists and engineers), direct budget for tooling and infrastructure, and close partnership with our product and engineering squads. Looking forward to unpacking this further on Thursday at 10:00 AM CT. Let me know if you’d like any pre-read materials or if you’d like our CEO to join part of the conversation. Best, J***e

Hi T***m, Here’s a high-level view of our current setup: • Data warehouse: We maintain a centralized cloud warehouse that consolidates all transactional, product and usage data into one source of truth. • ETL/orchestration: Our analytics engineering team has built automated ingestion pipelines and orchestrated workflows to pull data from payment rails, our application API and external sources into the warehouse. • Governance & metrics: We’ve put in place baseline quality checks, naming conventions and a standards library, but this is exactly the layer you’d own and evolve into a real-time metrics and A/B-testing ecosystem. I’ve just sent over two documents for your review before Thursday’s call: 1) Our data governance framework (outlining roles, processes and quality guardrails) 2) A metric-definition spec (key KPIs, definitions and data lineage notes) Let me know if you’d like any additional context or if you’d prefer to connect with our analytics lead in advance. Looking forward to unpacking this on Thursday at 10:00 AM CT! Best, J***e

Hi T***m, We currently run S***e on A***S as our central cloud warehouse. For data transformation we use d***t, and A***w handles orchestration. Ingestion is managed via our in-house pipelines fed from payment rails and API sources. I’ve looped in our Analytics Lead, S***h C***n (cc’d), who oversees our data modeling standards and A/B-testing stack. S***h, could you sync with T***m for a 20-minute chat? T***m, would Wednesday at 3:00 PM CT or Thursday at 9:00 AM CT work for you? Looking forward to our Thursday 10:00 AM CT call as well,let me know what slot you prefer for the pre-call sync. Best, J***e

Great,Wednesday at 3:00 PM CT is locked in. S***h will send you a calendar invite shortly and come prepared to walk through how we organize our d***t projects (model layering, directory structure, test suites, snapshots, etc.) and the tooling and dashboards we’ve built to monitor model health and A/B-test metrics. If anything else comes up before our Thursday 10:00 AM CT conversation, just let me know. Looking forward to both chats! Best, J***e
