AI Scribe Team

  • Led early AI initiatives and customer discovery as Senior Product Manager, conducting user interviews, market analysis, and pharmacy workflow observations to identify pain points in structured documentation and ideate voice-automated solutions.
  • Built working prototypes across multiple iterations — coding and testing early versions of the AI scribe before handing off to engineering for production-ready development.
  • Directed a cross-functional pod (4 engineers + 1 designer) to build AI-powered form-filling features using transcription models; enabled auto-population of complex pharmacy forms from pharmacist-patient conversations or direct dictation.

Impact

  • Reduced pharmacist documentation time from ~30 minutes to under 7 minutes per form by implementing voice-driven AI that intelligently mapped spoken details to structured fields, enhancing accuracy and compliance in patient records.
  • Deployed feature that reduced time spent on manual healthcare data entries by 400+ hours weekly across 1,000+ pharmacies.

Discovery & Feedback

  • Developed a secure feedback system to gather real-time user insights from pharmacists, collecting 300+ data points from beta customers to enhance transcription accuracy and usability, authenticated with one-time secure tokens.
  • Owned full product lifecycle: backlog prioritization, UI screen design, agile retrospectives, feature development, customer discovery, and market research; contributed hands-on code for prototyping and iteration.
  • Drove stakeholder demos, feedback integration, and vendor partnerships for real-time transcription; boosted operational efficiency and user satisfaction in pharmacy clinical services.
