Jacob M. — Product Manager
I lead program operations and execution for American Express's enterprise cloud and data platform modernization, working within Global Services Group (GSG) to enable the migration of business-critical platforms—customer servicing, credit and collections, cardmember acquisition, and fraud detection—from legacy systems to Google Cloud Platform (GCP). My work sits at the intersection of product strategy, platform engineering, and enterprise delivery. I operationalize cloud roadmaps, prioritize use cases, validate architectural decisions, and own the execution mechanics: onboarding, environment provisioning, cross-team coordination, and production readiness. I ensure complex initiatives move efficiently from design through compliant, production-ready deployment. A significant part of my role is enabling visibility and control at scale. I build and maintain portfolio governance frameworks and executive-facing reporting that help senior leaders monitor progress, manage risk, make informed prioritization decisions, and track adoption across multi-year transformation initiatives. Previously, I supported the Finance portfolio, delivering highly regulated financial and reporting platforms to cloud infrastructure. That experience gave me deep exposure to governed data environments, regulatory requirements, and risk-sensitive workloads—expertise I now apply across GSG's customer-facing and operational platforms. I specialize in translating complex platform strategy into delivered outcomes in highly regulated, enterprise environments where strong operations, disciplined execution, and clear communication are essential to driving large-scale change.
