I fix the business,
not just the roadmap.

Product executive. 15+ years building industrial AI platforms, B2B SaaS products, and connected smart device ecosystems in regulated industries across 100+ countries. Three portfolio turnarounds. Three org builds. Three times the methodology transferred, only the industries changed.

I build product organizations from scratch and ship globally.

Org Build

Led 50+ engineers and PMs across the US, Europe, and Asia within a $44B parent. Built team of 20+ across five departments for a global B2B technology company, founding three from the ground up. Managed innovation teams at a $600M manufacturer. Recruited and hired global teams for business ventures.

International

100+ markets. 40+ localizations. Quarterly boards with Germany. Development teams in Romania, India, China, and France. Fortune 500 enterprises and SMB customers across six continents. Every culture has a different team operating rhythm and customer norms. Learn it, respect it, and ship the product.

Cross-Industry

My methodology works across industries, digital and physical. B2B SaaS. Geospatial and construction. Aerospace and defense. Manufacturing and machining. Telematics and logistics. Medical devices and healthcare. Energy, utility, and government. The industry is variable. The methodology is constant.

Nick Richardi — product executive specializing in industrial AI, B2B SaaS, and IoT platform leadership

Most recently Head of Product at DCI, where I led a product portfolio turnaround across 100+ export-controlled markets. Before that, I built PLG data platforms and scaled B2B SaaS products at Zonar Systems (Continental AG, $44B). Before that, I launched enterprise data platforms and edge IoT solutions at Rehrig Pacific Company across 23 industries and Fortune 500 accounts.

Now I'm looking for the next thing to build.
