Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEmad Hasan is a product leader with 9 years in AI-driven product and analytics roles, now building faster-to-market AI products from Santa Monica for Amazon and advising startups and VCs. He has founded and scaled Retina (raised $13M, 40+ product launches, strong retention) and Xpertly, pairing hands-on data science and engineering (R/Python) with commercial strategy to drive recurring revenue and large pipelines. At Facebook and PayPal he built analytics platforms and automated measurement tools that informed global marketing and product decisions, and earlier roles in aerospace and defense honed his systems and controls engineering rigor. Emad focuses on unlocking data and distribution advantages for businesses—helping brands solve launch cold-starts at Amazon and advising PE/VC-backed firms on valuation-driving AI opportunities. A not-obvious thread through his career is translating low-level technical work (original code, ML prototypes, telemetry analysis) into repeatable product processes and investor-ready outcomes.
