Adam Paul — AI Product, Program & Portfolio Manager

01 / ADAMPMP.COM Present

Blast Off Apps, operating as AdamPMP.com — independent AI product portfolio

Dec 2023 — Present · Remote

0→1 IN DAYS, NOT MONTHS
DISCOVERY → PRD → DEPLOY
OPENAI · ANTHROPIC · GEMINI

Lead product strategy and full-stack development for AI SaaS products — from discovery and PRDs through model selection and deployment — compressing 0-to-1 cycles from months to days through reusable AI workflow automation.
Built AI Oracle (aioracleapp.com), a decision-memory SaaS that turns notes and decisions into searchable institutional memory — surfacing conflicts, supporting evidence, and prior context inside Google Docs, Sheets & Slides via a browser extension.
Built Engagento, a multi-tenant B2B SaaS, end-to-end with Claude Code as AI coding partner — design to production deployment in one week, reducing a 30-minute manual workflow to under a minute.
Built the Present Platform from a customer-discovery conversation with a 100-year-old business's marketing director — launched in under two weeks, cutting post-creation from 10 minutes to under 60 seconds.
Took Source-Surf from concept to launch in under two months, automating admin tasks so independent educators could focus on 1:1 instruction.
Integrated OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini APIs across the portfolio — retry logic, token budgeting, streaming responses, and RAG pipelines (OpenAI embeddings + pgvector) in production.

Led enterprise projects with cross-functional teams of 30–50 executives, directors, and senior personnel, coordinating regulatory compliance with technical product development.
Led a Tableau integration into Naehas' SaaS offering — scoping data pipelines, reporting configuration, and post-launch validation.
Led a proof-of-concept for a global banking institution, surfacing compliance and integration gaps that fed directly into the company's POC-to-contract playbook.

Built the products that became the consultancy's moat

MERCURY PLATFORM · 5/5
QUOTE TIME: 1HR → <10 MIN
WORKFLOWS −80% MANUAL

Designed and led 0-to-1 development of the 5/5-rated Mercury Platform, a dual-sided SaaS (AWS, React) — a client-facing board with full visibility into developer progress, synced to an internal Kanban flow that kept technical chatter contained.
Built the ML-driven quoting engine inside Mercury — applying a physics and linear-algebra background well ahead of ML's commoditization — cutting quote turnaround from over an hour to under 10 minutes and surfacing competitive feature gaps via similarity matching.
Created Agile-as-a-Service, an embedded three-person Scrum team (PM, Scrum Master, developer) billed at a premium $81/hr blended rate — driving roughly 3× retention and 10× revenue per client.
Cut manual workflow overhead ~80% through user-centred design methodologies and intelligent automation via the Mercury Platform.
