GTM & Revenue Operations · Applied AI · New York

Hi, I'm
Cydni.

I build systems that scale. 10+ years at the intersection of commercial strategy and execution from a $4B+ revenue program at Meta to AI systems in production today.

My Approach

How I think
about building.

Systems First

Every program, workflow, or product I've touched is designed to run without me. That means documenting the logic, making decisions explicit, and handing off something others can own and extend.

Iterative by Default

The first version is never the right version. I've launched pilots that failed and rebuilt them into programs generating $250M/quarter. The work is in understanding what broke and fixing it structurally.

Cross-Functional at the Core

The best outcomes I've driven came from aligning people who didn't naturally agree. Data science, engineering, sales, product I've coordinated across all of them without formal authority.

What I've built.

Real-Time Generation · RAG · Flask

Drift Two-Phase LLM Pipeline

Takes unstructured emotional input and generates a personalized guided meditation in real time. Two-stage Claude architecture with a local RAG layer across three curated knowledge bases.

Multi-Region Lookup · GPT · Brand Adapters

Price Scope Multi-Market Intelligence

Takes a US product URL and returns prices across US, UK, and EU with exchange-rate comparisons. Iterating from LLM-based retrieval toward a deterministic brand-adapter architecture.

What Colleagues Say

In their words.

"

What chaos needs is order. What comes to mind when I think about your time here is exactly that. You brought fresh ideas, leveled up thinking, and left behind systems that will stand the test of time. The stuff that co-workers and managers dream of.

She partnered with a wide range of cross-functional teams and drove great and growing results for almost every project she led. She set a great precedent for how the team can materially influence regions and exponentially grow impact via engineering partners.

…it has been a grind, that is the life of a startup operator. Nonetheless, I struggle to think of anyone I've worked with who better withstood the heat.

Colleague, Eco

I'm currently exploring senior GTM, revenue operations, and AI-forward leadership roles. If something here resonates, I'd love to talk.
