Profile: https://flows.cv/giany

I’m a product engineer who focuses on turning ideas into real, shipped products through fast iteration, good judgment, and UX-first thinking.

I’m a cofounder at AGFarms, a venture studio where I work with a cofounder and partners to build scalable products with small teams. My role sits at the intersection of product direction, UX, engineering execution, data analytics, and growth, with hands-on involvement from discovery through production.

Our leading product is DerbyFish, a live consumer platform where I focus on product vision, business models, growth loops, and core systems, while collaborating closely with engineering partners to keep execution moving.

Previously, I built a production AI matching system at OWM, helping turn subjective “vibe” matching into a more structured, data-driven system that improved product outcomes.

I enjoy working close to users and stakeholders, translating ambiguous needs into concrete systems, deploying solutions into real environments, and operating in teams that value ownership, speed, and clear thinking over process for its own sake.
