About Kristen Olson
I’m a Lead Product Manager focused on building platform and AI-enabled products in complex enterprise environments.I specialize in early-stage platform incubation—taking ambiguous, high-risk ideas from concept through pilot, validation, and adoption into production roadmaps. Most of my work sits at the intersection of backend systems, AI workflows, and user-facing experiences.Currently at Jaguar Land Rover, I own a pre-production AI platform designed to orchestrate user intent across vehicle systems, digital agents, and enterprise services. I work closely with engineering, architecture, legal, security, and data teams to validate desirability, feasibility, and viability before scale.Previously, I’ve led platform and marketplace products at Matter Supply, global eCommerce and internal platforms at Adidas, and end-to-end commerce systems at NAU. I’m known for translating ambiguity into clear strategy, earning trust across disciplines, and delivering systems that actually get adopted.Interested in platform, AI, and systems-level product roles where the problems are real and the constraints matter.
