ABOUT NATALIA ZAPPERNICK
I\'m a data-driven product & strategy leader passionate about improving agricultural systems through analytics, cross-functional collaboration, and scalable innovation.With a background spanning sustainable farming, tech-enabled systems, and product operations, I specialize in transforming complex challenges into streamlined, high-impact solutions. I thrive at the intersection of agriculture and technology—where real-world outcomes are shaped by data, teamwork, and thoughtful design.My foundation is in Biological Systems Engineering, which gives me a deep understanding of how living systems, infrastructure, and technology converge. That engineering mindset—focused on problem-solving, optimization, and practical design—continues to guide my approach to building smarter processes and data-informed strategies.At Bowery Farming, I led the development and execution of digital tools and continuous improvement initiatives that elevated farm productivity, improved crop health, and bridged R&D with commercial operations. From streamlining material flow models to building data dashboards and leading cross-functional project teams, I’ve delivered solutions that stick—backed by strategy and grounded in impact.My technical toolkit includes SQL, Python, R, and BI-tools like Hex, Mode, and ArcGIS for advanced analytics and visualization. With an engineering foundation and Lean operations mindset, I bring both strategic thinking and hands-on execution to every project.Core Competencies:Product & Operations Strategy | Continuous Improvement | R&D to Production ExecutionData & Analytics (SQL, Python, R, ArcGIS)| Dashboard Development | Data StorytellingCross-functional Leadership | Process Optimization | Technical Writing & Project MgmtI\'m exploring new opportunities in:Technical Product ManagementAgricultural Systems & StrategyProgram ManagmentSustainable Process Design & OptimizationIf you\'re building something meaningful in ag-tech or operations—and need a curious, outcomes-driven leader who connects data with decisions—let’s connect.
