About Perry Claunch

I drive innovation for building platforms that establish and protect trust in enterprise voice and messaging.As a senior product leader, I specialize in turning complex, regulated domains—fraud prevention, call security, and enterprise communications—into scalable platforms used by thousands of enterprises and trusted by tier-1 mobile network operators.My work operates at the intersection of product strategy, and platform execution. I lead high-impact initiatives spanning applied machine learning, generative AI, and telecom—designing products that balance innovation, reliability, and compliance in high-stakes environments.I bring a systems-level mindset to product leadership, focusing on platforms, ecosystems, and long-term leverage rather than isolated features. I work hands-on with IC product leaders and deeply technical teams, aligning executive vision to real-world execution.I’m actively involved in industry forums and standards bodies, including GSMA, MWC, MEF, and related working groups, and I regularly support enterprise sales conversations—translating complex technical value into clear, customer-driven outcomes.The future of enterprise communications is AI-first, secure and transparent.
