ABOUT MICHAEL SENFTLEBER

I’m a technology and product executive passionate about building innovative solutions, empowering teams, and delivering business results.With over 20 years of experience across B2B SaaS, I’ve led organizations through rapid growth, AI/ML innovation, and cultural transformation. As CTO at Arrive Logistics, I built and led a 250-person organization across product, engineering, UX, and data science—delivering AI/ML-powered pricing, marketplace matching, and GenAI solutions that connected people and platforms at scale. I transformed an IT-centric structure into a product-led organization, growing leaders, aligning incentives, and driving measurable impact while navigating a shift from VC to PE ownership.At Spredfast, I scaled with the team from 30 to over 500 employees, building an enterprise SaaS platform for local to global brands. At Zilliant, I implemented an AI/ML product strategy for pricing optimization and negotiation tools, helping enterprise customers unlock data-driven value. Recently, I took an 18 month sabbatical, traveling full-time with my family across North America in an Airstream. This life-changing experience reconnected me with the importance of delivering meaningful technology and reignited my passion for solving real customer problems. I also stayed close to the leading edge of GenAI—building prototypes, comparing models, and engaging with the very markets that will benefit the most from simple to use innovative products.I’m energized to lead bold, customer-centric product teams that push boundaries and deliver solutions that truly matter.
