Andrew Giacomi

I'm an accomplished Product Leader with experience across technology and finance who's passionate about leveraging technology to drive business growth and improve user experiences. Most recently, I led efforts across both Product & Business Development at Standard Metrics, a financial software company where I helped lead sales from $0 to over $1.5 million in less than a year. I also led a product team building financial & operational metric tracking and investor relations software supporting thousands of early-stage, venture-backed companies. Before Standard Metrics, I spent over five years at Waze and Google developing scalable operational tools, front ends, serving optimization models and infrastructure for digital & physical advertisers focused on significantly improving user experience and advertiser outcomes. Notably, I led the launch of the Waze Ads Management API, doubling user adoption and converting nearly 50% of Waze Ads Reseller revenue to API usage, co-led a redesign of the Waze Ads Manager platform for all Waze Local advertisers, and a number of efforts focused on unifying location tracking across Waze, Google, & 3P sources. Earlier in my career, I worked in finance as an Investment Banker and Trading Analyst, managing cross-product efforts on 20 domestic and cross-border technology transactions, totaling $3B. I hold an MBA from The University of Pennsylvania - Wharton School with a focus in Entrepreneurial Management and Marketing & Operations Management, and a BS from Tufts University in Computer Engineering.
