About

GREGORY LIFANOV, product manager

I build platform and customer experience systems that remain stable, trustworthy, and scalable as products grow and change. I’m especially drawn to high constraint environments where clarity, ethics, and long term durability matter more than speed alone.

By formal training, I come from design and systems thinking. By professional experience, I’m a Product Manager who has owned complex, customer facing systems in regulated fintech environments. Over the past several years, I’ve worked across product strategy, AI driven support systems, onboarding flows, and compliance aware UX, consistently focused on turning complexity into clarity and helping teams make sound tradeoffs under real constraints.

A defining pattern in my work is helping products become acquisition ready by design. The companies and platforms I’ve worked on were not “cleaned up at the end,” but built from the start with durable systems, clear customer experience, and operational maturity. My contributions helped create product foundations that held up under growth, diligence, and transition, ultimately supporting successful acquisitions.

I’m most energized by work at the intersection of product, engineering, and operations, where decisions have lasting impact on users, teams, and the long term future of the business.
