Senior Product Leader · 20+ Years in Tech

I steer the product
and the team.

I'm Aminah Cárdenas.

Currently co-leading product at Omnicom on Omni's AI-driven Audience Creation platform. With 20+ years across product and design at Zoom, Intuit, and beyond — I set product direction, build cross-functional alignment, and bring both the business case and the user instinct to every decision.

Point of View

How I Lead

01

Ship with intention

Speed matters, but not at the cost of coherence. Every feature ships with a clear reason and a measurable outcome.

02

Build with evidence

Instinct opens doors. Data walks through them. I ground product decisions in research, not assumptions.

03

Lead with questions

The best product leaders don't have all the answers — they ask the questions that change the direction of the room.

04

Design is a leadership tool

Design fluency isn't a side skill — it's how I evaluate tradeoffs, communicate vision, and hold the bar for quality.

05

Grow the team, not just the product

Shipping is temporary. The team you build and the standards you set outlast any single launch.

06

Protect the craft

When timelines compress, quality is the first thing others cut. I'm the one who pushes back — and proposes the alternative that ships both fast and right.

Track Record

What I've Led

Omnicom Co-leading product development on Omni's AI-driven Audience Creation platform, shaping how the world's largest advertising network targets and builds audiences.
Zoom Inherited an unrealistic timeline, proposed a new strategy, and shipped two products instead of one — Production Studio and Session Branding — both still flagship features three years later.
Intuit Identified a sign-off bottleneck costing engineering teams hours per deployment cycle, then designed a Slack-native approval flow that eliminated the problem — zero new infrastructure required.
Viridos Designed the genomic research platform used by Nobel Prize-winning scientists — establishing the design system and product standards for a biotech startup from the ground up.
