Her impact was swift and substantial. Within a matter of months, she was also entrusted with the role of Product Owner for the Operational Excellence team. This team's mission is to ensure that all platforms are secure, reliable, scalable, and dependable, accomplished through the implementation of Agile, SRE, and DevOps best practices. In 2021, Sandra's leadership and expertise were further recognized when she was appointed as Vice President and Product Manager for JP Morgan Chase's API Marketplace. In this pivotal role, she guides the vision, roadmap, and implementation for the API Marketplace and Gateway Platform, aiming to deliver best-in-class solutions. Sandra oversees the API marketplace portfolio, driving continuous innovation and technology modernization to enhance security, reliability, and performance. Furthermore, she actively mentors, develops, and leads her direct reports and teams, empowering them to advance their skillsets and achieve their career aspirations.
