Senior🎓
Top SchoolJames Gill is a product leader and founder based in Melbourne with 12+ years delivering platform, payments and data/AI products across regulated industries (fintech, travel, telco). He runs Pixel River, an independent consultancy that helps enterprises define product strategy, align stakeholders, and ship measurable outcomes under real-world constraints, having driven results like £105M B2B pipeline enablement, a 25% contact-centre handling-time cut via GenAI, and £17M uplift from ML personalisation. Comfortable operating in high-volume transactional and compliance-heavy environments, he combines practical expertise in KYC/KYB/AML, Open Banking/PSD2, PCI-DSS and payments integrations with experience building safe ML and GenAI rollouts. He’s adept at rapid discovery-to-MVP cycles and creating repeatable rollout patterns that reduce marginal costs for scale. A detail people don’t always expect: between contracts he built Synthea, an AI audio-intelligence prototype indexing ~1,500 podcast episodes, showing hands-on experimentation with RAG and vector retrieval.
