Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJason Lin is a CEO- and board-level operator who blends hands-on digital product leadership with an investor’s discipline, having scaled five unicorns and driven over $5B in attributable revenue across consumer, tech, and CPG. He has owned $300M+ P&Ls, led companies through multi-billion-dollar exits, and excels at turning inflection points into sustainable growth via go-to-market reinvention and AI-enabled personalization. As a fractional executive and interim CEO/President/CXO, he partners with Boards, founders, and PE/VC backers to prepare companies for scale, IPO, or sale across $500M–$4B valuations. Recent roles include tripling digital growth as Nutrabolt’s first Global CDO and reversing Vital Proteins’ e-commerce decline to 5X growth ahead of its acquisition by Nestlé. Jason combines global experience—fluency in Mandarin and years living/working in China—with academic credentials from Michigan, UCLA, and MIT, and regularly guest lectures on AI and digital strategy at UC Berkeley Haas. Less obvious: he pairs startup founder sensibilities (two exits) with major-retailer campaign experience, enabling rapid, repeatable scaling from grassroots to enterprise.
