Summary
Michael Dehaven is a results-driven technology executive who blends hands-on engineering with strategic product leadership to build platforms used by millions and to unstick growth-stage companies. As a builder who ships 0-to-1 products and engineers durable infrastructure, he has architected payment systems, search and discovery platforms, and RAG-powered conversational AI that supported major revenue outcomes like unlocking $1M+ MRR and 87% churn reduction. He’s led digital and product organizations end-to-end—scaling a B2B2C platform to 5M users, deploying systems across 2,000+ enterprise sites, and driving 3x conversion improvements through data-informed experiments. Comfortable in regulated domains from HealthTech to MarTech, he combines taxonomy-driven search, API design, and pragmatic ML integration to deliver long-lived systems still in production a decade later. Based in Cedar Park, Texas, he keeps a strong bias for shipping: writing specs, running experiments, and recruiting teams while staying deeply technical.
