Yash Shah

Hi, I'm Yash Shah.

Building the future of OTT, CTV, Streaming & Ad Tech.

I build video platforms across playback, monetization, content operations, AI pipelines, FAST, live streaming, and multi-device apps. Where a buffering event is not a bug report. It is a headline.

Product of the Year · NAB 2023
Recognized for FAST channel playout architecture, SSAI integration, and AI-driven content operations pipeline at WiseDV.
Problems Solved. Products Built.

What my work actually looks like

Three product areas where I have defined the experience, owned the architecture decisions, and iterated on real user behavior.

AI Pipeline
AI-Powered Content Discovery
Replaced a static content grid with an LLM-assisted discovery layer. The pipeline ingests watch history, real-time signals, and editorial weights to surface content that is relevant before users know they want it.
LLM-ranked content rails with real-time personalization
Autoplay trailer triggers on dwell, not just hover
Sports moment surfacing during live events
Human-in-loop editorial override layer
120% engagement lift during live sports

Live Sports WatchParty
Mid-event drop-off during live sports was the core problem. The fix was a synchronized engagement layer built on top of the player, not inside it, so it could not affect playback stability.
WebSocket sync layer decoupled from HLS playback path

AI Operations
AI Content Operations Pipeline
Content ops was a manual bottleneck. Every asset needed human tagging, caption review, and ad breakpoint identification before it could publish. The AI pipeline replaced all three with model-assisted workflows and human review gates.

Let's build something together

Need a Senior PM who connects product strategy, engineering depth, and business outcomes?

I have built products that reach millions of viewers across 12 platform surfaces. I own roadmaps, earn trust from engineering teams, and turn complex infrastructure into things users actually notice. If that is what you are looking for, let's talk.
