Today on the podcast, I’m joined by Alex Blinov, a product and operations leader who’s helped shape high-performing teams across global companies. Currently at Zendrop, Alex is driving innovation in hybrid fulfillment models, blending technology and operations to empower e-commerce entrepreneurs around the world.
In this conversation, we’ll explore how Alex transformed Zendrop’s product team into a metric-driven, high-velocity unit, his perspective on how AI will reshape fulfillment and global commerce, and the future of product operations in an increasingly remote, AI-assisted world. We’ll also dive into his unique background in physics and economics, and how those disciplines influence his approach to product leadership and strategy.
Beyond work, Alex is a big advocate for personal well-being and balance in leadership, so we’ll discuss how leaders can sustain creativity, health, and decision-making in an era where AI takes over more of the operational load.
Alex has a fascinating mix of rigor, vision, and humanity, and I’m excited to get into it. Let’s dive in.
