ABOUT THIS EPISODE
How do you actually scale enterprise platforms inside companies like AWS, Google Cloud, and Stripe?
In this episode of Zero to One, I sit down with Bob Krentler, former GM at AWS and Product leader at Stripe and Google Cloud, to break down what it really takes to build, operate, and monetize Enterprise-grade platforms at massive scale.
Bob has led multi-billion dollar product lines, driven Enterprise modernization efforts across the cloud, and built vertical solutions powering some of the world’s most important companies.
We cover:
- The biggest mistakes teams make when modernizing legacy infrastructure
- What AWS taught him about operating at true cloud scale
- The hardest trade-offs in enterprise, including competing with your own partners
- Why every horizontal platform eventually moves vertical, and how Stripe executed it
- What most product leaders get wrong about AI-first product strategy
- How AI is reshaping the role of product, engineering, and decision-making
- Why enterprise requires long-term thinking, not short-term wins
If you’re building for Enterprise, thinking about Platforms, or trying to understand where AI fits into your roadmap, this episode is a masterclass in how the best operators actually think.
