Hi cartech1k,
Thanks for reaching out with your profile. Based on your experience level, I would primarily target part-time programs (sometimes called evening/weekend or EWMBA) whereas EMBA programs are typically for senior managers / executives with at least 7-10 years experience.
Aside from that, I really like that you've already positioned yourself at a FAANG company and a part-time MBA should allow you to pivot to a product role, especially if you're already taking some initiative now to get some exposure.
I also love your extracurriculars! Things like the comedy podcast host and the eSports announcing are pretty unique and definitely worth mentioning! (They also tell me you'll likely have good communication skills and be a strong participant in class discussions).
In terms of your stats, you are close to the averages for the top part-time programs on your list. Take Haas for example -- their average GMAT is 700, and average GPA is 3.46. You're right there on the GPA but a bit more on your GMAT could help. Especially since you just took it and made such a big jump already in your score (nice work!) I might give it one more shot and see if you can crack 700 (assuming you have time).
Hope that helps, and good luck!
