Summary
Want a Senior Product Manager with recent coding experience? Not only do I have lots of product management experience, but also I have spent the last several years coding while "retired". Here is how to tell if someone loves software: early retirement. If someone was able to retire early and ended up writing serious code in his spare time anyway, that person is a software lover. As a computer scientist at-heart, I have recently built responsive CSS Grid designs for mobile devices and desktop browsers, big, beautiful TV apps and model-view-control (MVC) frameworks from-scratch on the front-end to Python REST request/response servers handshaking with SQLite databases on the back-end. And yes, I have top-notch product management skills. Product Management Skills Summary • User needs/opportunities analysis • Create product/innovation vision • Document products in straightforward PRDs/user stories • Document product strategic alignment and benefits in MRDs • Work with UX for key wireframes/mock-ups/prototypes • Lead on-boarding meetings with executive sponsors and stakeholders • Create/maintain product roadmaps • Lead cross-functional product teams of engineers, UX, ops and data scientists • Lead cross-functional product readiness teams with marketing, legal, accounting and privacy • Guide products through development, test and marketing launch I am currently seeking a Sr. Software Product Management or software development position in the San Francisco Bay Area.
