What I do
As a Product Manager, I am the voice of the customer on my Product Development team and work with design, engineering and quality assurance specialists to help them produce valuable solutions for our customers. In addition, I meet our clients regularly to evangelise our product and learn from their experience.
Product Strategy
I use theme-based roadmaps to articulate how I intend to realise our product strategy statements for founders and senior stakeholders on our Product Council. I present prioritised experiments and opportunities we'll tackle Now, Next and Later to delight our customers.
Product Discovery
I work with founders, customers, and colleagues to uncover the motivations behind apparent unmet needs, pain points or desires to become more knowledgeable about the problem space. Once armed with this information, I identify those worth pursuing beyond experimentation to realise a positive outcome via our product.
Product Development
I work closely with UI/UX Designers, Engineering colleagues to nurture opportunities through the ideation process, from the initial idea through to design, delivery and customer launch. I utilise product narratives, wireframes and user stories to communicate the desired outcome for our customers.
