I turn strategy into a backlog the team can actually ship—without losing users or engineering reality.
Background: 10+ years in product (gamedev, fintech, e-commerce, healthtech). Software engineering roots: I read technical trade-offs, write acceptance criteria engineers trust, and tie sprint goals to metrics.
What I own: roadmap & backlog, stakeholder alignment, discovery, Design Thinking workshops, MVP scoping, release planning.
Wins: scaled digital products in corps; built A/B test pipelines; mentored PMs into ownership.
Now: solopreneur—same PO discipline, faster cycles with AI agents, PMF tested in the open.
Lesson: a strong PO makes trade-offs explicit and keeps everyone honest about why we're building.
