Product Manager | Product Strategy & Analytics | Growth & Retention | Engineer-to-PM

Product Manager with 8+ years of combined experience — 1.5 years as APM and 6+ years in software engineering. Experienced in end-to-end product strategy: defining roadmaps, conducting customer and market research, driving data-driven prioritization, and setting KPIs across acquisition, activation, retention, and revenue. Adept at product analytics — using SQL and Google Analytics to monitor funnel metrics, measure feature impact, and optimize customer experience from onboarding through conversion. Engineering background enables deep technical coordination with cross-functional teams (engineering, QA, marketing, sales) without a translation layer — accelerating delivery and reducing ambiguity. Skilled at identifying growth opportunities, competitive gaps, and new outreach channels to improve product profitability and market fit.
