BlogProduct & strategy
Hybrid profile: product + implementation
Translate business into a technical backlog and close the loop to production: fewer handoffs, more ownership.
The gap between “the idea” and “it’s in prod”
I’ve been a Product Owner, Project Manager, and Applications Administrator. That mix avoids telephone tag: the person who understands the problem also knows how to wire it.
What it looks like in practice
- Roadmap in business language + technical acceptance criteria
- Prioritization by impact (hours, conversion, risk)
- Short weekly demos — not endless slide decks
- Minimum viable docs so the team can operate
When this profile fits
Startups and SMBs that need someone to design the system and leave it running: CRM, bots, dashboards, flows. Not just another ticket on a third-party backlog.
If “no one between teams closes it” sounds familiar, that’s usually exactly the gap I cover.
