Where complex product work becomes clear
I work where a wrong product decision is expensive — and where it is still cheap to catch it.
What I help teams with
ONBOARDING & ACTIVATION
People sign up, then stop. Before you spend more on growth, check whether new users actually reach first value. I go through your product as a new user, with my own test data, find where people stall and why, and give you a prioritised fix list your team can take into the next sprint.
★ Example: Onboarding and activation audit for a founder-led B2B SaaS
MVP SCOPE & PRODUCT DECISIONS
What to build first, what to cut, and what has to be decided before developers start. I turn a founder’s idea or an overgrown backlog into a scope the team can commit to.
COMPLEX PRODUCT LOGIC
User roles, permissions, booking and payment flows, multi-sided marketplace rules, edge cases. This is where most expensive rework starts — usually with a question nobody asked early enough.
★ Example: Self-Service re-platform and slot booking logic for an enterprise SaaS
INTERNAL DATA & REPORTING TOOLS
What data to collect, who needs which answer, and what a dashboard must show. Most reporting tools fail because nobody agreed on the question first.
DELIVERY THAT DOESN’T DRIFT
Refinement, clear acceptance criteria, QA and UAT readiness, release demos. Scrum and Agile where they help the team ship — not as ceremony.
Products I know well
- B2B SaaS, from early-stage to enterprise platforms used by large organisations
- Multi-sided marketplaces and booking platforms
- Internal data collection and reporting tools
- B2C SaaS, including fitness and wellness products
What changed — and what didn’t
AI can write a 30-line ticket in seconds. It does not know which line is wrong for your users, or which question nobody has asked yet.
That part is still the job. I write less than I used to, and I decide more carefully what is worth writing down.
