My main responsibilities as a product manager was to work with the product designers, developers, clients and stakeholders to deliver high quality and enjoyable end products. I helped define our product vision and strategy and as well as plan new product opportunities. My multi-disciplinary background in product design and front-end development gave me a unique ability to outline the product requirements as well as contribute to scoping the development work. Additionally, I contributed as the design manager. In this role, I worked with the product designers to kick-off their tasks as well as provide thorough design reviews. I made sure our designs are clean, consistent and scalable and that we are both following and growing our design system as necessary. I ensure our chosen design strikes a balance between a fantastic user experience as well as being cost efficient to develop. I facilitated negotiations between the product and development team to make that happen.
