Melanie Oei Email & Phone Number

Melanie Oei is a Product leader with 12+ years of building products that customers love at Gusto. Colleagues describe them as "I was fortunate to be one of Melanie’s direct reports on the Product team at Magoosh. From day one, her empathic leadership, strategic intelligence, and clear communication style inspired confidence in her capacity as a people manager. Melanie has an exceptional ability to bring a product lens to bear on complex problems. She leads by example, balancing a strong work ethic with a healthy dose of conviviality with the entire team. Moreover, she is fabulous as a coach and mentor. Melanie would be a credit to any company she chooses to involve herself with and has my highest recommendation.", "Melanie is an outstanding mentor that is willing to go out of her way to help you learn. What makes her great is her thoughtfulness, attention to detail, and skill of helping you become a better thinker. Her Product Management course at General Assembly always fostered great discussion, which would leave us with new insights, ideas, and perspectives to think about when setting forth on executing our own ideas. Personally, Melanie's ability to communicate stories from her own career as a product manager were key to my growing understanding of business. I'm sure that her skills as a mentor, product manager, and communicator will translate to success in any organization that she's in.", and "Melanie made sure my time at GA’s Product Management Bootcamp was worthwhile – I don’t even regret missing the Super Bowl for it. As both a teacher and PM, Melanie is one of the best communicators I’ve ever met. She has the ability to distill complex ideas into concise, meaningful messages, all while rooting them in practical context and an immense amount of personal experience. Melanie constantly framed content and feedback to connect to every student, despite us coming from a huge range of developer/designer/marketing backgrounds, and handled the bootcamp so efficiently that we never went off time (even as no question went unanswered). Plus Melanie was just straight up fun to be around. She was always approachable but proactively kept every student engaged for 8+ hours through a rainy, drab SF Sunday. I'm still surprised and beyond thrilled to find that a one day bootcamp has actually stuck with me."
