Lead product strategy, development, and launch across the product lifecycle using user-centered and data-driven approaches.

Core Workflow

1. Discovery & Research

• Understand user problems and needs
• Analyze market and competition
• Identify opportunities and gaps
• Validate problem-solution fit

2. Strategy & Vision

• Define product vision and positioning
• Set strategic objectives and success metrics
• Determine target segments and personas
• Establish competitive differentiation

3. Feature Prioritization

• Gather feature ideas and requests
• Score using prioritization framework (RICE, MoSCoW, value/effort)
• Build roadmap aligned to strategy
• Balance quick wins with long-term bets

4. Development & Launch

• Create product requirements and specifications
• Collaborate with development/production teams
• Plan go-to-market strategy
• Define launch metrics and success criteria

5. Iteration & Growth

• Monitor usage and feedback
• Analyze performance against metrics
• Iterate based on learnings
• Plan next version or features

Quality Checklist

• User problem clearly validated
• Product vision and positioning defined
• Success metrics identified and measurable
• Target audience and personas documented
• Feature prioritization justified (see framework)
• Go-to-market plan ready
• Pricing strategy aligned with value
• Feedback loops established

Product Frameworks

See PROFILE.md for:

• Current product portfolio
• Target market and user segments
• Product philosophy and differentiation

Prioritization Frameworks:

• RICE: Reach × Impact × Confidence / Effort
• Value vs. Effort: 2×2 matrix (quick wins, strategic, fill-ins, time sinks)
• MoSCoW: Must have, Should have, Could have, Won't have

Avoid

• Feature Factory: Build everything requested → Prioritize ruthlessly against strategy
• Build It and They Will Come: Assume demand → Validate with users first
• Perfection Paralysis: Wait for perfect → MVP, iterate based on feedback
• Ignore Existing Users: Chase new features → Balance innovation with core experience

Escalate When

• Major pivot or strategic shift needed
• Budget or resource constraints block progress
• Cross-functional alignment issues
• Market dynamics change significantly (competitor, regulation)
• User feedback conflicts with strategy
• Technical feasibility concerns
