Newsletter Author, Podcast Host

Apollo.io

Product leader when the company became a unicorn ($750M->$2.5B valuation).

I led several product teams, including the growth team, pricing & packaging, activation, expansion, information architecture, acquisition, and engagement.

Raised at a unicorn valuation while I was there.

Ended up leaving to focus full-time on my newsletter.

VP of Product

Affirm

Member of the senior product leadership team. Led growth team when company revenue grew from $300M to $1.2B/year.

Head of Growth Product

Epic Games

Led data driven growth for Fortnite during some it's best performing years, including the Travis Scott Concert and launch of "Chapter 2."

Lead Product Manager

thredUP

Built and led the team's product growth team when it raised its series D.

We worked on the following key initiatives:

- Pricing optimization: we re-architected the pricing system to optimize for conversion, new customers, and stockthrough levels, driving industry-leading inventory turns
- Conversion rate optimization: we drove 2.5x in first visit to purchase conversion via tools like outfits, dynamic merchandising, ad campaign customization, and the aforementioned pricing system
- Referrals channel: we grew this channel back when it actually worked, with things like $10-$10 and also a famous $0.99 sales
- Paid advertising growth: we built an ad-technology system to handle budgeting and bids cross-channel across Facebook, Pinterest, and Yahoo ads

Overall, I helped the company eventually go public by setting the foundations for its growth, growth marketing, and growth product teams.

Director of Growth

Rap to Beats

Developed iOS app Rap to Beats & scaled to 300K monthly active users (MAU). Led team.

We shipped several game changing features:
- In-app purchases for premier DJ beats
- A leaderboard to showcase your raps by country
- Social sharing to Instagram and Facebook

With premier DJs regularly using the app to sell their work, we were able to scale one of the first consumer apps for rap on the iPhone.

Co-Founder/ Head of Product

Scoutforce Werving & Selectie

ScoutForce was a SaaS for College Athletic Recruiting Teams. 

I joined as one of the first employees, and helped create the initial product: in the cloud recruiting software to enable recruiting teams. I did in depth discovery, wireframing, and iteration on the early features. 

This built my initial skillset in product management.

Product Manager

The Product Growth Guy 🚀 | Helping you land your next job + succeed in your career | Newsletter Writer and Podcast Host

TL;DR: I write a newsletter for product managers, product leaders, and aspiring product managers. I focus on actionable and deep tips to improve your career.

The Longer Version:

After a long career in PM - rising to VP of Product at a Unicorn - I have made the shift to writing about it.

In particular, I write about product growth. That is, the art of growing via your product. 

This means I also talk a lot about product-led growth (PLG), the SaaS B2B motion.

My newsletter doesn't just focus on growth though. 

I also break down technology, product management, product leadership, and how to get a PM job. 

It's all the things that make for a great use of your learning & development budget. 

Or even personal spend. 

The math is pretty great. 
↳ $150 for an annual subscription
↳ $211K average PM salary in the US
↳ 0-10% average range of raises offered

If the newsletter helps you get a 0.07% better raise, it pays itself. 
That's 1/142th of your raise range.

It's a pretty smart investment for every level of PM.

This is what a Senior AI PM at Google's Github looks like.

It's wild:

Take a look:  https://lnkd.in/e7Jb8kRe

He's made 484 contributions in the last year (>1/day). 

New-age AI PMs don't just write PRDs. They ship:

1. Prototypes
2. Frameworks
3. Perspectives on AI
4. Open source contributions

The bar for technical fluency for AI PMs continues to rise as PMs like Shubham Saboo raise the standard. 

AI PMs don't just have a theoretical understanding of concepts, but a practical knowledge of AI engineering.

Take a look at Shubham's top repos, for inspiration:

1. Collection of LLM Apps: https://lnkd.in/e-Zesb7u
2. MCP Playbook for AI agents: https://lnkd.in/eR5KHvww

These are practical resources that he's collected himself. They aren't necessarily at-scale production apps. They're PM friendly projects. 

He's also built a more-technical open source Python toolkit for building AI agents: https://lnkd.in/eCsAzPtR

When you put these types of work products together, jobs come to you. This is how you break into AI PM. 

If you look at his LinkedIn, most of his career was in dev rel. But a Github speaks louder than titles.

This is what all aspiring AI PMs should do:

1. Start with Prototyping: https://lnkd.in/eJujDhBV
2. Then pick up Cursor: https://lnkd.in/d2pcXD7R
3. Build with Claude Code: https://lnkd.in/eUyPEAma
4. Ship to Github: https://lnkd.in/eVFVT_Yc
5. Create a Portfolio: https://lnkd.in/eT3RvQiM
6. Build a Job Search System: https://lnkd.in/efbppEDj

Then you too can become an AI PM at Google like Shubham. He's created the roadmap. Now follow.

The AI PM Guy 🚀 | Helping you land your next job + succeed in your career

Linear hit a $1.25B valuation with just 2 PMs.

The way they build product is from the future:

They're contrarian.

They do almost no "growth product" work:

• No A/B tests
• No work on activation
• No growth dashboards
• Zero focus on retention tactics

They also don't have a design system. 

Instead, at the core of the way Linear builds product is "The Linear Method." Many founders I talk to have been religiously copying it. There's three keys, as I see it:

1. Directness
They don't do user stories, they speak clearly

2. No Busy Work
They don't do sprint planning, or OKRs for ICs

3. Momentum
They don't have cycles, scope aggressively, ship fast

Their founders, and CEO Karri Saarinen have operated this way from day 1. They set a very intentional culture. 

Beneath the method, there's tons more texture... 

One of the most unique processes they have is the roast. Before every launch, the entire team spends 30 mins breaking every feature with a massive doc. 

Another one is their zero bugs policy. I heard from multiple people of bugs being solved in hours, not days.

They also don't have a PM on every project. With 2 PMs, small little teams of designers and engineers really think like product people in the work that they do. 

The results speak for themselves.

$1.25B valuation with just 100 employees.
145% net revenue retention. 
No retention team needed.

They've put on a masterclass in building a unique product culture, with lots to learn for others out there.

🛠️🤖 How to build AI agents from scratch
(Even if you've never done it before.)
𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝟴 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲, 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗨𝗜.

𝙁𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩, 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙣 𝘼𝙄 𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙩?

An AI Agent is an LLM that:

• Reasons on its own
• Act (via calling tools)
• Observes & improve itself

This is the core "ReAct" framework Google released all the way back in 2022. It's now a reality. 

---

𝙃𝙚𝙧𝙚'𝙨 𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙨𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙨 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝟴 𝙠𝙚𝙮 𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙥𝙨:

1. Define purpose & scope

Over-scoping is the killer of agents. You want a single clear use case with success criteria, and constraints. 

2. Build system prompt

This is often the most important step. You want a really good prompt, or the whole thing falls over. 

3. Choose LLM

Don't always go for the best. Balance speed, multi-modality, and what each LLM is best for. 

4. Integrate tools

This is what makes your agent an agent, MCP, APIs, other agents as tools. Create your architecture.

5. Add memory

Don't add memory unless needed. But for support agents that need conversation history, or research agents that build on past findings? Game-changer.

6. Orchestrate things

You want a control flow over routes, workflows, message queues and your agent-to-agent (A2A) coordination.

7. Build a user interface

This is the flashy part we want to jump to. But only it do it now. Figure out how users will interact. 

8. Add testing & evals 

This is the most important step to create a continuous improvement loop. Systematically analyze errors.

Here's guides to help with each step:

8. Evals ➝‬ https://lnkd.in/eGbzWMxf

𝙏𝙚𝙘𝙝 𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙠:

Now, what tools should you use? 

For general assistants: ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity 
For coding projects: Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code 
For business automation: Lindy, Relay app, n8n 
For complex workflows: LangGraph, CrewAI, LlamaIndex

The best stack is the one that gets you shipping fast.

Agents are one of the most powerful skills for PMs and engineers to learn right now. 

I have been studying them deeply.
 These are my core learnings.

What agents have you been building?

This $4B CPO runs her entire day out of Claude Code + Cursor. And she shared exactly how she does it:

It was a delight to sit down with Rachel Wolan.

She is one of the most AI-forward CPOs I have met, and she dropped all the sauce on her AI workflows.

Linear: Plan and build product like the best

Use my link! https://lnkd.in/e8rtjVRZ 

✍️ Here were my favorite takeaways:

1. There are two sides to AI product leadership: being a productive AI product leader yourself, and shipping AI native features for your customers. Rachel showed us both in this masterclass.

2. Webflow went from 0% of designers using Cursor to 30% using it weekly after one builder day. That's the power of setting up your org correctly. Champions teach, incentives align, adoption follows.

3. Rachel built an "agentic chief of staff" that analyzes her calendar for delegation opportunities, triages her entire inbox, and queries Snowflake in natural language. She gets answers in seconds without waiting for data scientists.

4. Her calendar agent spots double-bookings, context switching issues, and meetings she should delegate. It recommends what to cut next week. She runs it weekly & shares outputs with her EA.

5. Her email agent removes junk automatically, pins what matters, and drafts replies based on her inbox behavior patterns. It learns what she cares about by watching how she responds.

6. She queries their data warehouse in plain English through Claude Code. "How many sites does this workspace have?" answered instantly. Set up MCP servers for Snowflake & Tableau to enable this.

7. Building custom agents takes minutes. Create a markdown file in your /agents folder, describe what you want, Claude generates it. She built a LinkedIn post generator live on the pod.

8. To enable your team: give them tool access (Cursor, Claude Code), run builder days where everyone demos something new, update career ladders to expect AI usage, and let champions on your team teach others.

9. For shipping AI features, invest heavily in evals. Webflow's code generator broke when they switched models because eval coverage was insufficient. 

10. Choose AI features that leverage your core strengths. Webflow built a code generator using their CMS, design system, and production hosting. That's their differentiation versus every other coding agent.

11. Think distribution first, not last. Answer engine optimization is the new SEO. Feed FAQs to your website, build ChatGPT apps, and make sure product changes get recognized in answer engines from day one.

What's even cooler is she is a paid subscriber to the newsletter!

Google JUST dropped 70 pgs on context eng and it's 🔥

I summarized it for you:

Stateful, personal AI starts with Context Engineering: assembling the right information at the right time.

There's 7 keys:

—

𝗢𝗡𝗘 - 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 = 𝗦𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗔𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗹𝘆

Your LLM context window is prime real estate. Context Engineering optimizes what goes in:

→ User intent + conversation history
→ Retrieved facts (RAG for general knowledge)
→ Long-term memory (user preferences, expertise)
→ Tool outputs and grounding data

The right information, assembled at the right moment.

—

𝗧𝗪𝗢 - 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 = 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗯𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵

A session is a single conversation with:

1. Events (user messages, tool calls, observations)
2. State (conversation history, accumulated context)
3. Lifecycle (create, interact, close)

Think: one task, one session. When you close it, the session ends but memories can persist.

—

𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗘𝗘 - 𝗠𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘆 = 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘁

Memory persists across sessions for true continuity:

- Declarative (facts, preferences: "I'm vegan")
- Procedural (how you work: "I debug like Sarah does")

RAG retrieves general facts from the internet. Memory captures YOUR specific expertise and preferences.

Big difference.

—

𝗙𝗢𝗨𝗥 - 𝗠𝗲𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 = 𝗘𝗧𝗟 𝗣𝗶𝗽𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲

LLMs themselves drive memory creation:

1. Extract relevant info from session conversations
2. Consolidate with existing memories (dedupe, merge)
3. Load into vector stores for retrieval

An LLM-powered ETL pipeline. Automated intelligence extraction from your interactions.

—

𝗙𝗜𝗩𝗘 - 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 = 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁

Every memory needs metadata for production use:

→ Source (which session created this?)
→ Timestamp (how fresh is this?)
→ Confidence (how certain are we?)

Provenance is critical for debugging, trust, and reliability in production systems.

—

𝗦𝗜𝗫 - 𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀

Two approaches to memory retrieval:

Proactive: Always include in context (user name, critical preferences)
Reactive: Retrieve on-demand based on query (semantic search, vector similarity)

Smart agents know when to pull vs push. Not everything belongs in every context.

—

𝗦𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗡 - 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆

Building this at scale requires:

• Privacy: User data isolation, encryption, compliance
• Performance: Caching strategies, batch operations
• Scale: Vector stores for semantic search, not SQL

Google runs this across millions of users. The infrastructure matters.

—

This took me 2 hours.

If you want traffic your site in 2025.

Don't use Old SEO.

Millions of queries daily are going to LLMs. 

Weekly users for ChatGPT alone hit 800M+. 

You need to:

1. Get cited by ChatGPT/Claude → GEO
2. Rank in Google AI overviews → AEO
3. Be used by AI agent tools → AIO
4. Convert users upon land → SXO

It's time for companies to embrace the AI search wave.

I'm not saying SEO is dead. In fact, being good at SEO makes you good at all of these things. 

But you need a specific playbook. 

Here's your starting point 👇

🔗 OLD SEO 
↳ We were obsessed with ranking number 1.

S - Search
E - Engine
O - Optimization

The bread and butter here was keywords, programmatic, backlinks, and technical optimization.

The core question behind all work was: "Can we rank higher than competitors?"

It was great for driving high-intent traffic. 

The problems were:

• more traffic without intent
• informational clicks
• algorithm updates

As a result, the funnel looked like:

100 visitors
4% convert
4 signups

💬 NEW SEO
↳ You have to get cited and used by AI platforms. 

You build 4 things:

1. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)
2. Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)
3. AI Integration Optimization (AIO)
4. Search Experience Optim (SXO)

It's great for durable authority that compounds.

And it can drive:

• Built in trust
• Pre-qualified intent
• Visibility where decisions happen

As a result, the funnel looks like:

50 visitors
24% convert
12 signups

📌 WANT TO MASTER NEW SEO?
↳ I've written a full guide with Josh Grant.

His team at Webflow drive >10% of their signups...
Which convert at 6x the rate via AEO + GEO
