Mike Madison · Product & Engineering Leadership
Twenty-four years turning regulated, data-heavy domains into shipped product.
Product leadership from first hire to a hundred-million-dollar exit — across consent and privacy, governance and risk, field service, insurance restoration, and production finance. Four product organizations built from nothing.
2002 First software shipped for a paying client
2008 First product role
2012 First director-level role
2016 First VP-level role
I am looking for a full-time product leadership role. I also take client engagements through ProdXP, the practice I run from south Georgia. Both fully remote.

Eighteen months at Aha! advising product organizations every week — how they really plan, prioritize, and argue, rather than how the case study tells it.
