PITTBOS

As Director of Product And Design, I worked directly with the CEO to bring his vision to market, making sure it was incredibly intuitive and delightful for our customers to use, and sped up their processing time--which increased their bottom line.

Sept 2021 - June 2024

Pittbos is a comprehensive sales & operations management platform which took the offline, pen & paper methods of paving & concrete construction companies, and materials suppliers into the cloud. The platform featured tools for CRM and lead management, materials supplier pricing & ordering, job estimating & bidding, digital geo-spacial measuring tools, project Management & job scheduling calendar, and an invoicing system.

PITTBOS BACKLOG CALENDAR

Active project scheuling and tracking calendar.

Sept 2021 - June 2024

For over a year, there was one feature request that kept popping up in talking with the customers. They loved the core of Pittbos Contractor with its CRM-light, project estimate and proposal features. However, a consistent message was that they could not fully transition to using Pittbos without a work scheduling component. A big part of their post-sale backend workflow was missing.

PITTBOS DESIGN SYSTEM

This was a living document that we built while flying the plane. It enabled rapid development, iteration and standardization of components, accelerating time to market.

Sept 2021 - June 2024

We collaborated as a team to come up with the design language and code structure for the system.

Working in Sketch, Figma, Miro and React we created elements and components that made it super fast and easy for me to convey an idea or concept and the team could turn around designs and working prototypes over night. I can't advocate enough for defining a design system as you build products.

A truly lean machine. This team, delivered through challenging conditions in Ukraine. One of the best I've ever worked with.

VIASAT

Enterprise and Consumer Satellite Internet. We brought a disjointed business customer experience together into one easy to use account management portal.

Feb 2017 - July 2021

I worked on many different things in this role. Mostly business satellite service, but also heavily involved in the design of billing management process, business and sales partner tools and customer support systems.
