About Danny Roosevelt
I love solving complex problems and diving deep into technology solutions. I spent 5 years in Ad Tech at BrightRoll (acquired by Yahoo), where I shipped highly technical products that handled billions of HTTP requests per day and grew revenue by >20%. I authored technical API docs and filed a patent for standardizing interactive mobile video ads. After leaving Yahoo, I co-founded MailCoach in 2016 to improve employee productivity at work, where we shipped 4 apps to thousands of people at nearly 100 companies. Some of my product strengths: - High technical fluency enables me to understand and assess engineering requirements and tradeoffs - Relentless drive to become an expert on the product and tech stack - Adept at cultivating strong relationships with key stakeholders, including engineering - Strong communicator and able to easily translate business needs into technical requirements (and vice versa) - Heavy reliance on data exploration and analysis to answer complex questions about the business - Experience leading product development with cross-functional teams I've written about some of my experiences starting (and shutting down) and company here - https://medium.com/@dannyroosevelt
