Jhon Ortega
@jhonortega
Product Owner and Software Developer bridging business needs with scalable, user-focused IoT and web products.
What I'm looking for
I’m an Electronic Engineer and Software Developer with a cross-functional background spanning hardware design, IoT systems, and full-stack web development. I love translating business goals into clear user stories and acceptance criteria, then working with teams to deliver continuous, measurable product value.
As a Product Owner, I manage and prioritize backlogs, facilitate sprint planning and backlog refinement, and act as the stakeholder-to-development connector. I’ve also led technology operations under critical deadlines—coordinating multi-site, high-stakes service delivery—and I bring that same discipline to agile execution, incident response, and smooth release alignment.
