Product Owner turning unclear requirements into sprint-ready user stories and shipped MVPs through practical UX and analytics.
What I'm looking for
After 8+ years working as a Product Owner and PM across Customer Journey Mapping enterprise SaaS, marketplaces, and early-stage products, I’ve learned teams aren’t short on ideas—they’re short on clarity. That’s what I fix: I turn chaotic inputs into buildable decisions, sprint-ready work, and measurable UX improvements.
Currently, I’m an Independent Product Builder/Product Owner, hands-on across the full product cycle while building an Android mobile fitness app MVP. I define MVP scope, write implementation-ready product documentation, design user flows and edge cases, and run an AI-assisted development workflow using Cursor and Android Studio to ship vertical slices with tight review checkpoints.
Previously, I owned backlogs and rewrote unclear or broken user stories, then aligned engineering and design to simplify flows and prioritize fixes that mattered. At Juriba, I led an Area Product Owner scope across multiple Scrum teams, coordinated cross-team delivery, mentored Product Owners, and championed UI/UX consistency and security & accessibility best practices (GDPR, ISO27001, WCAG).
