What I'm looking for

I’m looking to apply product and design leadership to accelerate innovation and growth in a forward-looking organization.

I’ve built product strategy and design orgs from the ground up, then shipped AI-enabled experiences for regulated health and consumer audiences. I led work spanning biomedical platforms with massive data scale and consumer launches like Delta Air Lines and the U.S. Olympic Committee.

Through Kirk Brote Consulting, I founded and scaled a product and design consultancy serving 89 clients across AI/ML, precision medicine, pharma, financial services, and enterprise SaaS. I also co-founded Notenda and guided Exact Sciences product strategy work tied to commercialization outcomes.

In full-time executive roles, I turned around Syapse’s product management organization—owning product P&L across multiple products while leading a 30+ person multidisciplinary team. I led product experience for genomic research and clinical platforms that contributed to 5,000+ rare disease diagnoses.

More recently, I’ve been running 0-to-1 product and design for an AI-powered pharmaceutical MLR compliance platform at VuuAI. I designed agentic AI workflows and a four-state AI verification model that became a foundational interface pattern across the review experience.
