Lobsang Rodriguez
@lobsangrodriguez
Product leader driving telecom and mobile product strategy, lifecycle execution, and customer growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a product and engineering leader with several years of experience in telecommunications and mobile technology across LATAM. I’ve led the full product lifecycle—from strategy and market analysis to requirements, launch, optimization, and product-market fit—delivering customer satisfaction and business growth.
I direct cross-functional teams (30+ people) and bring strong execution discipline to stakeholder alignment, change management, and high-impact negotiations. I’m used to translating technical–commercial needs into roadmaps, KPIs, and delivery plans that move from intent to outcomes.
In my current role as a Presales Engineer at Intracon Consulting, I design Apple ecosystem deployment architectures for enterprise environments. I implement Apple Business Manager and Apple Configurator strategies, automate the device lifecycle through Zero-Touch enrollment and centralized provisioning, and collaborate on B2B deployments integrating macOS, iOS, and iPadOS into corporate networks and directory services.
Earlier, I served as Director of Engineering - LATAM at Tekmovil, leading regional mobile device homologation and technical roadmaps with OEM/ODM partners and executive stakeholders. I also bring analytical and delivery support from roles where I tracked adoption using metrics/dashboards (including power BI), ran agile ceremonies, and managed product budgets and financial performance.
