Owen McCafferty Jr
@owenmccaffertyjr
Product Manager with 10+ years driving SaaS and IoT products from discovery to scaling.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Product Manager with 10+ years delivering SaaS, IoT, and connected hardware products across North America and EMEA. I own the end-to-end product lifecycle—from discovery and user research to roadmap execution, go-to-market, and scaling.
I thrive partnering with engineering, design, data, and commercial stakeholders to translate business goals into scalable digital solutions. I’ve led platform transformations, rebuilt mobile applications for continuous improvement, and built analytics frameworks that improve feature prioritization and long-term decision-making.
My focus is measurable outcomes: growth via data-driven experimentation and A/B testing, subscription and data-driven monetization models, and partner/channel enablement. I also bring strong execution discipline—PRDs, roadmaps, Agile delivery, and GDPR-compliant data practices—so teams can ship confidently and expand internationally.
