ABOUT AARON WINKEL

I’m a passionate professional with a knack for turning big ideas into actionable strategies and seamless execution. With over 12 years of experience in project management, SaaS implementations, and change management, I’m now on the lookout for an exciting Product Manager role where I can be at the intersection of strategy, execution, and customer impact. I’m also currently pursuing my Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, with an expected completion date of December 2024.At Zebra Technologies, I’ve thrived as an Agile Product Owner and leader of cross-functional teams. I’ve managed implementations that reduced delivery timelines by 15%, cut defect resolution times by 69%, and improved product efficiency by 20%. Whether collaborating with engineers, stakeholders, or customers, I’m driven by the challenge of simplifying complex processes to deliver exceptional results. My background has sharpened my expertise in prioritization, problem-solving, and delivering customer-centric solutions that move the needle.Before Zebra, my analytical skills were put to the test at Abercrombie & Fitch Co, where I monitored shrinkage KPIs across global locations. This role taught me the power of data-driven decisions and their potential to shape strategic business outcomes—an insight I carry into every project I manage.Outside of work, I’m always up for an adventure! Whether it’s traveling to new destinations, trying my hand at pickleball, or going on walks with my Siberian Husky, Kobalt, I love staying active and embracing new challenges.(And yes, Kobalt definitely knows he’s the star of the family!)If you’re looking for someone who brings creativity, data-driven insights, and a get-it-done attitude, let’s connect!Skills: • Product Management (PMP - Expected December 2024)• Agile Methodologies (Certified Scrum Product Owner – CSPO)• Data Analytics• Project Management• Business Process Improvement• Change Management• Customer-Centric Solution Delivery
