About Brad Erickson

mobile/text:(40••••••06 b••••••••@gmail.comTechnical Product Manager with a passion for delivering innovative customer-centric solutions. I have a proven track record of leading cross-functional teams, managing complex projects, driving business operations, and balancing product strategy and tactical execution. As the product owner for HyperFlex hardware, I was responsible for the roadmap, requirements, features, and launch of award-winning products, including HyperFlex (Compute, Networking & Storage) data center virtualization platforms, All-NVMe high performance servers, Intel CPUs, NVIDIA GPUs, storage devices, acceleration engine cards, peripherals, and networking interconnects. I worked closely with customers, partners, sales, marketing, engineering, manufacturing, and supply chain on GTM to ensure the product quality, availability, growth and profitability. I am currently on an extended sabbatical focused on family, volunteering, learning, and residential real estate hobbies. I\'m an avid reader, quickly learning AI, refreshing SCRUM and project management fundamentals. I\'m curiously exploring what\'s next.
