About Brian Ahearn

What chatGPT is saying about me: Product leader with 13+ years of experience driving digital transformation, eCommerce innovation, and cross-functional product strategies. Proven ability to lead large-scale web & platform enhancements, optimize MarTech & personalization, and scale high-impact product teams. Strong track record of executing both enterprise-level digital roadmaps and 0 to 1 incubations. History of using data-driven decision making to build genuinely delightful products.What I\'m saying about myself:At the heart of every great product, there is a great problem, and great problems are what get me out of bed in the morning when my dog doesn\'t. I believe finding product-market fit for products means giving customers innovative solutions to real problems, not simply giving customers a drill when they ask for a hole. To do this well is difficult. It requires keeping the consumer at the center of every decision and getting out of the office, but often results in teams finding success earlier in their product iterations. When I\'m not solving problems at work, I\'m often creating them in my garage. I\'m an average woodworker/maker and DIY enthusiast with a lot of practice at failing forward. It seems my love of science and design translates better to the digital world than the physical one, but that doesn\'t stop me from trying.Connect with me to talk product, innovation, dogs, or DIY.
