About Dan G.

I\'m a hands-on product manager with 6+ years of experience at a startup, consulting firm, and scaleup. My domain focus is security, compliance, privacy, and internal engineering productivity. I have experience working onsite, hybrid, and remote, in the US, UK, and Germany, with a globally distributed workforce. As the first Security Product Manager at Contentful, I work cross-functionally to deliver impactful customer outcomes that enhance trust in our products. Contentful supports 30% of the Fortune 500 with their digital experiences, and 110+ billion API calls per month. I\'ve led and collaborated with teams that: • Launched an EU data residency capability to support a global customer base with data privacy and compliance. • Achieved SOC 2 compliance (no findings) to advance trust with enterprise customers and accelerate sales cycles. • Scaled existing products through an evolving Internal Developer Platform. • Reduced monthly internal DevOps tickets for Terraform/Kubernetes support by 40% through improved self-service capabilities (e.g, Terraform Cloud, ArgoCD). • Developed 0-to-1 AI/blockchain products that streamline cybersecurity and automate acquisition. Personal Goals (2025) • Inspire customers and prospects with strategy, creativity, and compassion. • Advocate for responsible, diverse, inclusive, and equitable technology outcomes. • Empower teams to deliver high-impact product outcomes for customers and our business. • Explore the world, stay humble, and immerse myself in its vibrant cultures. • Always be learning. Propelled by curiosity and constant growth. Views are my own.
