About David Ohnstad

I am an innovative, resourceful professional with experience in product management, business development, and sales/marketing enablement. I have proven my ability to navigate complex business and technological situations to identify and create resolutions. I have successfully managed products from business conceptions and requirements to implementation and market adoption in companies ranging from billions of dollars to fostering tech startups. I have pioneered world-class leading AI/ML workflows and overseen incredibly technical data-heavy products within SAAS, IAAS, and PAAS business models. I have led company efforts on creating a business vision to product creation/iteration, determining new pricing structures, verifying/validating product market fit along with strategizing sales techniques. I am always improving my understanding of best practices within the product space by completing relevant certification courses and staying up to date with literature, industry trends, etc. With my Masters in Systems Engineering and Engineering Management as well as completing my MBA with a focus in data analytics, I have created within myself a wealth of knowledge in successful product development along with effective business development practices, which I continuously use to bolster the product decisions I make daily.
