About Doug Rhoten
Strategic product leader focused on transforming how product teams work — shifting organizations from project-based outputs to outcome-driven impact. In my current role, I’m helping lead this transformation across a global enterprise, guiding teams toward clearer product vision, scalable practices, and better alignment around customer value.I bring a unique mix of startup scrappiness, engineering depth, and enterprise-scale experience. Whether scaling new platforms or modernizing legacy ones, I focus on systems thinking, cross-functional collaboration, and building cultures where product teams thrive — and where both customers and the business win.
