About Jonathan Levy

I am a senior product leader with a foundation in energy systems and mechanical engineering, passionate about building products that transform complex technical models into clear user value.At Microgrid Labs, I led the full product lifecycle for EVopt, transforming research algorithms into a multi-tenant SaaS platform used by utilities, transit agencies, and commercial fleets to plan and operate more than 650 electric vehicles worldwide. I define product strategy from first principles, starting with customer pain points, translating insights into product hypotheses, and prioritizing features through data-driven experimentation and user feedback.My work spans problem discovery, product definition, delivery, and continuous iteration. I integrate user experience design, data analysis, and engineering execution to shape intuitive tools, measure engagement, and guide roadmap decisions based on both qualitative and quantitative evidence.I have developed energy-aware optimization tools that integrate tariffs, solar, and storage modeling, and more recently introduced AI-powered capabilities that automate data enrichment and internal workflows.I thrive in environments that value analytical depth, practical execution, and systems thinking. As a licensed Professional Engineer, I bring rigor, adaptability, and a focus on measurable results to every stage of the product lifecycle.
