About Jane S.

As a program lead with a product operations focus, I help value‑driven teams turn complex roadmaps into predictable, on‑time delivery. I’ve governed a multi‑product portfolio serving 4M+ users with ≥99% uptime and ~90% on‑time delivery. I led an Agile optimization that cut cycle time 33% and lifted throughput 12%, building a foundation for continuous improvement. I’m known for empowering distributed teams, aligning stakeholders, and landing executive priorities. I draw on my educator and learning design background to translate complexity, tailor communication to diverse audiences, and create alignment that sticks.At Common Sense Media, I oversaw delivery for a K–12 platform ecosystem (Drupal CMS; Google SSO/Classroom; Salesforce/ETLs; LMS/LTI), aligning biweekly with the VP of Product and monthly with the CTPO. I implemented a scalable delivery playbook—Definition of Ready/Done, structured intake, MoSCoW/RICE, Jira/Asana automation, and executive dashboards—driving predictability and quality while maintaining high reliability for critical target dates. Earlier in product roles, I shipped teacher‑first products and student tools in iterative releases with teams of 8–16 across engineering, design, QA, content, and marketing. Career highlights • Boosted discovery signals 67% via a homepage redesign. • Improved accessibility ~20% through audits and org‑wide training; strengthened WCAG 2.1 AA coverage. • Product ops wins: automated PD certificates; cut reporting from 1–2 days to 10–30 minutes; improved Salesforce/data‑lake handoffs. • Scale and adoption: Google Classroom–integrated curriculum used by ~60% of U.S. classrooms; adopted by major districts; educator NPS in the 60–70s.Strengths & methods: stakeholder management; Agile optimization; roadmap and release planning; Jira/Asana administration; Confluence; Salesforce; Figma/FigJam; Scrum/Scrumban; OKRs; MoSCoW; RICE; DoR/DoD.Certifications: PMI‑ACP, DASM, PSPO I; PMP in progress (Mar 2026).
