Product Manager: Netherlands: Open to NL & EU roles

Building products that
solve real problems and
drive measurable outcomes.

Three case studies. Each one answers the questions PM interviewers actually ask: Why this problem? What did you consider and reject? What tradeoff did you make? What metric proves it worked?

What I document
Not just the solution: the rejected options and exactly what each tradeoff cost
How I prioritise
RICE scoring, explicit "why this first," and a named list of what's NOT in v1
How I measure
North Star tied to revenue, guardrail tied to trust, leading indicator visible within weeks
How I think
Marketplace dynamics, retention loops, unit economics, ICP-first for B2B

Three product bets, fully argued

Each structured as: story: ecosystem thinking: hypothesis: RICE: solution: tradeoffs: execution reality: metrics.

โญ Flagship: Marketplace Thinking
๐ŸŸข Uber Eats UK

Group Order Split Bill

One person pays. Three people forget to send the money. One occasion doesn't repeat.

A tri-sided marketplace problem. Uber Eats solved group ordering but left the payment loop wide open. This case maps the unit economics, scores five alternatives using RICE, and argues why the pre-order split is the only option that closes the loop.

Problem
~23% lower group reorder rate

+12โ€“18% group reorders

Continue Watching Cleanup Mode

Netflix spends billions on content. A cluttered row stops subscribers from ever reaching it.

A content strategy problem disguised as a UX annoyance. This case maps the broken retention loop, argues why Archive is not Delete, and connects a single product feature to watch time, recommendation quality, and churn prevention.

Content Expiry Task Routing

Every organisation with a website has this problem. Email chains, missed pages, admin as a relay. Nobody solved it properly.

A B2B workflow problem with a clear ICP. Includes a competitive landscape showing why every existing approach fails, and the "notification: task" reframe that makes the solution obvious once you see it.

Product Manager with a builder's instinct

4+ years of product experience spanning fintech, public sector digital transformation, and two product-led startups. My work sits at the intersection of data-driven platforms, complex workflows, and Agile delivery.

I've improved CSAT by 20% for a financial platform serving thousands of users, reduced bounce rate by 30% across 15 websites, and led a 0โ†’1 pivot from service business to SaaS. Currently building a geospatial data platform using satellite and weather data.
