Evan Roche

I'm an experienced product manager with expertise across software, hardware, and IoT. I excel at using creative problem-solving, human-centered design, and data-driven strategy to build impactful products.

When partnering with clients, I bring expertise in the following areas:

• Market Research: I excel at sourcing data and performing market analysis - even when data seems scarce - to identify and validate opportunities to go from 0-1.
• User Research: With a deep understanding of human-centered design, I conduct thorough user research to uncover valuable insights and build deep empathy with users. My approach spans a range of qualitative and quantitative methods, including interviews, surveying, and prototype testing.
• Product Vision and Strategy: I partner with leadership to establish bold product visions that inspire teams and align with business objectives, and then set effective metrics and OKRs to translate product vision into actionable and measurable goals.
• Developing Product Requirements: I’m highly proficient in writing clear and comprehensive product requirements, ranging from high-level marketing requirements to detailed product specifications and low-level acceptance criteria.
• Agile Methodologies: I’m experienced in agile methodologies and Scrum processes, helping teams foster collaboration, continuous improvement, and efficient product delivery in a fast-paced environment.
• Software Product Development: I have rich experience collaborating with senior software engineering and data science teams to continuously deliver high-quality products and features.
• Hardware Product Development: With hands-on experience in hardware development and IoT, I bring a wealth of knowledge in areas such as digital manufacturing, CAD/CAM, design for manufacture, and hardware prototyping. This enables me to manage hardware products and projects with confidence.
• Project Management: With a keen eye for detail and exceptional organizational skills, I successfully manage projects from initiation to completion. I ensure projects are delivered on time, within budget, and with the highest quality standards, while effectively coordinating cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
