I had the great pleasure of being Haelim’s hiring manager at Knowde. Not only did Haelim fulfill all aspects of the PM role, she quickly established herself as the trustworthy go-to for engineering and design. Her ability to absorb information and execute logically was felt deeply by the team, establishing a base of trust and leadership from which the team followed. Haelim’s desire to grow was evident from day one where she sought to understand success criteria and company goals. She then used this information to continually gut-check projects entering her radar, providing both resistance and charisma where needed. This is uncharacteristic for someone so early in their product career. The most recent example of these traits is a project involving a 3rd party data vendor, a changing tech stack, and aggressive success metrics. Not only did she write the requirements and lead this project to an on-time release, it blew our success metrics out of the water by 2x+. Haelim can always be trusted to get things done. No matter the time zone, working hours, project conflicts, or unfamiliarity with the domain. She has both the persistence and tenacity to mow through obstacles in the pursuit of team goals. I have no doubts we will continue to see Haelim flourish as a product leader, a cherished teammate, and a competitive force to be reckoned with.
