  The Keyboard product was at a point where an organizational, C-Suite led shift from devices and software to cybersecurity was taking place. The Keyboard software product was a pinnacle of innovative technology for the device maker and was (is still) loved by millions of people worldwide and I was tasked with leading it through its final phase.

The Keyboard software product was a pinnacle of innovative technology for the device maker and was (is still) loved by millions of people worldwide and I was tasked with leading it through its final phase. I led the development and release with quick and ever-growing demands as the development team was shifting priorities, being moved to different teams, and overhauling a backend to use a new service provider due to legal requirements. I met with and managed multiple meetings with VP's and above and articulated the plan to end of life a product that had been under iterative development and releases for years. Direct Impact: - Led a development team of 9 software engineers and 1 software architect for a final push to overhaul a backend and sunset the Keyboard product. - Improved morale greatly through leadership and managing stakeholder relations (both internal and external) which led to an increase in development velocity of 81.3%. - Work closely with the IR, PR, Legal, and executive teams across the organization to ensure a smooth transition in development effort and manage external stakeholder expectations. Was supported by 2 senior product executives throughout this large effort: Jasmin Mulaosmanovic and Robert Lombardi.
