About Maísa
Hi there! I am Maísa, and I am a Product Manager with a strong track record in startups at different funding stages, from seed to series B, across e-commerce, mobile, Edtech and HRtech; including a pivotal role in the successful acquisition of a startup in 2020. With a proven background of strong stakeholder management and working with cross-functional product teams, driving product success from conception to fruition.
I have a passion for solving the right problem. An agile mindset is what guides me through the process of conducting research/discovery, ideation, validation, and ensuring projects are delivered by their deadlines.
I have excellent communication skills and am able to collaborate with cross-functional teams to bring products to market effectively. Having worked with tech teams since 2011, I feel comfortable and happy working with them.
Have trouble with organising your backlog, prioritising or validating a new business opportunity? I can help with that too.
Please reach out to me and we can talk about how I will solve your problem.
