Hi, I’m Jim – Your "Product Guy" with Founder DNA.

I’m not your typical freelancer waiting for tickets. As a founder with exit experience and currently a bootstrap CEO, I build products as if they were my own: fast, scalable, and business-driven. I bridge the gap between high-end UX/UI and deep technical understanding (Node/React). You get the speed of a founder combined with the precision of a Senior Product Lead.

Why work with me? Because I close the gap between Business, Design, and Tech. I’ve helped scale a VC-backed startup to a successful exit and am currently building my own SaaS from the ground up. I don’t just know how to build software; I know how to make it sell and scale.

I’m the right fit if your product team needs leadership, your MVP is stuck, or your UX isn't converting.

- Product Management & Strategy: Moving from chaos to a clear roadmap. I prioritize features based on actual business value, not just gut feeling.

- UX/UI Design (Figma Expert): I build clickable high-fidelity prototypes and design systems that developers actually love to work with (because I speak their language).

- Technical Fluency: I speak "Developer" (Node.js, React, APIs, SQL). I can validate architectures and assess technical debt so you don't have to.

- Operations & Automation: I automate processes (Sales/CS) to let your team focus on what matters.

I don’t need hand-holding. Give me a problem, and I’ll deliver a solution—strategically sound and operationally ready. Let’s have a quick chat to see if we’re a fit!
