Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrandon Jackson is a product leader with 14 years of experience building mission-driven consumer and education products and now leading product at Open Function from London. He has a track record of translating research and technical complexity into delightful, measurable user outcomes—from launching Kano’s award-winning family PCs and kids’ coding platform to driving a 50% conversion lift at JustPark via a company-wide experimentation program. Brandon blends hands-on technical roots (computer science at Yale and early dev roles) with strategic thinking informed by a Cambridge MA in History & Philosophy of Science and work on Public AI governance. He advises startups through Skying Ltd, shapes public-interest AI thinking with Metagov and Windfall Trust, and repeatedly turns product discovery into scalable systems. Known for shipping across platforms (OS, mobile, web) and for building data-informed learning loops, he favors experiments that surface how technology materially improves people’s lives. An unusual strength is combining education-focused product design with scenario-planning for societal impacts of transformative AI.
