Summary
Graham Hudgins is a product leader with 12 years of experience designing and shipping data-driven user experiences, currently leading Kibana product strategy and the platform data-plane UX at Elastic. He has repeatedly scaled analytics and observability workflows into commercially successful products, blending hands-on technical empathy from early consulting and engineering roles with strategic product leadership across Elastic, AWS, Esri, and startups.
