Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHoward Edson is a product leader with 11 years of experience building data-driven software and aviation training products, currently shaping flight-path optimization at APiJET while also instructing pilots part-time. He blends enterprise product management chops from roles at Indeed, Amazon, and FTI Technology—where he launched ML-driven features and pricing/optimization systems—with hands-on SQL and Python analysis to align technical delivery with customer value. At Indeed he founded and scaled Hire sourcing and automated budget optimizers that dramatically reduced costs, and at FTI he led predictive coding and a custom record-linkage algorithm, showing a pattern of turning complex data problems into usable workflows. Based in Sammamish, WA, he pairs MBA-level strategy with technical fluency (Python certificate and computer science studies) and a pragmatic appreciation for operational constraints. Notably, he translates airline-scale operational metrics into pricing strategy and go-to-market positioning, bridging product, commercial, and engineering teams. His dual focus on safe, confident pilot training and high-impact software products gives him a rare combination of domain expertise and product execution.
