Jon Douglas is a Principal Product Manager at Microsoft with 11 years of experience building developer-focused products around open-source security, package registries, and emergent AI tools like Copilot. He combines hands-on engineering roots—from early roles in software and mobile development—to product leadership, shipping solutions that prioritize helping people rather than replacing them. Jon augments his industry work with public service as a Steering Committee member for NIH’s RECOVER initiative, influencing biospecimen strategy and trial design for Long COVID therapeutics. Currently finishing an MS in Artificial Intelligence at UT Austin, he blends technical rigor with product judgment and a pragmatic curiosity about AI’s real-world impacts. He’s also known for mentoring hundreds of early-career technologists and connecting research labs to unlock funding and collaboration, a quieter but powerful part of his influence.
