Josh Collins is a product and program leader with eight years of senior product experience and two decades of hands-on delivery across cloud platforms, enterprise software, e-commerce, and developer tooling. He’s guided platform and CLI strategy through major transitions at Pivotal → VMware → Broadcom, balancing necessary breaking changes with clear communication and sustainable release practices. Josh excels at smoothing cross-functional friction—acting as the connective tissue between engineering, design, operations, and customers—to keep complex initiatives moving during organizational change. Earlier in his career he drove high-growth marketplace and customization platforms at CafePress, combining P&L ownership with scalable product and experimentation practices that materially improved revenue and conversion. After stepping back in 2024–2025 to support family and recover from a serious accident, he’s intentionally seeking hybrid roles where thoughtful execution and real-world impact outweigh hype. Based in San Francisco, he brings a pragmatic mix of judgment, empathy for downstream consumers, and a track record of consolidating fragmented developer workflows into cohesive platform experiences.
