Summary
Kohei Onodera is a product manager with an 11-year engineering background who currently leads product and delivery for Rakuten’s Global Ad Serving Platform, coordinating cross-functional teams of 15+ engineers and 10+ global stakeholders. He excels at translating ambiguous stakeholder needs into clear PRDs and technical artifacts (ER/sequence diagrams, wireframes) and uses SQL (BigQuery/MySQL/Hive) to drive KPIs and data-informed decisions. His experience spans cloud migrations, SSP/DMP integrations, and hands-on full‑stack engineering—skills that help him bridge product, engineering, and operations. Kohei actively embeds AI into his PM workflow to speed PRD drafting, research, and hiring while maintaining quality through human oversight, and he prototypes ideas with tools like Claude Code and OpenClaw. Comfortable in English and based in Tokyo, he seeks roles where AI is deeply integrated into day-to-day product development.
