Senior🎓
Top SchoolKyle Maurer is a Director of Product and operations leader with 12 years of experience building and scaling B2C software teams from product strategy to engineering delivery. Based in Jackson, Michigan, he blends hands-on technical chops—contributing PHP/WordPress fixes to widely used projects like Easy Digital Downloads—with operational rigor, having implemented EOS and designed org and total rewards frameworks. He has led cross-functional teams across startups and established firms, driving product marketing, career progression, and support/engineering alignment.

Outside work, his GitHub bio hints at a down-to-earth personality—calzones, craft beer, and an appreciation for otters and early nights.
