Michel C is a Staff Product Manager and former software developer with nine years of experience building developer-focused products and operational systems, currently leading product strategy at Walmart from Los Angeles. He combines hands-on engineering and DevOps experience—spanning full-stack development, Kubernetes-based microservices, CI/CD, and IoT—with product leadership that has driven measurable quality and efficiency gains (e.g., reducing bugs by 80% and pallet error rates from 7% to <0.1%). A Carnegie Mellon Software Management graduate and frequent Stack Overflow contributor, he mentors teams, teaches graduate software management, and evangelizes developer experience through open-source tools. He’s comfortable bridging technical execution and stakeholder alignment, having led migrations, standardized architectures, and overseen IT operations for growing organizations. Notably, Michel blends a hardware-aware engineering background with product instincts, which informs pragmatic solutions across retail, logistics, and e-commerce domains.
