Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShaun Byrne is a product and design leader with nearly two decades turning complex SaaS problems into clear, customer-centered outcomes across retail, AI/ML, FinTech, MedTech and L&D. He builds high-trust, outcome-focused teams with aligned autonomy and codified product practices that accelerate discovery and delivery—from zero-to-one MVPs to scaling enterprise platforms. At Black.ai he led the transition from R&D to a product company, reorganising engineering into cross-functional product teams and driving a steady cadence of high-impact initiatives. Previously he delivered measurable growth and operational gains at Zipline, Openpay and Redbubble, combining hands-on design craft with strategic product ops and design systems. Based in Melbourne, Shaun is equally comfortable in permanent or fractional leadership roles and often joins organisations early, helping them mature product discipline without sacrificing speed. A practical systems thinker, he balances executive collaboration with grounded user research to unlock global deals and sustained product maturity.
