Summary
Stephen Pinkerton is a Technical Product Manager with 14 years of engineering and product experience building developer and observability products across startups and large tech firms. He’s shipped revenue-generating serverless and universal service monitoring products at Datadog, helped teams deliver higher-quality software as a founding PM at Graphite, and now drives technical product work at Jane Street. His background as an embedded and full-stack engineer (Google Nest, Square, Monzo) gives him a hands-on perspective for bridging low-level constraints with product strategy and developer UX. Comfortable presenting to customers and at conferences, he mentors early-career PMs and has a track record of taking projects from prototype to market. Colocated in New York, he pairs strong technical depth with a builder’s mindset—his GitHub bio wryly summarizes that he’s “mostly water,” but his career shows a steady flow of impactful product deliveries.
