Technical Product Manager
Martyn O'Neill
Technical product manager with a decade of experience managing online UGC communities with 50M+ users, now building web and native apps with AI-assisted development.
About Me
Seasoned Product Manager with experience shipping on every platform
I'm a technical product manager with over a decade of experience building and managing digital products. From leading product direction for online UGC communities with 50M+ monthly users to stabilizing SaaS operations at a music-tech startup, I bring a hands-on approach to every challenge.
In my free time, I channel that product intuition into building my own applications — heavily leveraging AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT to accelerate development. From cross-platform anime trackers to AI-powered document systems, I design, develop, and ship full-stack projects end-to-end — backend APIs in Go, native iOS apps in Swift, and Android apps in Kotlin.
