About richiezc

Semi-retired/on sabatical

Previously: Cargurus - Head of Product (Autolist) Houzz - Director of consumer product Airbnb - Employee #27 LinkedIn - Employee #299

You ever get that email from LinkedIn suggesting People You May Know? I built that with no engineering support. Everything from infrastructure, design, business logic, ETL (Hadoop->RDBMS->ESP), code to scaling.

The first time we launched it the resulting traffic crashed the site (user auth service couldn't handle the additional load), today it generates 10%+ MAU.

    I'm under the impression that EPM is more of a project management role than a traditional PM role given how tops down Apple is?
