Alex Chiocchi
Alex Chiocchi is Advisor, Product Incubator, Angel Investor. Formerly, Chief Product Officer at Pagoda, Office of the Founders, Incubation at NEAR Protocol, Vice President of Product Management at Kraken. I enjoy digging into customer problems and solving them with a balance of design and engineering thinking. I understand how to build products from 0 to 1 and 1 to n. To accomplish this I focus on building closely connected teams and quickly adapting to insights. Throughout my career at LinkedIn, Microsoft, and as a startup Cofounder I have thrived in product leadership roles. My personal and professional experiences have taught me the following: - I am sharply focused on utility. I’m constantly asking, “How do we take our superpowers and turn them into a 10x value exchange for a customer?” This is how we arrived at our most used and valuable version of Kettle. - I know how to manage cohesive B2C2B ecosystems. I have built connected products across: web, mobile (iOS/Android/mobile web), APIs, analytics, and desktop. - I build strong relationships. I led roadmap planning for a 70+ person R&D organization and 600+ professional service personnel with OKRs, and I launched a developer platform at LinkedIn with 30+ corporate partners. - I have an intuition for monetization. I conducted the first Global Fortune 500 paid product analysis at LinkedIn, I created new mobile paid acquisition flows, and I worked on startup acquisitions that helped Sales Navigator more than double its subscription price and 10x revenue in 4 years.
