Jamie Dennis — interactive CV covering career history, skills, and AI tooling work
Senior Product Manager with 11 years delivering measurable impact across e-commerce, internal systems, CMS and SaaS – spanning sport, media, telecoms, fintech and tech. I work at the strategic end of product: building the business cases and multi-quarter roadmaps that shape product-line direction, influencing priorities beyond my own squad, and turning ambiguous problems into approved, delivered outcomes. Alongside this I level up the wider product team through reusable tooling and mentoring, equally comfortable modernising back-office operations as launching consumer-facing platforms. AWS ML certified and a hands-on adopter of AI tooling.
