About / Josh Child
A product perspective.
Built through experience.
I connect business goals, user needs, and technology to help teams define, deliver, and improve digital products.
The path here
My career began in web design and development. Over more than two decades, that work expanded into user experience, agency delivery leadership, SaaS product development, and internal operational software.
I’ve worked across the decisions that shape a product and the details that make it work: understanding users, defining requirements, designing interfaces, coordinating engineers, testing releases, and supporting the next iteration.
Teaching web development also shaped how I explain technical ideas and support others. I value clear communication, practical tools, and a shared understanding of the work.
Today, I bring those experiences together as a Product & Technology Leader. I’m interested in opportunities to help teams make thoughtful decisions and carry products forward.
