Background

About John Pegum

I’m a Senior Product Leader with 15+ years of experience scaling SaaS and digital platforms across global B2B and B2C markets. I’ve managed $25M+ portfolios, launched AI-enabled services that delivered $135k in revenue within six months, and built a digital learning platform with a $350k+ pipeline. My focus has always been on turning customer and market insight into strategies, roadmaps, and launches that drive measurable growth. Along the way, I’ve built and led international teams across six countries, embedding discovery, experimentation, and agile practices to accelerate delivery. I’ve driven $200k+ in annual efficiencies through workflow automation, relaunched flagship services that boosted orders by 45% and revenue by 33%, and partnered with world-leading institutions to create entirely new revenue streams. Colleagues know me for bridging business and technology — shaping portfolio investments with executives while working hand-in-hand with engineering and design. What excites me most is solving problems that matter: removing barriers for customers, creating products that scale, and building teams that thrive. I believe in balancing data-driven decisions with vision and storytelling, and I bring curiosity, resilience, and a collaborative approach to every challenge.
