Background

About Kyle Youngkin

Product Owner who transforms complex business challenges into intuitive digital experiences that users actually want to use. Currently at Performance Golf driving mobile app development workflows and coordinating with global engineering teams to deliver golf technology solutions, building on my 6+ years in the industry where I helped deliver 800+ custom mobile apps for courses nationwide. I specialize in bridging the gap between stakeholder vision and engineering reality — whether that's translating product requirements into actionable development tickets, coordinating sprint workflows across distributed teams, or ensuring seamless delivery from concept to release. My approach combines systems thinking, technical fluency, and deep user empathy. I believe great products come from asking why before jumping to how. My experience spans leading four agile teams under SAFe at DUAL North America (with proven results including 90% client retention and $2M ARR management) to now coordinating development efforts across two overseas engineering teams. I thrive in environments where technology meets real-world operations, whether that's on the golf course or in the boardroom. Also: lifelong golfer, classic rock fan, guitar tone chaser, and San Diego sports loyalist. Always interested in connecting with fellow product people and anyone passionate about building things that matter. Let's connect!
