    I started in tech, discovered product management, and after 95%+ of my applications ended in rejection or silence, finally landed my first PM role at a small IT company.
    Working in a tiny team pushed me into both product and marketing. In 2023, a mentor helped me realize that this combination could become my niche: Product Marketing.
    After a few months of searching, I found the right fit — a remote-first B2B SaaS startup where I could combine product, marketing, and strategy.
    In November 2023, I became a Middle Product Marketing Manager.
    My biggest lessons: trust your intuition, don’t let rejection define you, and don’t be afraid to build a career at the intersection of different skills.

  • Designing a YouTube-to-MP4 Flow That Fails Honestly

    This story was originally published on HackerNoon at: https://hackernoon.com/designing-a-youtube-to-mp4-flow-that-fails-honestly.

    A video-conversion interface should not promise a resolution before it knows what the source and provider can actually deliver.
    That sounds like a small copy decision, but it is an implementation decision too. A user who asks for 1080p needs an observable path from input to result—not a button that silently substitutes a file without explaining what happened.
