Sam Ayinla's Work | ContraWork by Sam AyinlaSam Ayinla
Technical Product & Project Manager for Startups
I worked across a portfolio of mobile products at Moodify, supporting product development from planning through release. My work included product evaluation and prioritization, developer coordination, QA and testing, monetization, documentation, and release management across products including Shuffl, PaperClip, and VoiceBox. I supported early stage product teams by creating structure around product work and keeping execution moving. This included organizing backlogs, translating product ideas into actionable requirements, coordinating developers and other contributors, tracking blockers and dependencies, supporting QA, and keeping releases organized.
The work sat between product, development, and delivery, making sure priorities were clear, work was properly defined, and projects continued moving from planning through release. Clink was a location based discovery feature I helped define and coordinate for Koktailz. I worked across user needs, feature requirements, product decisions, and cross functional delivery to bring the concept into the existing app experience. The feature connected discovery with real world places, giving users another way to find and interact with relevant people. MoodifySDK is an Android aftercall advertising SDK I helped take from development through integration and release. I coordinated the product scope, development, testing, SDK integration, and client delivery, including its first third party integration into VoiceBox. The integration was successfully released to production on Google Play.
