I've had an exciting journey across Latin America, Europe, and North America, taking on various positions as a Product Manager. I started off my career as an academic researcher in Denmark, but decided to join a startup instead and have been in tech for the past 10 years.
I have recently joined Loopio's product team, a Toronto-based software company that streamlines the RFP response process. Its software helps teams respond faster with higher quality and win more business.
Prior to my current role, I spent 4 and a half years at Hootsuite as a Senior Product Manager for their Engagement portfolio. Before that, I had the pleasure of leading a small and talented product team at Sympla, the largest online ticket and event platform in Latin America - similar to Eventbrite. I have also been part of product teams at Falcon.io and Tradeshift while living in Denmark.
Outside of work, I enjoy mentoring aspiring PMs at the University of British Columbia and contributing to the product community. You can reach me at cristiano.pio@loopio.com.
