Pros
Joined ConstructConnect to help drive the shift toward a true Product Operating Model (POM), and it’s been one of the more rewarding chapters in my career. If you care about outcomes over output, modern engineering practices, and using data/AI to actually move the needle for customers (contractors, architects, manufacturers), this is a genuinely excellent place to do that work and drive outcomes for the customers and business. - Stable product teams, clear charters, and outcome-based roadmaps are becoming the norm. Product, Engineering, Data, and ML are increasingly aligned around customer problems instead of project checklists. - The C-suite is leaning into AI and modernization; it’s tied directly to growth and strategy. - Impactful work in preconstruction. You get to build tools that actually matter to the ecosystem - helping contractors, estimators, and manufacturers work smarter and faster. It’s a niche, but it’s meaningful and growing to power the AMERICAN DREAM. -Across product, engineering, sales, and customer success, most folks genuinely want to do the right thing for customers and for each other. Low ego, approachable leadership, and room to influence.
Cons
There are older platforms and custom workflows with discipline to modernize. Do not expect a pure greenfield startup environment.
