Customer engagement company Urban Airship today announced Greg Biggers has joined its senior leadership team as vice president of product and design. Biggers will be responsible for leading product management, product design, product discovery and user research.
Biggers has spent the past 20 years building software products at fast-growing technology companies across mobile, SaaS, CRM and martech, resulting in more than $3 billion in acquisition value at Responsys, Chordiant and Vantive. Most recently, he was the CEO and Chief Product Officer at Akimbo, where he was responsible for corporate strategy and product development. Prior to that, Greg served as Chief Product and Marketing Officer for SenseLabs and Genomera where he led product, design, engineering, marketing and sales teams. Earlier in his career, Greg helped create the martech and customer experience categories as product management director at Responsys as the company’s first product management hire, and at Chordiant (now Pegasystems).
A leader in the high-tech product community, Greg created the Product Management Immersive curriculum and program at General Assembly, where he continues to serve as faculty, growing the next generation of product leaders and entrepreneurs.
