Daragh Kan - "There's no backup"

Description

Daragh Kan has been the first product manager at not one but two fast-growing startups — Me&U (formerly Mr Yum) and Cuttable. He’s built products under pressure, scaled alongside founders, and brought a deep sense of user empathy from years running his own hospitality venues.

What I like about Daragh’s perspective is how much of it comes from actually doing the job, not in theory, but in the mess of real-world complexity. He’s made big product bets, worked through early hiring chaos, and found ways to bring structure without slowing teams down.
