“It’s rare to come across a standout software product leader like Pete. Pete was part of my leadership team at Vela Systems for five years, owning the head of products role in developing the Vela Field Management product line. We worked closely during that time period through to the acquisition by Autodesk. He earned the respect of everyone on my management team and the board for his insights and product development abilities in an industry where he had no prior experience. Confident and calm under pressure, Pete has the unique ability to both work at the board-level in terms of driving the company strategic direction and decision making, and also speak with customers from the C-level to end users, to create highly successful products. He’s also mastered both the art and science of product management, navigating the nuances of dealing with the founders’ ideas and balancing that with a solid product management process with the voice of the customers. In addition to driving the development teams, he worked directly with the sales leadership and team to win many of our enterprise accounts, with a firm understanding of software sales. He is an expert in all aspects of bringing new software products to market including product marketing and demand generation. Pete also played a key role in driving an acquisition for Vela. Convincing the management team and board to acquire a company he found that had unique IP, he drove that acquisition and integration of the company into Vela to create a product that was unlike anything else on the market – the first enterprise application for the construction industry with 3D visualization on mobile devices, integrated with a complete suite of workflow apps. This acquisition had a direct impact on the offer from Autodesk to acquire Vela, and was one of the keys to our success. Pete has earned my highest recommendation and I believe he could be successful in many future roles as a product leader, general manager, or CEO of a software company. ”
