Andrew Germer

Product marketing and GTM leader with deep customer insight, strong product instincts, and AI-native execution fluency. I turn customer insight into positioning, launches, onboarding, and adoption — then build the systems that help teams scale it.

The Fit

What I bring to product marketing

Marketer's empathy
the practitioner's view
  • Fifteen-plus years doing the actual work — positioning, messaging, lifecycle, and demand — so I know what marketers need from a product because I've needed it myself.
  • I write for the buyer in the room, not the spec sheet.
Research → roadmap
insight that ships
  • I ran product and user research as a standing input into the roadmap, turning customer signal into product, conversion, and messaging decisions.
  • I find the insight, then turn it into positioning a team can act on.
Builds with AI
daily, in production
  • Ship production software end-to-end with an agentic AI workflow — Cursor, Claude Code, Codex.
  • This page is an example: an interactive artifact built to show how I think, not just tell you.
Operationalizes launches
the part that scales
  • I turn ambiguity into systems that hold up at volume — launch readiness, internal tooling, and workflows other people can run without me.
  • Built and handed off an internal ordering platform for a hospice client; first hire who scaled two startup teams past 100.

Products and Projects

Ticket Timeline● LIVE ON APP STORE & PLAY · SHIPPED IN 4 MONTHS

A Flutter consumer app (Supabase backend) that turns live-sports attendance into a personal collection — built solo, concept to App Store approval in four months. I made the architecture and data-model calls, integrated a sports-data API, built a multi-sport reference layer across 6 leagues, and designed a rarity-scoring and achievement system around how fans actually engage. I also designed the UI myself in Figma.

Deathwishes● LIVE ON APP STORE · 3 MONTHS

End-of-life and legacy-planning app (Flutter / Firebase), rebuilt from scratch — first concept to App Store approval in three months. Product and build lead (equity): designed the cloud-sync architecture, implemented AES-GCM encryption for sensitive data, shipped a redesigned onboarding flow, and scoped a B2B white-label path for hospices.
