John Cutler focuses on the messy overlaps and patterns of product—The Beautiful Mess (the title of his newsletter). Until recently, John supported product teams at Toast as Senior Director, Product Enablement. Prior to Toast, he was a product evangelist and coach at Amplitude where he interacted with diverse product teams and product leaders from around the world. There are few people in the world that have this kind of exposure, and if you follow John’s writing over the last couple years I’m sure you can see the influence of this perspective. He has a background in product management and UX research, including B2B SaaS companies like Zendesk, Pendo, and AppFolio, and before that B2C, ad-tech, banking, and media. John is a prolific (or some might say obsessive) writer, with almost a thousand posts spread across various newsletters, blogs,and Medium.
