Product Hunt's new GM: Ashley Higgins

Today we are welcoming the latest member of the Product Hunt team: Ashley Higgins. She's joining to lead the product vision and company-wide execution as we bring Product Hunt into its next chapter.

Ashley is a talented product leader who has spent a decade building consumer products at scale, at companies like Reddit, Clearbit, and SEGA. She was the first mobile PM at Reddit, responsible for shipping their iOS and Android apps (on Product Hunt!). She then went on to found their search & discovery team to help user navigate the vast swathes of Reddit. We know her skills in growing community-led products will be instrumental in evolving Product Hunt over the coming years.

I've followed Ashley's career for many years, and am thrilled to welcome her on to help lead the team in achieving our long-time mission of empowering Makers and surfacing awesome products.

Ashley has been quietly working with the Product Hunt team for the last few months on some exciting new initiatives (more to share soon!) but we know that this year is going to be a big one for Product Hunt's community. We have a lot of work to do, and that means we are set to double our team this year. Please take a look at our current open roles and apply if you're interested in being part of our growing team.

Please join me in welcoming Ashley to the team! 🚀🌕😸
