Product manager
Frames the right problem, aligns the people involved and turns uncertainty into a product direction.
Product & ventures
Turning complex operations into useful products.
Atahan Çiftçi is director and partner at sixtynine.digital, where he leads product and operations. He makes sure every solution fits the client, the challenge and the people who will actually use it.
Product management, development and system design are not separate stages. The best work happens when strategy, prototyping and operations stay in the same room — and when the team keeps asking not only whether something can be built, but whether it should be.
