Overview

I took this class in preparation for a proposal for a new job opportunity and the chance to create a net new opportunity within the company I work in. It ws a great experience in that I was able to collaborate across divisions and enact massive organizational change with the adoption of my proposal.

Program Description

Product School’s AI for Product Certification offered hands-on experience in building AI-driven products, designing AI-native user experiences, and optimizing non-deterministic systems.

This certification covered AI strategy, prompt engineering, and GenAI product development, equipping me with the skills required to integrate AI capabilities into product roadmaps and create user-centric, AI-powered solutions.

Through practical projects and industry mentorship, I completed projects that tested my ability to implement AI product strategy, design AI-native user experiences, and create a GenAI Product Requirement Document (PRD).

My final project focused on accelerating ASIC chip design automation using Generative AI, aligning AI innovation with real-world business objectives at my current company.
