Having worked at huge businesses like Google, and early stage startups like Pulse (which is now LinkedIn’s news feed), Jean Hsu has mastered the challenges that come at every level.
Now VP of Engineering at Range, having taken the role mid-pandemic, Jean is the perfect person to share the joys and drawbacks of working within early stage startups, and why you should question your assumptions about them.
She joins me on episode 2 of Leaders Unscripted to detail her route into tech, the value of a trust bank within your network, and how the VP role evolves in unique ways.
This episode covers:
- Jean’s route into tech and development experience at Google before the startup life
- How the VP role drastically differs from the manager role with a big picture outlook
- The value of a trust bank with your network
- Assumptions on life within early stage startups, and whether they align with reality
