Engagements range from a short deep-dive on one hard question to an ongoing hands-on role, scoped to what's needed next, not a fixed package.
01
Figuring out who the product is really for, what problem it solves, and whether people actually want it, before a single line of code gets written.
02
The deliverable is the working product, not a stack of documents. Engineering works alongside strategy from day one, so the idea ships as something real people can use, not a spec handed to someone else to build.
03
For products with a lot of moving parts (logins and permissions, other systems to connect to, edge cases nobody thought of), someone has to get the details right before they become expensive mistakes.
Track record
Ten-plus years working the seam between business and engineering, across industries where getting the details wrong is expensive.
Industries
Fintech, logistics, public sector, social platforms, healthcare, and more: industries where a product has to work exactly as promised, not just look like it does.
Range
From fast-moving scaleups to regulated, multi-vendor platforms: the kind of environment where details can't be waved away.
About
Norte Product is an independent product strategy and delivery practice: the bridge between business and technology, for teams building software across industries like fintech, logistics, public sector, social platforms, and healthcare. Strategy and engineering work side by side, so what ships is a product built with intent, not a backlog executed to spec.
The practice starts by testing the idea, not by writing a spec: fewer assumptions, faster proof of what actually works. AI tools are part of that process by design, powering interactive strategy documents, rapid prototypes, and reporting that keeps everyone on the same page faster.
Based in Porto, Portugal, remote-first. Comfortable running discovery and delivery with distributed teams across US and European time zones.
