Stephen currently leads product at Frontline Gig, an AI-powered workforce platform and staffing marketplace for trade roles. Since 2023, he has advised 10+ startups on product-market fit, product-led growth, and practical AI (use cases, data readiness, evaluation, guardrails).
Stephen’s mentorship style is practical and supportive: understand the constraints (time, resources, data), find the real problem, define the smallest credible test, measure, and iterate.
