Product Leader, Operator, Builder

Audio, Media, and Tech

Founder, Auxbus, acquired by Libsyn

Dan Radin

In 2017, I built a podcast SaaS company from scratch. In 2021, I sold it to Libsyn. That's the shortest version of a story that shaped how I think about product, creators, and what it actually takes to build something people depend on.

Auxbus was a platform for novice podcasters who wanted to produce great audio without a production team. We helped people create tens of thousands of podcasts and had a 4.95/5 customer satisfaction score at exit. The experience gave me a ground-level understanding of creator workflows, hosting dynamics, and SaaS retention that I haven't found anywhere else.

Before that, I spent nearly a decade in hardware product management: 75+ products across consumer audio, professional audio, and sport tech at Sennheiser, InMusic/Alesis, SteelSeries, and Harman/JBL. That work taught me to own a product end-to-end: customer insight to engineering collaboration to market launch. I built the Under Armour Project Rock headphones with Dwayne Johnson and a cross-functional team, reaching $10M in revenue in year one.

After Auxbus was acquired, I led product marketing at iZotope through a full business model transformation, perpetual licensing to subscription, working directly with Product and Engineering on packaging, pricing, and retention strategy through 25% revenue growth and a successful acquisition. Then spent two years at Sorenson building a corporate incubator, taking six new market opportunities from discovery through customer pilots.

The through line: I'm a hands-on operator. I make roadmap decisions, work with engineering on tradeoffs, run customer discovery, and own outcomes. Four exits across a 20-year career spanning startups, corporate, and consulting.

Currently seeking Product leadership roles in media, audio, or creator technology. Southeastern CT or remote.
