I’m a senior mobile developer who is ready to transition to the product side (PM). Side projects have been my passion because I love product, the ideas, the journey and the dream. As a developer, I feel constrained to the code and less involved in the product as a whole. I have too many ideas and not enough time in the day. I know native mobile like the back of my hand and can definitely bridge the technical gap working with engineers and biz dev. I’m just looking for a shot, I know with my tech background and communication skills I can lead in a team environment and bring great things to a product.
Thank you so much for the response. I didn't notice any activity on the post.

Great advice about filling the gaps outside of development and I'm definitely giving that a go this year, as there's so much time to do so! Side projects well underway and pushing them beyond just a release -- marketing and then some.

Will checkout the certifications and hopefully that'll make the transition that much easier.

Thanks again!

Ask HN: Transition from mobile developer to Product management?

I have been a ‘hybrid’ mobile developer (native iOS & android) for over 5 years now. Have had a great career so far and worked with some prominent companies and smaller startups throughout. I also build my mobile passion projects on the side. I’ve delved in the server side quite a bit as well, mainly REST api’s and some frontend. Truth be told, I love coding and the problem solving...
