Joel Polanco's Linkedin Analytics

I'm known for bringing order to chaos and simplifying complex ideas. I'm experienced in B2B product management, segment marketing, enterprise IoT, semiconductors, and go-to-market strategy. Currently, I work as a segment manager in the Network and Edge Group at Intel where I've defined a business strategy for two markets - commercial gaming and office automation. I also run a customer discovery consultancy and advise early stage startups on business model generation and market validation through customer interviews and early experimentation. Formerly, I managed a product marketing team at Intel and produced two podcasts "To the edge and beyond" and "Health and life sciences at the edge." I had the opportunity to help grow the careers of several product marketers who have gone on to start their own businesses and grow into larger roles at Intel. Before that, I was a senior product manager in the IoT Group at Intel where I built a RFID Sensor Platform which drove fast and efficient inventory monitoring in several industries including Retail, QSR, and Manufacturing. Our product was awarded "Design Win of the Year in 2020" for enabling $10M in edge server design wins at large enterprise customers. Outside of Intel I enjoy writing about product, advising startups, and coaching founders. ​If you are struggling with your customer discovery efforts, I know I will be able to help you.
