Todd Wilkens
I support companies of all sizes to enable sustainable growth and scale, from concept to IPO and beyond. I have overseen 100%+ YoY revenue growth and a rise to $5B+ valuation at three consecutive companies (Remote, Auctane, and WooCommerce). The products, tools, and platforms my teams have built are used by 100’s of millions of end users, millions of SMBs, and 100k+ developers, generating $15B+ in GMV, 1B+ shipments, and $400M+ in revenue every year.
I’ve been an advisor or fractional CPO/exec for multiple companies, including Gavel (y-combinator 2022), Extendify, and Pendo. I have worked closely with portfolio companies at Heartcore Capital.
I’m the former Chief Product Officer for both Remote and Auctane, where I led product management, design, product-led growth, and was a key member of the executive leadership team for the business overall. I was the SVP/GM of WooCommerce (at Automattic), the second largest e-commerce platform (after Shopify). I was responsible for the entire P&L and ran all functions (product, engineering, marketing, partnerships, etc.). I have also held leadership roles at Atlassian, IBM, Adaptive Path, and the Mayo Clinic. O’Reilly author and speaker.
I have extensive experience with distributed & remote teams, E-commerce, developer-focused products, healthcare, shipping and logistics, payments, fintech, and collaborative work tools. I am a dedicated and active advocate for accessibility, inclusion, and diversity in the teams I work with and for the customers those teams serve.
Do not hesitate to reach out if you believe I could be of service to you or your portfolio companies. (Also, open to a full-time CPO role at the right company.)
