Daphne L. Isom, M.A.
Staff Product Manager, AI & Learning Platforms
Austin, TX
A product manager who builds the automation herself.
Two decades bridging software engineering and learning. I lead platform migrations, build AI agents that teams beyond my own can use, and bring an engineer's rigor to product decisions. CS degree, M.A. in educational technology leadership.
AI Product & Automation
Shipping AI agents and automation that teams can use, with human review built in.
Content & Learning Operations
Running the systems behind learning content: standards, vendors, and production workflows at scale.
Platform Migration
Moving large content libraries to new platforms, with automation in place of manual rework.
Technical Learning Design
Designing learning pathways and technical curriculum with measurable outcomes.
Cross-Functional Leadership
Aligning engineering, learning, marketing, and vendors around one plan.

My Approach
I get hands-on with the system, not just the spec. I close the gap between a stuck problem and a working solution, build human review into every AI tool, and hand work off with a clear owner. My engineering background means I can prototype, validate, and ship, not just specify.
