Product Manager & Builder
Sadman Shafique
I ship products from zero to traction.
I've shipped 20+ production products. I'm just getting started.
About
I started my career leading a team of nine developers to build TryOnBooth, a markerless web based AR virtual try-on platform that raised angel investment while I was still completing my degree at the University of Waterloo. That experience of building something from nothing, managing a team, and navigating the pressure of a funded startup shaped how I think about product work to this day.
I am now a product manager with four years of experience shipping products across AI, AR/VR, mobile, and web. At Eptics I have led end to end product delivery across 15+ client products spanning pharmaceutical training, urban agriculture, mental health, B2B manufacturing, and more. I work directly with engineering and design teams, own the roadmap, manage stakeholder relationships, and make sure things actually get built and shipped.
Outside of client work I build my own products. Beavermade is a Canadian product discovery platform that reached 10,000 organic users within weeks of launch with zero paid acquisition and earned national coverage in CBC News and the Toronto Sun. Caloreach is a weight loss web app powered by AI that went from zero to production ready MVP in eight weeks. Fidgyboard is a task management system designed specifically for how ADHD brains actually operate and is still actively being built.
I have also spoken at a national webinar through a partnership with Futurpreneur Canada to over 100 entrepreneurs on AI and automation.
I am CSM and CSPO certified and hold a Bachelor of Mathematics in Information Technology Management from the University of Waterloo.
I care about building things that solve real problems cleanly and ship on time. That has been the through line across everything I have worked on.

How I Build: Zero to One
Identify
Find a real problem worth solving. Validate with users, not assumptions.
Research
Map the competitive landscape. Understand user pain points deeply.
Scope
Define the MVP. Ruthlessly cut to the smallest thing that delivers value.
Build
Ship in sprints. Work directly with engineering. Iterate on real feedback.
Launch
Get it live. Measure what matters. Learn fast, ship faster.
Let's build something.
I'm always interested in ambitious projects, collaborations, and conversations worth having.
