About
Built by a Product Leader, for Product Leaders
Product Wise was founded by Imran Dhansey, a Product Management and Business Analysis practitioner with 20 years of experience taking software from discovery through to live delivery.
Having led discovery phases, owned roadmaps, and managed cross-functional squads of engineers, designers, and researchers across complex regulated and commercial environments, Imran started Product Wise to bring real practitioner judgment to a recruitment market overrun by keyword-matching generalists.
When you work with Product Wise, you work directly with Imran. Every brief is scoped with engineering reality in mind, and every candidate is interviewed like a future team member.
Our Principles
How we do things differently
Practitioner-level scrutiny
We don't search databases with Boolean buzzwords. We review backlog artifacts, roadmap decision-making, and how candidates communicate technical trade-offs.
Respect for candidate and client time
No sending 20 CVs to see what sticks. We send 3 to 5 targeted profiles who have been thoroughly qualified for capability, culture, and compensation.
Specialist focus
We exclusively recruit Product Managers, Product Owners, and Business Analysts. We know the day-to-day realities of the discipline because we've lived it.
Specialist Sectors
Deep roots in regulated & high-stakes tech
Our 20-year delivery background spans high-compliance environments where mistakes are costly. We specialize in placing Product and BA talent in:
GovTech & CivicTech
State & local software, municipal platforms, and public service modernization.
FinTech & RegTech
Payments, banking, AML/KYC, and compliance-driven financial software.
Cybersecurity & Cloud Infra
SecOps, developer tooling, zero-trust systems, and platform engineering.
HealthTech & Digital Health
Clinical workflows, health data exchanges, HIPAA-compliant patient platforms.
