Ben Wyndham – Product Manager
Hi! I’m Ben. I am a product manager based out of Salt Lake City, Utah. I work for Backcountry as the product manager for Enterprise Resource Planning. ERP touches order management, product information, inventory management, accounting, and finance functions, which has granted me a broad range of experiences.
I grew up in Texas, and have worked in the retail business for 5 years. After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin in Government and Business, I moved to Utah, where I discovered a passion for software product management.
One of my core values is lifelong learning. Over the past year, I have spent hundreds of hours expanding my knowledge in programming, machine learning, and system design. I have much more to learn, and continue to do so every day.
