Howdy (my apologies for cross-posting),
I'm pleased to announce that the Community Tech team has a new Product Manager – Danny Horn, who will be moving from the Collaboration team to join this new initiative. The Community Tech team is focused on building improved curation and moderation tools for experienced Wikimedia editors.[1] Danny will be working with the team to develop the upcoming Community Wishlist Survey, which will help the team define and prioritize future projects.[2] We're excited to have someone with Danny's product management experience as well as extensive wiki community experience working with this team.
Danny’s role on the Collaboration team will be filled by a new Product Manager which the Foundation is hiring for now. There’s an open job posting on the WMF job board.[3]
Looking forward to working with Danny to build some awesome tools for the community!

Danny, we're going to miss you a lot on the Collaboration team.
But I'm also excited about the work that the Community Tech team is doing. These are important areas that WMF hasn't always spent enough resources on.
