Daniel Pitrowiski
Daniel "DJP" Pitrowiski is a California-based product designer with 16 years of experience building software and leading startups to acquisition. He is best known for a decade leading design for the Wootric customer experience platform, which carried him through acquisitions by InMoment and later Press Ganey. Enterprise customers of that platform include Foot Locker, DocuSign, Zoom, and Glassdoor across more than 80 countries.[1]
Background
Pitrowiski came to product design through startups, where the person drawing the screens was often also the person writing the spec, talking to customers, and running the support queue. That combination became his working style. Across 16 years he has been the individual contributor deep in the details and the leader setting the vision, often in the same quarter.

As UI/UX lead and product manager at Enthuse, a San Francisco sports-loyalty startup, Pitrowiski designed the iOS, Android, and web apps that rewarded college sports fans with points and real prizes for checking in at games and sharing photos. At the University of Miami, the first major partner, the app reached 12,500 fans, 27,000 check-ins, and 40,000 game RSVPs in its first quarter, with more than 10,000 sign-ups in launch week alone. He also designed the video boards, fliers, and signage that brought fans in at the Atlantic Sun and America East championships, while managing a distributed team across France, Indonesia, Australia, and Boston.
