Dejan Krstic

Dejan Krstic is the Chief Product Officer at Product School, where he now leads the Learning Platform team, overseeing product for the very courses and tools he spent years teaching on. He spent over four and a half years as a part-time instructor at Product School while serving as a Group Product Manager at Spotify, working to unlock the potential and creativity of artists. Before Spotify, he spent almost three years as a Lead PM at SoundCloud, focused on insights, royalties, and reporting, and over eight years at BMG – The New Music Company, working his way up from Junior Manager to Business Analysis Director. In total, he brings more than 12 years of product experience and a deep motivation to solve user problems in ways that create real value for his team.

Through his years teaching at Product School, Dejan came to know the product and team inside and out, going above and beyond for every PM he trained, helping revamp most of the course catalog, massively improving the learning platform, and helping recruit other instructors. He is an extremely collaborative leader who has impressed colleagues with his top-notch problem-solving skills, always willing to dig in on a complex problem and get it solved effectively and efficiently, and he brings the same genuine appreciation for giving and receiving constructive feedback to his new role as CPO.
