Joel Onwuanaku

Hello, 👋🏾 I'm Joel Onwuanaku,
Welcome To My Blog

My background is rooted deeply in the technical trenches. Before pivoting into product management, early in my career I was building full-stack web across multiple domains and later went on to lead agile engineering teams just before starting my MBA at the Gabelli School of Business, Fordham University.

One of the most memorable experience and a highlight of my career was when I later brought that engineering-first mindset to intern at Amazon as a Senior Product Manager - Technical, where I owned the lifecycle of a massive data product used by over 600 internal teams and worked alongside data engineers to design a dataset that drove a 3x increase in impressions.

On this blog, you’ll find me writing at the intersection of technology, engineering, and strategy. I love diving into the mechanics of ai-native ecosystems like LLMs, RAG, and agentic workflows, just as much as I enjoy talking about cloud infrastructure, devops, and the business strategies that turn technical execution into real-world value. Asides from writing, I am an avid reader, football fan (COYG), gadget enthusiast, married to my best friend and a lover of YHWH (ICFCWJ).
