Summary
David Roberts is a product and design leader with eight years of focused experience and a broader 15+ year track record across startups, consulting and product-led companies. As VP Product and Design at n8n.io and formerly Head of Product at super.AI, he blends hands-on product strategy with design-led execution for developer and data-centric platforms. He co-founded Locarta, building a privacy-first location analytics business that reached 70% of top German retailers and grew revenue 170% after a strategic pivot. Earlier McKinsey roles honed his commercial rigor—driving multi-million dollar programs and shipping a PowerPoint extension adopted by thousands firm-wide. Technically grounded (MEng Computer Engineering) with an MBA from INSEAD, he pairs growth-hacking, user acquisition playbooks and privacy-aware product design. He’s equally comfortable cold-calling prospects on a roadshow as he is defining product architecture for complex data products.
