"My first job out of college was at Microsoft, where I worked as a program manager and product manager from 2018 to 2023. In January 2023, I left my Big Tech job to work for a creator commerce platform. There, I developed an AI product, which led to me landing a senior AI role at Microsoft in July 2024. In the current job market, AI feels like the safest domain to be an expert in."
"At the time, I wanted to build a content repurposing tool to help creators increase their reach. Many creators lack marketing experience, and I imagined the tool would use AI to generate content, for example by taking the transcript from a podcast episode and condensing it into a blog. I thought it could also chop up a creator's hourlong video into short-form videos for TikTok and Instagram."
Sophia Sun worked at Microsoft from 2018 to 2023 as a program and product manager, contributing to HoloLens and edtech teams. She created a podcast and pursued creator-economy roles, then left Microsoft in January 2023 to join Kajabi as a senior product manager. At Kajabi she developed an AI product focused on content repurposing, envisioning tools that condense podcast transcripts into blogs and convert hourlong videos into short-form clips for social platforms. She returned to Microsoft in July 2024 in a senior AI product role. Her playbook is to identify a real user problem, build a lightweight AI solution, and use it as proof of work.
