Jenica Watts

Project Manager, Sphero

Denver

I am the Product Manager for Sphero 2.0, Sphero Inc.’s flagship product. I sustain Sphero’s current hardware

and software offerings while guiding the creative and technical development process for future efforts. I partner cross-functionally with all of our departments to make our connected play robots reality. I take creating play seriously; advocating for the end user, finding the fun, and proving through play.

I have grown with Sphero from startup. Prior to product management, I project managed hardware development and wrangled logistics, customer support, volume sales, and education under the operations team. In that role, I developed and launched SPRK, Sphero’s STEAM education program, which now reaches tens of thousands of schools and hundreds of thousands of students.

A Colorado native, when I’m not at the office I enjoy skiing, backpacking, rock climbing, cooking, film, hiking with my rescue dog Mufasa, and serving the homeless with AfterHours Denver.
