Lenny's Podcast: Product | Career | Growth · Anthropic’s first technical PM on token maxing, the jagged edge, and living in the future | Dianne Penn · 26 Jul 2026 podcast

So when I was at JP Morgan, I,

Trading floor you could kind of envision like sort of waffle Wall Street.

That's very different Most traders I think are in front of a terminal.

They're much more doing analyses on their computers but it's still very I would say like male-dominated and so I was the only woman I was the only Person with like my background on the trading desk and I learned that I

that was a very good environment to kind of building, one, my sense of authentic self, and two, that even if I was the most junior person, even if I may look different, that the best ideas

and having conviction in the best ideas.

And regardless of all of those other factors, like it's the most important thing.

And so I think just bringing that sense of how I show up more at work, I'm pretty vulnerable and authentic with my team.

I try to really make sure that regardless of people's levels or tenures, if they have a great idea, how to help them pursue that.

and to do also the same.

So to like put the idea out there, to actually have conviction in it, to do the follow through, to do the like nitty gritty work to make it happen.

So those were all things that I learned from trading.

And yeah, I think applies to any job in many ways.

I don't have a large presence on social.

I think the best way to find my work, my team's work, is really the Anthropic blog and when we're publishing new models, new product experiences.

I think in terms of...

useful for me.

I think the best thing, number one, is your feedback.

If you thumbs up or thumbs down on any of our product surfaces, if you contact your salesperson with feedback about the model, it will make its way to me.

With every research model, I actually get pretty close into understanding favorability and feedback
