Multi-Platform App Development at Scale: Building with Flutter Across Web, Mobile, and Beyond

Working at Very Good Ventures (VGV), a Flutter development agency specializing in building high-performance digital products using Google’s multiplatform framework, was one of the most interesting roles of my career. During my time at VGV, Flutter was still in its infancy at only 3 years old, which placed our work at the forefront of shaping how the framework was applied in real-world production environments. Clients partnered with VGV as trusted experts in Flutter, relying on the team to guide product development toward scalable, cohesive experiences across web, mobile, desktop, and embedded platforms. In this role, I led digital product development and design teams for high-visibility initiatives, helping ensure products were built with technical excellence, user clarity, and long-term scalability.

overview

As a Senior Program Manager at Very Good Ventures, I led multiplatform app development for global clients, balancing product management with program, project, and account responsibilities across complex, cross-functional engagements. I partnered closely with engineering, UX design, product, and research teams to define product features and user stories, establish delivery workflows, and manage dependencies across highly technical builds. My focus was on translating ambiguity into structured execution, guiding teams through design and development milestones, and sustaining momentum in fast-moving, multi-team environments where scale, reliability, and platform quality were critical.

My work included:

  • Program-managed multi-platform digital product development using Flutter across web, mobile, desktop, and embedded platforms

  • Led high-visibility, multi-million-dollar initiatives in partnership with internal and external cross-functional teams

  • Defined product features, user stories, and delivery milestones in close collaboration with engineering, UX, product, and research

  • Established and maintained delivery workflows, review cadences, and sprint ceremonies across distributed teams, managing complex dependencies, timelines, and risks

  • Led delivery of high-visibility initiatives for Google's Flutter team including the redesign and rebuild of Flutter.dev and developer-focused product demos such as the Google I/O Virtual Photobooth and Flutter Slide Puzzle

  • Led IoT app development for Fell Tech's Abra smarthome product across mobile and embedded devices, partnering with stakeholders to define product features, manage complex dependencies, and deliver a technically robust connected platform

    “I got the chance to bring Megan into the start of the Program Management team at Very Good Ventures. This meant that it was up to us to set in place the standards and practices to get the practice and team off the ground and running which was no easy feat in a small but rapidly growing company.

    During this time Megan had to wear many hats as the Program Manager role really was a catch all for everything we needed to get a program delivered outside of the main engineering tasks. In a scaled organization the roles of account, program, product, and development manager would all be separate roles but we didn’t have that scale. Megan was able to step up to the challenge and get projects delivered with her team on time and on budget. Her project load ranged from small startups all the way up to showcase projects for Google and their I/O conference.

    During the time that I was managing Megan I truly had a partner that I knew I could rely on. She knew when it was time to buckle down and get something done versus when to push back when things didn’t make sense for the project, team, or company to ensure we did the right thing rather than just the easy thing to get past an issue.

    I enjoyed having Megan as part of my team and I hope our paths cross in the future as it would be great to work with her again.”

Through my work at Very Good Ventures, I helped teams deliver complex, multi-platform digital products in environments where scale, technical rigor, and cross-team coordination were critical to success. By balancing product leadership with program, project, and account responsibilities, I supported high-visibility initiatives from early definition through execution. This experience strengthened my ability to guide distributed teams through ambiguity, align stakeholders around shared goals, and deliver scalable, reliable products built to perform at global scale.
