About the Role
We're looking for a Product Manager to lead the planning, execution, and evolution of key product streams across our platform. This role is ideal for someone who can balance product thinking, delivery discipline, stakeholder management, and commercial awareness.
Key Responsibilities
- Own product planning and delivery for assigned modules, initiatives, and feature sets across the platform.
- Translate business goals, client needs, and operational challenges into clear product requirements and delivery plans.
- Write product documentation including PRDs, feature briefs, user stories, acceptance criteria, workflow definitions, and release notes.
- Work closely with engineering, design, QA, account management, and leadership teams to drive end-to-end execution.
- Communicate clearly with clients and external stakeholders to understand requirements, clarify scope, manage expectations, and represent product direction.
- Participate in client meetings, workshops, and requirement-gathering sessions when needed.
- Act as a bridge between external stakeholders and internal teams to ensure alignment while maintaining product quality and scalability.
- Prioritize the product backlog based on business value, product strategy, effort, dependencies, and delivery timelines.
- Support sprint planning, backlog grooming, and requirement clarification with technical teams.
- Ensure features are designed for scalability and reusability rather than one-off solutions.
- Coordinate with account managers and client-facing teams to gather structured feedback and convert it into actionable product inputs.
- Align internal and external stakeholders on roadmap priorities, tradeoffs, dependencies, and timelines.
- Monitor feature adoption, product performance, user feedback, and post-launch issues to guide product improvements.
- Support the rollout of new modules, integrations, AI-powered capabilities, and operational workflows.
- Maintain strong product operations through documentation, backlog management, releases, and cross-team communication.
Requirements
- 4–7 years of experience in Product Management, Product Ownership, or a similar role in SaaS, technology, or digital platforms.
- Strong experience writing user stories, acceptance criteria, and structured product documentation.
- Experience working closely with software engineering teams in agile or fast-moving delivery environments.
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, including dealing directly with clients and external partners.
- Ability to translate complex business requirements into practical and scalable product solutions.
- Comfortable managing competing priorities across multiple products, clients, or internal teams.
- Strong attention to detail and high ownership mentality.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- Experience using tools such as Jira, Notion, ClickUp, Confluence, Figma, or similar platforms.
