Product Manager

Department: Product

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Remote, Remote, Remote - EMEA

• Production Insights: As a key platform application the candidate requires a strong PM backbone with a focus on having built products that communicate complex datasets and provide actionable insights to different user groups. To succeed in this role, previous experience from manufacturing industries is a key differentiator for us. Whether you have stood on that shopfloor and owned its numbers yourself or have worked for manufacturing and know exactly what real value means to the people running a production line – we take “knowing our customers” very serious for this particular position. 
• Platform and Integrations: The focus as PM in this role will be on expanding our platform to cater for growing customers and markets, while creating meaningful integrations within our industries software ecosystem. Solid understanding of building future-proof and scalable platforms with lightweight integrations (API, MCP, etc.), connectivity, administration, and credential control is therefore key. Working closely together with the tech team, you need the ability to quickly learn and understand our clients workflows and tech environment, to prioritize platform development with the highest business outcome in mind. 
• HW/FW and Data Capture: This role is ideal for a structured PM that has previous experience closely collaborating with HW/FW teams and partnering with a senior technical lead on shaping the roadmap, combining technical requirements with business priorities and opportunities. Steering the hardware life cycle while making sure we have control of our deployed fleet is part of the job. You will work with technical leads expanding a system that can seamlessly capture data from devices in the field and inject it into a cloud platform requiring knowledge about connectivity, networks, protocols and integrations in the IoT space. 

Key Responsibilities

• Turn strategy into shipped products: Define roadmaps, prioritize ruthlessly, and work closely with stakeholders to ensure we solve the biggest problems our customers are facing.
• Lead across disciplines: Act as the glue between product, firmware, cloud, UX, and business stakeholders - making sure everyone is aligned, focused, and moving fast.
• Identify signals in noise: Clarify customer needs, outline their jobs to be done and translate findings into clear and concise user stories. 
• Spearhead continuous discovery: Build and maintain strong relationships with both internal and external stakeholders to gather key insights.
• Launch, learn, iterate: Drive product launches, gather customer feedback, and continuously evolve features based on real-world usage. 
• Own performance & outcomes: Define and track key performance metrics aligned with product objectives.

About you

• Solid Product Management Experience: You are well-versed in product management frameworks and agile processes and can bring them into play with a practical approach, leveraging frameworks where they create clarity, structure, and speed.
• For the “Production Insights focus”: Youve worked hands-on on the shopfloor for a while. Youve been accountable for ensuring performance meets expectations by collaborating with the likes of operators, process engineers, continuous improvement leads, and plant or operations managers. This operational depth is what lets you translate real production pain into product decisions, and it is a hard requirement for this specific role — without it, the rest of the role is very difficult to do well. Our products play an essential role in manufacturing operations, and your experience within this field is essential. 
• A continuous discovery mindset: You talk to customers constantly, map their jobs to be done, and identify commonalities. Youre comfortable sitting with ambiguity until the real problem surfaces.
• Strong data and analytics instinct: Comfortable working with data and understanding how to turn analysis into concrete actions.
• A natural communicator: You speak the language of engineers, designers, operators, and leadership alike, adapting how you communicate to whoevers in the room.
• Driving teams: Proven ability to set and agree direction and goals with R&D teams, driving the team and getting to results in a manner where the team feels proud of the outcome.
