About the Role

We are looking for a user-centric Product Manager to lead a single, dedicated software development team. Your main goal is to find customer frustrations, use data to design smart solutions, and deliver features that make a real business impact.

You will own the 1-year product strategy, work side-by-side with engineers and designers, and act as the voice of the customer.

• Strategy & Roadmap: Set the 1-year vision and manage the short-term team roadmap (Scrum/Kanban).

• Customer Insights: Partner with UX designers to interview users, run surveys, and turn feedback into actionable feature ideas.

• Data & Testing: Define success metrics and run experiments (A/B testing) to prove your features actually solve user problems.

• Tech Partnership: Work with the Engineering Manager to navigate trade-offs and build a bridge between technical and business teams.

• Stakeholder Management: Update and align business stakeholders and directors on product progress.

• Experience managing software products from concept to launch.

• A strong data-driven mindset with experience in product analytics and experimentation.

• Familiarity with UX design practices and user research methods.

• Excellent communication skills-able to speak clearly to developers and business directors alike.

• Technical curiosity; you don't need to code, but you understand how software is built.
