• Manage the full lifecycle from launch to end of life, tracking revenue, margin, adoption, quality and support needs
• Contribute to pricing, packaging and business cases, and equip Marketing, Sales and Presales for launches
• Engage strategic customers and partners, and monitor technology, standards, regulation and competitors

What you will bring

• Significant B2B product management experience with measurable commercial impact, including ownership of strategy, roadmaps, prioritisation and lifecycle decisions
• Experience with technical products: connected hardware, embedded software or software-enabled systems
• Strong customer discovery skills and commercial acumen, and the confidence to make decisions on incomplete evidence
• A track record of working with engineering leaders in iterative development and influencing without formal authority
