About the role
Our Product and Delivery teams work at the intersection of customer needs, technology, and execution - turning complex problems into clear, customer-focused solutions. We operate in a fast-moving Agile environment where priorities evolve quickly, and success depends on strong communication, thoughtful planning, and close collaboration across product, design, and engineering. We value curiosity, structured thinking, and a strong discovery mindset to ensure we are solving the right problems.
The Product Manager will own sprint planning, backlog grooming, and velocity tracking using tools such as Jira or Azure Boards, while leading requirement gathering and translating customer needs and product roadmaps into clear, actionable specifications. This role requires a solid understanding of AWS, API-driven platforms, and microservices from a product perspective, enabling effective partnership with engineering teams without direct development responsibilities. Familiarity with AI/ML and GenAI concepts, a strong grasp of product design principles, and excellent stakeholder management skills are critical to driving alignment and delivering high-quality, impactful products.
