What you will do

• Build an internal developer platform from scratch, defining what to build, buy, and expose through golden paths and governed tooling.
• Lead discovery with developers, architects, platform engineers, system administrators, and implementation teams to identify workflows, friction points, and adoption barriers.
• Own product outcomes and roadmaps, translating customer evidence and business strategy into prioritised requirements and acceptance criteria.
• Advocate for developer experience across APIs, SDKs, documentation, onboarding, and adoption, using these outcomes to measure product success.
• Make trade-off decisions covering customer value, long-term product health, scalability, extensibility, and build-versus-buy choices.
• Use AI in discovery, analysis, documentation, and the platform itself; partner with engineering and architecture, and coach other product managers.

Requirements

• Genuine product mindset focused on customer outcomes, adoption, and business value rather than features alone.
• Deep experience advocating for developers, architects, and platform engineers and changing product direction based on their feedback.
• Substantial product management experience in B2B enterprise, platform, developer, or infrastructure products, with independent ownership of outcomes at programme or product-line level.
• Proven customer discovery and co-creation skills, including turning evidence into roadmaps and build-ready requirements.
• Technical fluency sufficient to read APIs, schemas, logs, and code and discuss impact credibly with engineering and architecture; production coding is not required.
• Confidence making prioritisation and trade-off decisions and influencing engineers, architects, and senior stakeholders without formal authority.
• Excellent communication skills for translating technical complexity into business language and strategy into clear product direction, including confident leadership presentations.
• Experience coaching or mentoring product managers and establishing standards adopted by the team.
• AI-first working style with sound judgement about where AI is useful and where it is not.

Culture & Benefits

• Hybrid work and flexibility intended to support diverse needs while maintaining inclusive workplace connections.
• Collaborative, international environment focused on innovation, trust, sustainability, and positive global impact.
