Role Overview

This is a high-impact Product Manager role with strong Business Analyst ownership, suited for a hands-on operator who can take full accountability from problem discovery through to delivery execution.

You will act as a key partner to the CTO, owning critical product initiatives across the business. This role requires someone who can independently drive workstreams, interrogate stakeholders, define detailed requirements, and manage delivery with engineering teams.

Key Responsibilities

1. Requirements Ownership (Core Focus)

• Run discovery sessions and ask probing questions to uncover underlying business needs

• Interrogate business problems deeply to ensure solutions are well-defined and fit for purpose

• Act as the bridge between business and engineering, ensuring clarity and alignment

• Present progress updates and outputs to senior leadership and executive stakeholders

4. Cross-Functional Leadership

• Lead delivery across multiple product areas depending on business needs (e.g., Yoda platform, BMS)

• Work with dynamically assigned teams based on project requirements

• Coordinate engineers and stakeholders to deliver aligned outcomes

• Provide structured updates on delivery progress to leadership

• Present ideas, requirements, and solutions clearly and confidently

• Operate effectively in a high-visibility, stakeholder-facing role
