Job description

Analog is seeking a Principal Product Manager to lead product discovery, roadmap development, and backlog quality for multiple delivery teams within a significant digital transformation program. You will be instrumental in translating operator and end-user needs into a prioritized set of releases, ensuring delivery teams focus on achieving outcomes rather than just output.

What You'll Do

Discovery and Roadmap: Spearhead product discovery across multiple delivery teams, transforming operator and end-user needs into a clear, prioritized roadmap.
Backlog Quality: Maintain high-quality backlogs across all teams, ensuring each item is well-defined, appropriately sized, and linked to measurable outcomes.
Customer Validation: Conduct structured discovery sessions with customers and operators to validate assumptions before engineering resources are committed.
Outcome Metrics: Define and track outcome metrics for each release, holding teams accountable for achieving results, not just task completion.
Cross-Team Alignment: Harmonize roadmap priorities across multiple delivery teams, adeptly resolving trade-offs and sequencing decisions.
Stakeholder Collaboration: Work closely with engineering, design, and the principal solution architect to ensure scope is realistic and technically sound.
Communication & Feedback: Represent the product roadmap to customers, partners, and leadership, and effectively translate feedback into actionable priorities.
Go-to-Market Support: Provide clear release notes and positioning for new capabilities to support go-to-market and delivery teams.

Who You Are

Experience: Possess substantial experience as a Senior or Principal Product Manager, with a proven track record of owning roadmaps and discovery across multiple teams.
Outcome Focus: Demonstrate a history of translating end-user or operator needs into shipped products that deliver measurable outcomes.
Accountability: Be comfortable holding delivery teams accountable for achieving outcomes, not merely delivering features.
Complex Platforms: Have experience working with complex, multi-team platforms, ideally within defense, government, or other regulated sectors.
Communication Skills: Exhibit strong facilitation and communication skills, effectively engaging with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Data-Informed Approach: Employ a structured, data-informed methodology for prioritization and roadmap decisions.
