• Translate customer, field and market needs into clear, measurable priorities.
• Balance short‑term needs against the platform’s long‑term vision.
• Own and prioritize the backlog: user stories, use cases and acceptance criteria (in partnership with a BA depending on the project).

• Use field data (telemetry, diagnostics, customer and support feedback) to prioritize and measure the value delivered.
• Build connected‑device security requirements and, when needed, certification milestones into the plan.

Governance & stakeholders

• Provide visibility on the roadmap, risks and mitigation plans within physical product development governance.
• Align technical, operations, marketing, sales and support teams around the product vision.

• A solid understanding of firmware and electronics development and their constraints.
• Proficiency in Agile (Scrum, Kanban), Jira and Confluence.
• A university degree in engineering, computer science, information systems or a related field.
• Fluency in French and English: you’ll work frequently with contacts outside Quebec.
