We are hiring!

With IoT, digitalization, and data analytics, we are revolutionizing the energy, mobility, and recycling industries in 11 European countries. Our intelligent remote tank monitoring system optimizes sales, ordering, and delivery processes – creating real value for our customers. We’re hiring a Lead Product Manager to join our cross‑functional product organization, working hands‑on on our IoT measurement technology, customer app, and digital portal while leading and developing a few team members. You will combine strategic ownership, people leadership, and hands‑on product work. You’ll uncover real user problems, validate solutions early, and ensure that teams deliver measurable outcomes with real business impact. This is not a feature factory. We’re looking for a leader who thinks in outcomes, not outputs — and who leads by example through discovery, data, and close collaboration with design and engineering.

Your Mission.

• Lead continuous product discovery through interviews, tests, and prototypes
• Frame and prioritize problems based on real user needs and business goals
• Translate company strategy into a clear product vision and actionable roadmaps
• Define and track success metrics (e.g., activation rate, retention, device stability)
• Drive end‑to‑end delivery with a strong focus on outcomes, quality, and focus
• Take direct people responsibility for team members (coaching, feedback, development)
• Support and grow PMs in discovery skills, prioritization, and stakeholder management
• Act as a player–coach: owning product initiatives yourself while enabling others
• Foster a culture of learning, experimentation, and outcome ownership
• Align designers, engineers, and stakeholders around shared goals and priorities
• Act as a key product counterpart to engineering, design, and business leadership
• Ensure clarity and alignment across multiple product initiatives and teams

Your Background.

• Several years of experience in Product Management or adjacent roles
• Proven ability to lead products and people in a cross‑functional environment
• Strong user empathy and a solid track record of product discovery
• Outcome‑oriented mindset – you talk KPIs, not just features
• Technical fluency – you don’t code, but speak dev
• Confidence in decision‑making, prioritization, and trade‑offs
• Curiosity, initiative, and a strong bias for action

You are our perfect match if....

• You have experience with IoT products, mobile apps, or B2B SaaS
• You’ve worked with discovery techniques like fake doors, usability tests, or rapid prototyping
• You’ve led or mentored other team members before
• You’ve worked in empowered product teams with strong design & engineering partners
• A market‑leading product at the center of energy digitization
• A high‑caliber, supportive team that values initiative and clarity
• Flexible working hours and the option of hybrid working
• A dynamic, open team with flat hierarchies and short decision‑making processes
• Team culture & events – Regular team and company events for genuine team spirit
• Top catering – Barista bar, healthy snacks, daily meal allowance (€4), and monthly team dinners
• Excellent transport links – S-Bahn, U‑bahn, and bus right outside the door
