The ability to understand and communicate effectively with developers, IT teams, and enterprise architects is key to this position, as it enables confident decision‑making. You will be a strategic partner to Customer Success Managers and work cross‑functionally with Implementation Consultants and Technical Consultants—who each play key roles in the customer relationship—to ensure alignment and transparency on product‑related priorities.

• Represent customer needs in internal product planning sessions and provide visibility into evolving customer trends and high‑impact use cases
• Lead internal coordination efforts across Product, Engineering, and Customer teams to resolve blockers and elevate critical items
• Participate in strategic customer calls and roadmap reviews to provide updates, set expectations, and represent Product status and direction
• Continually improve processes and tooling that support intake, prioritization, and communication of customer product needs

What you’ll need to be successful

• 5+ years of experience in project management, technical account management, or product operations within a SaaS or software company
• Proven ability to work collaboratively across customer‑facing and technical teams, including Product, Engineering, and Customer Success
• Strong technical understanding of SaaS platforms, integrations, APIs, and enterprise deployment workflows
• Excellent communication, organization, and stakeholder management skills
• Experience with tools such as Jira, Confluence, Salesforce, and Gainsight
• Comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving structure in fast‑paced, cross‑functional environments
• PMP, Scrum, or Agile certifications are a plus
