About You

You are a curious and commercially minded product professional with experience from an industrial or mechanical environment and a strong interest in digital solutions. You enjoy understanding customer challenges, translating them into practical product improvements, and working across technical and commercial teams to bring solutions to market. You do not need to be a specialist in SaaS or subscription business models; what matters is that you understand industrial customers and have experience or strong exposure to digital, connected or data‑driven products and services. You combine structured thinking with a hands‑on approach and are motivated by the opportunity to grow your product management capabilities in an international environment. You are comfortable engaging with customers, collaborating across functions and taking increasing responsibility as the digital services portfolio develops.
