Job description

Job Description – Product Manager, Platform & Enterprise Systems

Position: Senior Product Manager – Platform & Enterprise Systems

Experience: 7+ Years

Location: Gurgaon

Function: Product & Technology

Employment Type: Full-time

About the Role

We are hiring a Senior Product Manager to own and elevate one of the most operationally critical parts of our product ecosystem: the systems and workflows that power everything. This is a high-trust, high-visibility role — the individual in this seat will become the primary product decision-maker for a wide surface area spanning Sales, Business, and cross-functional stakeholder needs, working in close partnership with our Global Business Head.

This is a rare opportunity to combine deep technical ownership with real strategic influence. You'll be entrusted with day-to-day prioritization judgment on behalf of senior leadership, giving you outsized decision-making scope relative to a typical PM role at this level. You'll also have a mandate to bring modern, AI-driven thinking into a substantial, complex product area — identifying opportunities for automation and efficiency that haven't been explored before.

This role suits a Product person who thrives on complexity and ownership, enjoys being the person stakeholders trust with hard calls, and is energized by solving deep, structurally complex problems.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the primary product owner for a broad portfolio of enterprise and operational systems.
• Partner closely with the Global Business Head to translate business priorities into a clear, well-sequenced roadmap, exercising independent day-to-day judgment on what matters most.
• Convert competing, ambiguous requirements from multiple stakeholders into a coherent, defensible plan.
• Make and communicate difficult trade-off decisions with clarity and confidence.

2. Technical & Systems Depth

• Build a genuinely deep, hands-on command of the underlying systems and codebase — going well beyond requirements-gathering into real technical fluency.
• Own product quality end-to-end: understand technical risk, architectural constraints, and the true cost of new requests.
• Partner closely with engineering to balance system integrity with business velocity.
• Bring a first-principles, AI-native lens to a large and complex product area, proactively identifying where automation, AI, and modern tooling can unlock efficiency or new capability.
• Champion new approaches independently, without waiting for a formal mandate to innovate.

4. Senior Stakeholder Management

• Operate as a sharp, credible partner to senior stakeholders across Sales, Business, and Technology.
• Influence effectively at the senior level — building trust and alignment even when delivering difficult or unpopular decisions.
• Communicate priorities, trade-offs, and rationale in a way that earns confidence from leadership.
• Operate effectively and consistently in a complex, matrixed environment with many stakeholders and long-running technical complexity.
• Maintain strong engagement, energy, and standards over sustained periods, including in phases that are less visible or less immediately rewarding.
• Build productive, effective working relationships across a wide range of engineering and business collaborators.

Required Experience & Skills

• 7+ years in Product Management, with substantial experience owning complex, technically deep, or platform-style product areas.
• Demonstrated ability to go deep technically — genuinely comfortable partnering with engineering on architecture and system trade-offs, not just at the roadmap layer.
• Proven track record of prioritization and decision-making under real, competing pressure, with the ability to speak to specific examples.
• Strong, demonstrable fluency in applying AI/automation to solve business problems independently.
• Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, particularly with senior and cross-functional audiences.
• A track record of sustained, high-quality delivery in complex or ambiguous environments over an extended period.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving capability; comfortable operating in ambiguity.
• Travel industry experience (B2B travel, travel marketplaces, booking platforms, distribution, hospitality, or travel technology) preferred, not required.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who:

• Is energized by scope and ownership, and comfortable being the person a wide range of stakeholders rely on for judgment calls.
• Treats complex, technically deep systems as a craft to master.
• Brings AI-native thinking as a default instinct.
• Is diplomatic and sharp at once — able to build trust with senior stakeholders while still holding a clear point of view.
• Has the temperament and consistency to perform at a high level over the long run.

Priority Criteria

• 1. Deep technical and systems fluency — genuine, hands-on command of the product's technical foundation.
• 2. Strong, credible influence with senior stakeholders — able to align and hold a position at the leadership level.
• 3. Sustained high performance in complex environments — consistent delivery and engagement over time, not just in short sprints.
• Strong AI/automation fluency and sharp day-to-day prioritization judgment are highly valued and heavily weighted in selection, alongside the above.

Success in This Role

Success will be measured by the ability to:

Become the trusted product decision-maker for this portfolio → Elevate system quality and technical health → Introduce AI-led efficiencies not previously explored → Maintain strong prioritization discipline amid competing demands → Sustain this level of performance and engagement over time.
