You’ll collaborate with software engineers, our UX/UI designer, and the data team, while your scope grows as new products emerge and spin-offs form.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of product management experience, ideally on internal tools, enterprise software, or B2B platforms.
• A track record of taking ownership of an existing product and improving it in measurable ways.
• Strong prioritization judgment and the confidence to say no, with a clear rationale behind it.
• Experience writing requirements and acceptance criteria that software engineers/developers find clear and actionable
• A data-driven mindset and experience working with analysts or data teams to define metrics, frame the right questions, and turn findings into product decisions
• Enough technical fluency to discuss architecture, constraints, and trade-offs credibly with software engineers/developers
• Excellent written and verbal communication, from sprint-level detail with the team to high-level updates for leadership

• Serve as product owner for an established internal platform, quickly building a working knowledge of its users, history, and technical landscape so you can guide its next stage
• Contribute to OBM’s long-term product vision while owning the near-term roadmap and the decisions that move it forward
• Uncover customer and business needs through user conversations, stakeholder input, and insights from the data team
• Prioritize the backlog with clear, well-reasoned trade-offs about what to build now, what to defer, and what not to build at all
• Write clear requirements and acceptance criteria, keep them stable once work begins, and share accountability with software engineers/developers for delivering against them
• Partner with the UX/UI Designer to turn business needs into validated concepts before development starts
• Partner with the data team to define success metrics, instrument new features, and analyze results after launch, so roadmap decisions rest on evidence rather than assumptions
• Adjust plans quickly when business priorities change, working with software engineers/developers to re-plan and keeping stakeholders informed along the way
• Communicate product direction, progress, and decisions across the organization in a way that builds trust and alignment
• Spot opportunities for new products and extensions, and help evaluate which ones are worth pursuing
