This is not a single-product role.
You will own three distinct but connected product lines — and make sure they don’t just exist, but actually work together, scale, and win in the market.
•
API Platform (core business, high-impact, revenue-driving)
•
Mobility Platform (IITS) (government-led deployments + enterprise use cases)
•
Navigation Product (Google Maps-based solution)
You’ll sit right in the middle of tech, business, and market reality — translating vision into execution.
What You’ll Own
1. Product Strategy & Roadmap
• Define and drive the roadmap across all three product lines
• Prioritize features based on real market needs (not internal assumptions)
• Align product direction with business goals and revenue opportunities
2. Market & Domain Understanding
• Bring strong exposure to traffic monitoring / mobility / smart city ecosystems
• Track market trends, competitors, and regulatory shifts (especially in public sector ecosystems)
• Validate product-market fit continuously through real-world feedback
3. Execution & Cross-Functional Leadership
• Act as the bridge between engineering, business, and stakeholders
• Translate business requirements into clear product specs and tech requirements
• Work closely with engineering teams to ensure timely and scalable delivery
4. Stakeholder & Client Engagement
• Work with government entities, enterprise clients, and internal leadership
• Handle high-stakes conversations with clarity and confidence
• Ensure product direction aligns with client expectations and deployment realities
5. Documentation & Communication
• Own business-level documentation: PRDs, roadmaps, use cases, and proposals
• Communicate complex ideas in a simple, structured way
• Bring clarity when things get messy (because they will)
What We’re Looking For
• 6–10 years in Product Management / Product Leadership
• Strong experience in traffic monitoring, mobility tech, ITS, or smart city ecosystems
• Proven ability to manage multiple products simultaneously
• Experience working with APIs and platform-based products
• Strong understanding of government or enterprise deployments
• Excellent communication — both written and verbal
• Ability to move between strategy and execution without getting lost in either
• Comfortable working in ambiguity and building structure where none exists
What Will Set You Apart
• Experience with navigation systems / geospatial products / Google Maps integrations
• Exposure to public sector projects or smart city initiatives
• Strong commercial thinking — not just product, but business impact
