What you’ll be doing
- Form a clear point of view on what your product area needs to achieve this quarter and this year. Build a well-reasoned case for why and how to get there.
- Carry accountability for product outcomes, from what you’re building and why it’s the right investment to what you’ve shipped and how it’s performing.
- Build and measure iteratively. Ship in increments and use success metrics to decide what’s next.
- Use customer insights and market intelligence to form a point of view on where the credentialing market is headed, then pressure-test your roadmap against it.
- Collaborate relentlessly with other product managers, design, engineering, and go-to-market teams to ship new value quickly.
- Operate independently. Run your product area without regular guidance from leadership, and resolve blockers before they become escalations.
- Use AI-powered workflows to speed up validation and discovery.
- Raise the bar around you. Model strong product thinking, coach newer PMs, and give honest feedback to cross-functional partners when the work isn’t at the right level.
What success looks like in your first year
- The Digitary platform has measurably improved on the success metrics you and your engineering partners commit to (we’ll define these together).
- You’ve established a working rhythm with the R&D teams that lets you ship at pace despite the time difference.
- You’ve shipped at least one significant improvement to the Digitary platform that results in revenue, retention and/or engagement growth.
- You’ve built the customer relationships and market intelligence to credibly own this area’s strategy.
What you’ll need.
- Five or more years in a product role, ideally in B2B SaaS.
- Experience shipping products across multiple countries or regions, with an understanding of how regulatory and cultural differences shape product decisions.
- Demonstrated ownership of product outcomes, not just outputs.
- Strong judgment about when to move fast and when to slow down.
- Comfort building with AI in your day-to-day workflow.
- Comfort with product analytics tools like Pendo, Amplitude, or similar.
- Clear communication at all altitudes. You can communicate effectively with customers, peers, executives and explain a complex tradeoff in a paragraph.
- A bias toward action and comfort with ambiguity.
Nice to have
- Experience in edtech, credentialing, or an adjacent regulated space such as higher education, employment verification, or identity is a plus.
- Experience with university or higher education customers.
- Familiarity with credentialing standards such as Open Badges, W3C Verifiable Credentials, or CLR.
- Experience working with distributed engineering teams across multiple time zones.
