• 10+ years of product management experience, ideally in platform, infrastructure, or AI/ML-related domains.


• Demonstrated success leading cross-functional product initiatives from concept to scale in complex, fast-paced environments.


• Deep understanding of enterprise software, technical platforms, and how internal users interact with systems.


• Strong understanding of AI/ML technologies — including GenAI, NLP, LLMs, or intelligent automation tools — and translating technical capabilities into business outcomes.


• Ability to collaborate deeply with engineers, influence architectural decisions, and contribute to product-level technical strategy.


• Exceptional communication, stakeholder management, and storytelling skills.


• A strategic mindset, systems thinking, and a bias toward action and iteration.
