  • Synthesize insights across products to identify platform, integration, and scalability opportunities

  • Prioritize portfolio initiatives and product investments using data, customer insights, and scoring frameworks (RICE, WSJF, etc.)
  • Allocate investment across products to maximize business and customer value, not just individual feature success
  • Regularly review and adjust priorities based on performance, market feedback, and strategic shifts
  • Craft and present portfolio‑level business cases, outlining ROI, customer impact, and strategic alignment
  • Interface with Senior Leadership to report on portfolio health, risks, and performance

  • Monitor portfolio performance through Product‑level KPIs
  • Portfolio‑level health metrics (adoption, revenue mix, customer satisfaction, operational efficiency)
  • Identify systemic issues and improvement opportunities rather than isolated fixes
  • Act as the executive‑level “go‑to” for the product portfolio, its capabilities, and market positioning
  • Speak externally on behalf of the portfolio at customer on‑sites, industry events, and product webinars as needed
  • Partner with Marketing and Sales to articulate clear portfolio narratives and value propositions.

  • Deep understanding of Agile/Scrum and experience running teams across multiple workstreams
  • Strong product discovery, prioritization, and roadmap management skills
  • Excellence in product documentation and tooling (Jira, Confluence, Productboard, etc.)
  • Ability to evaluate products through a portfolio lens, including ROI, risk, customer value, and technical leverage
