Partner with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Sales to eliminate friction in cross-functional execution, from roadmap to release to revenue.
Lead and operationalize product launches end-to-end, coordinating dependencies, timelines, and stakeholder readiness across teams.
Identify and close gaps in product lifecycle management, including updates, deprecations, and end-of-life processes.
Build and maintain a single source of truth for product operations documentation, process standards, and best practices.
Surface and manage risks in product development and launch cycles before they become blockers.
Identify and drive adoption of AI tools across the SDLC, from requirements generation and sprint planning to testing, release documentation, and post-launch analysis, measuring impact on velocity and quality over time.

Requirements

5+ years of experience in Product Operations, Product Management, or a directly adjacent operations role within a SaaS or tech company.
Demonstrated ability to build and scale cross-functional processes that improved execution speed or quality, with specific, measurable outcomes.
Strong analytical skills and hands-on experience with product and business metrics; you can move from raw data to a decision-driving insight independently.
Proven experience managing complex, multi-team product launches.
Hands-on fluency with AI tools in daily work, using AI to accelerate requirements writing, competitive research, sprint documentation, data analysis, and stakeholder communications, with a track record of measurably improving product velocity or team output.
Familiarity with Agile or similar iterative development methodologies.
Clear, direct communicator who can operate at the individual contributor level and in the executive boardroom.
This role has direct exposure to product leadership and the executive team from day one, requiring the presence, preparation, and judgment to operate credibly at that level immediately.
