As a key member of the Platform Product Management team, the Software Product Manager owns assigned software products and platform capabilities from problem discovery and business-case development through delivery, launch, adoption, optimization, and retirement.

• Translate validated customer problems and strategic opportunities into outcome-based roadmaps, product requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, release goals, and prioritized backlogs.

• Run experiments and post-launch reviews, using customer feedback and product data to determine whether to iterate, scale, reposition, or discontinue investments.
• Own the full software product lifecycle, including release planning, launch readiness, adoption, maintenance, migrations, deprecation, end-of-life planning, and customer communications.
• Partner with Engineering, R&D, Portfolio Owners, Quality Assurance, Security, Privacy, and Regulatory teams to incorporate scalability, reliability, interoperability, data governance, compliance, accessibility, supportability, and technical debt into product decisions.
• Guide platform, API, integration, data, and entitlement decisions to support cohesive customer workflows and sustainable product architecture.
• Develop business cases and contribute to pricing, packaging, forecasting, investment planning, and build-buy-partner recommendations.
• Lead go-to-market and release-readiness planning with Marketing, Sales, Customer Success, Support, Training, and regional teams.
• Support positioning, enablement, documentation, migration, and adoption planning for new and existing software capabilities.
• Provide concise, decision-oriented updates regarding outcomes, roadmap changes, dependencies, risks, assumptions, and tradeoffs to customers, delivery teams, stakeholders, and senior leaders.
• Promote modern product management practices, responsible and ethical use of data and AI where applicable, and a culture of customer empathy, accountability, learning, and continuous improvement.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

• Experience developing product requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, release goals, and prioritized product backlogs.
• Experience working with cross-functional Engineering, Design, Quality, Security, Data, Commercial, Customer Success, and Support teams.
• Ability to define and track product KPIs and use data to evaluate customer behavior and product performance.
• Technical understanding of modern software concepts including cloud services, APIs, integrations, data models, identity and access management, observability, release pipelines, and architectural tradeoffs.
• Strong written, verbal, presentation, facilitation, and stakeholder communication skills.
• Ability to influence without direct authority and create alignment across cross-functional and distributed teams.
• Ability to navigate ambiguity and manage competing priorities.
• Proficiency with Microsoft 365 and product collaboration tools such as Azure DevOps, Jira, Confluence, Figma, Miro, Power BI, or comparable platforms.
• Schedule flexibility to collaborate with international teams across multiple time zones.
Preferred Qualifications
• Experience with B2B software products, regulated industries, laboratory workflows, food safety, connected instruments, or global products.
