Technical Product Manager

About the company

Our client is a fast-growing technology company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Take ownership of a core internal platform area, guiding it from early experiments through to a dependable production system. The work blends hands-on prototyping with product direction, in close partnership with operations, engineering and research colleagues.

What you'll do

• Define the strategy and roadmap for your product area, from early prototypes to production systems running at scale.
• Create first versions yourself with queries, scripts, dashboards and simple prototypes, then hand off to engineering to scale.
• Convert emerging customer needs into clear workflows, requirements and project plans.
• Partner with operations, engineering and research teams to carry new systems from concept to launch.
• Rely on data to make decisions and monitor throughput, quality and cost.

Requirements

What we're looking for

• Roughly 2 to 8 years in product management, technical program management, entrepreneurship, customer-facing engineering or a technical operations role.
• A blend of technical and operational experience; a career in only product management or only software engineering is not the right match.
• A bachelor's degree in computer science or a related technical discipline.
• Strong SQL skills and comfort delivering a working early-stage version of a tool without help.
• A history of creating your own internal tooling to tame complex operational workflows, whether at a startup, a consultancy or an operations team.
• Recent experience at a high-growth startup or a leading technology company.
• Solid product instincts and an easy working relationship with engineers and researchers.
• Willingness to work on-site in one of the two listed metropolitan areas; relocation support is not offered.
