The Director of Product owns the clarity, coordination, and execution integrity of the Product organization. This is an execution-first role where you'll be hands-on with engineering on technically complex product decisions, leading a team that translates product direction into specifications, backlogs, roadmaps, and coordinated delivery. You will own the roadmap, prioritization, and the positioning engine (client) product direction, including indoor positioning. Success means ensuring what gets built matches market needs at the pace and scale the business requires.

Responsibilities

The Director of Product owns the clarity, coordination, and execution integrity of the Product organization.
This is an execution-first role, and you're joining at a great time to make an impact: our outdoor positioning product has real revenue momentum, and this role will shape what comes next. This isn't a process-only seat — you'll be hands-on with engineering on some of our most technically complex product decisions, not just relaying them. You will lead a team that translates product direction into clear specifications, structured backlogs, actionable roadmaps, and coordinated delivery — ensuring what gets built matches what the market needs, at the pace and scale the business requires.
Product definitions clearly reflect market and customer requirements before engineering begins work.
The backlog and roadmap are transparent, current, and understood across the company.
Engineering builds stay aligned to the intended market outcome, with tradeoffs surfaced early and managed intentionally.
The field, customers, and leadership have structured visibility into what is coming, what shipped, and what it does.
Delivery stays aligned to spec through release, with gaps caught early and the team held to a high bar.
Executives, the board, customers, and internal teams get regular, structured updates on roadmap progress and business impact.
Own the creation and maintenance of detailed Product requirements across the portfolio.
Lead structured interviews with stakeholders and customers to document what the product must accomplish from a market perspective.
Translate business and customer needs into clear functional requirements.
Maintain Product requirements as living documents throughout the lifecycle of each capability.
Update documentation as scope, sequencing, or functionality evolves.
Ensure scope is reviewed and approved prior to execution.
You own the roadmap: the prioritization calls, the operating cadence, and the visibility across the company.
Own and maintain a transparent, company-wide backlog.
Set prioritization criteria and make the final roadmap sequencing calls, in partnership with executive leadership.
Consolidate sizing inputs and own the resourced roadmap.
Lead roadmap review sessions with Product and Engineering leadership.
Update the roadmap quarterly to reflect actual progress and new priorities.
Clearly communicate changes when sequencing or delivery timing shifts.
Own the roadmap and support boundaries for the client/positioning-engine side of the product — one of the most technically complex, highest-upside parts of the portfolio, especially as we push into Indoor positioning.
Set a clear point of view on where the positioning engine/client product is headed, and what we will and won't support going forward.
Own this area end-to-end rather than as a side responsibility — it requires dedicated, hands-on attention to do well.
Identify and prioritize growth opportunities here, with Indoor positioning as a key near-term focus.
Free up executive/technical leadership time currently spent on this work by taking direct ownership of it.

Requirements

8+ years of experience in Product Management or Product Strategy, including experience leading a team.
Track record of owning product strategy and roadmap decisions for a SaaS, hardware-adjacent, or technical platform.
Strong technical acumen; engineering or technical background is a plus.
Preferably, experience with GNSS, robotics, autonomous systems, drones, industrial automation, or defense technologies.
Experience with cloud platforms, APIs, embedded systems, and real-time data systems.
Preferably, technical depth in GNSS/positioning fundamentals (e.g., signal processing, multipath, sensor fusion, satellite geometry) sufficient to personally dig into why a positioning solution is degraded, not just relay engineering's explanation.
Experience partnering directly with executive leadership and presenting to boards or investors.
Experience driving monetization, pricing, or portfolio strategy with measurable revenue impact.
Strong ability to structure ambiguity into clear strategy, documentation, and plans.
Experience working cross-functionally with Engineering, Sales, and Customer Success leadership.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Bias toward action, ownership, and continuous improvement.
