• Strong background in B2B SaaS products such as maintenance / field operations / EAM or similar enterprise workflows.​
• Proven track record of managing end‑to‑end product lifecycle and shipping impactful features in close partnership with engineering, design, and business stakeholders.​
• Experience leading high‑performing teams and influencing cross‑functional stakeholders without authority.​
• Comfort with data, experimentation, and using analytics to drive prioritization and roadmap decisions.​
• Excellent communication, storytelling, and stakeholder‑management skills, including customer‑facing product demonstrations.​
• MBA or equivalent business education from a reputed institute is a plus.​
• Exposure to GTM, proposals, SOWs, and commercial aspects of product deals is an added advantage.​

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in maintenance / frontline operations / asset‑heavy industries or related SaaS platforms.​
• Comfort with analytical tools (Sheets, BI / dashboard tools, basic SQL or equivalent) to analyze product usage and performance.

What We Offer:

• A positive, open, and highly-innovative environment and team
• Entrepreneurial spirit with unlimited opportunity to grow
