Some product roles are about keeping things running. This one is about deciding where the business goes next. As Principal Product Manager, you'll take on the problems that are too big, too cross-cutting, or too strategically important to hand to anyone else — and you'll own them from the first insight to the business impact they create. If you're energized by setting strategy that the whole company lines up behind, and you understand the importance of outcomes, this is built for you.

As a Principal Product Manager (PPM), you'll own the mission-critical product areas that move the business — the problems that shape where the company goes next. This is an individual-contributor role for someone who wants to set long-term strategy, drive it across multiple teams through influence rather than authority, and be measured on the outcomes that matter most to the company.

You'll operate as a product thought leader and a trusted partner to Engineering, Design, Architecture, GTM, and Executive Leadership — translating strategy into differentiated customer and business outcomes that the whole company can rally behind.

 

Key Responsibilities

Product Strategy & Vision 

 

  • Own the end-to-end strategy for a major product, platform capability, or customer problem space — and the business results it drives.

  • Balance customer needs, business outcomes, and technical feasibility in all decisions.
  • Act as a subject‑matter expert for the product area internally and externally.

  • Turn qualitative and quantitative insight into the high-impact opportunities that grow the business.
  • Translate customer and market insights into clear product direction and prioritization.
  • Represent the voice of the customer in executive and cross‑functional forums.

Execution & Delivery 

 

  • Lead complex, cross-team initiatives from discovery through delivery and adoption — owning the outcome, not just the launch.
  • Partner with Engineering and Architecture on technical strategy and trade‑offs.
  • Write high‑level product requirements, narratives, and decision documents.
  • Ensure delivered outcomes meet customer, quality, and scalability expectations.

Influence & Collaboration 

 

  • Lead through influence across Product, Engineering, Design, Marketing, Sales, Support, and Services.
  • Drive alignment on priorities, dependencies, and sequencing across teams.
  • Provide input into planning, investment decisions, and executive communication.

  • Continuously assess results and adapt strategy based on learnings.
  • Own decisions and outcomes for the product area.

  • Demonstrated ability to lead without formal authority.
  • Strong analytical skills and data‑informed decision making.

 

Preferred

 

  • Experience in SaaS, cloud platforms, or enterprise software.

  • Clear, durable product strategy adopted across teams.

  • Successful delivery of complex, multi‑team initiatives.
  • Increased product maturity, scalability, and customer value.
