  • Oversee the product strategy for both the MyGeotab web platform and the Geotab Drive mobile app ensuring a consistent level of quality performance and brand alignment across all user touchpoints.

  • Partner with Engineering Directors to drive the migration to modern frontend frameworks (e.g. React) and champion the adoption of the internal Design System.

  • Act as the voice of the user in executive forums balancing the technical needs of the platform with the commercial requirements of vertical solutions (Safety Sustainability).

What youll bring to the role:

  • 10-12 years in product management with a specific focus on SaaS applications and User Experience.
