ABOUT THE ROLE
The Applications Team builds the products our customers run their entire businesses on - Order Management Inventory Procure-to-Pay Warehouse Management MRP and MES CRM and more. We own the end-to-end ideation scoping design build and release of these applications. We are building the most essential pieces of software that exist within our customers businesses and we are building to serve the worlds largest and most complex enterprises at scale. What we ship must deliver immediate impact to our customers and internal implementation team and allow us to massively expand our addressable market.
We are hiring a Product Lead to own each of our three product lines:
Core (OMS IMS P2P Master Data)
Physical (WMS MRP MES Demand Planning Freight)
Financial (Fin/Acc Bridge HRIS/HCM EPM)
Each of these product lines will contain the resources to drive end-to-end product management: design build and delivery. You will create the applications that thousands of customer instances configure against partner with our architects on the system design sequence the roadmap enforce release readiness and own the relationship with the implementation team that puts your product in front of customers.
The bar is high. We are looking for someone who has shipped real product surfaces and/or led product teams in the operations / ERP / finance / supply chain world and is ready to do it again.
WHAT YOULL DO
Own the end-to-end product surface for your pod - discovery PRDs system design partnership release readiness and adoption.
Lead the people within your pod through the entire design and delivery process and collectively own the post-delivery output metrics.
Run customer discovery directly and through the Implementation Team. Translate messy conflicting multi-customer input into generalized capabilities that work for the Nth customer not just the first.
Write tight opinionated PRDs that your engineers and architects can build against. Ship docs that hold up under technical pushback and dont need rewriting two months later.
Partner daily with the Applications Architects on system design schemas workflows and -design the product and the architecture. Hold the product line under technical pressure; update cleanly when a real constraint changes the right answer.
Sequence the application roadmap. Cut hard. Phase ruthlessly. Defend the trade-offs to the SLT to PMO and to customers.
Enforce release readiness and QA across your pod. Decide what ships and what holds.
Operate as the bridge between Applications and PMO - the team implementing your modules with live customers. Triage their feedback decide what generalizes vs. whats a config vs. whats a no and close the loop.
Contribute to the fused AOP (Applications OS Platform) roadmap with Product and Engineering. Brief Sales/GTM on whats shipping and when.
WHAT WERE LOOKING FOR
We are looking for a senior product builder with deep operations / ERP / financial-software domain fluency and the instinct to design product surfaces that thousands of live customer instances configure against. Strong target backgrounds:

Owned a product end-to-end at meaningful complexity. You can name a specific product you shipped the trade-offs you made the scope you cut the revenue or adoption it drove and what youd build differently today.
Designed for the Nth customer not the first. Youve held the line on whats opinionated vs. configurable and can articulate the rule you actually used.
Partnered substantively with engineering. Youve defended scope that shipped and updated PRDs that needed updating. You can name your favorite engineer and architect from your last team and tell us why.
Written for executives. You can sit with a pile of messy discovery notes and produce a one-page memo a CEO can act on in 60 seconds.
Led product teams to deliver on multi-quarter roadmaps with sustained ownership of output metrics.
