We are looking for a Principal Product Manager (Module Lead) to own and scale one or more critical modules within the GreyMatter Multiagent Orchestration platform. This role is ideal for a deeply technical product leader who thrives in complex distributed systems environments. Rather than owning the entire platform strategy globally, you will take complete end-to-end ownership of specific high-impact modules, acting as the product authority for your module(s) while partnering closely with Engineering, Architecture, and Global Product leadership.
The core responsibilities for the job include the following:
Module Ownership:
- Define and execute the roadmap for assigned GreyMatter modules.
- Own feature prioritisation, technical trade-offs, and release planning.
- Ensure scalability, performance, and reliability at enterprise scale.
Technical Collaboration:
- Work hands-on with engineering and architecture teams on system design.
- Contribute to discussions on distributed systems, latency constraints, real-time orchestration, and optimisation logic.
- Ensure strong API-first, developer-friendly design principles.
AI and Optimisation Integration:
- Integrate AI/ML models into module workflows.
- Drive continuous improvement through data feedback loops.
- Partner with data science teams to productionise models in real-time environments.
Global Stakeholder Alignment:
- Work closely with US-based product and customer teams to align on roadmap priorities.
- Translate field deployment feedback into product enhancements.
- Support pre-sales conversations for module-specific deep dives when required.
Execution Leadership:
- Mentor and guide PMs or APMs within the module scope.
- Drive clarity in PRDs, success metrics, and release outcomes.
- Own module-level KPIs: performance, stability, adoption, and customer impact.
Requirements:
- 8+ years in product management or technical product roles.
- 5+ years working on platform, robotics, industrial AI, or deep-tech SaaS products.
- Experience owning complex distributed system modules.
- Deep Technical Product Leader: You likely began your career in engineering, robotics, systems, or optimisation before moving into product. You are comfortable diving into algorithm complexity, distributed system trade-offs, and system bottlenecks.
- Systems Thinker: You understand cloud-native architecture, real-time systems, and hardware-software integration. You can reason about scale, latency, and performance constraints.
- Strong Executor: You can break complex platform problems into modular roadmaps and deliver iteratively without compromising long-term architecture integrity.
- Cross-Functional Collaborator: You work effectively across time zones and influence stakeholders without direct authority.
Technical Expertise:
- Strong understanding of AI/ML workflows and real-time data systems.
- Experience with APIs, SDKs, and platform components.
- Exposure to optimisation algorithms, multi-agent systems, or swarm intelligence is a strong plus.
Leadership:
- Experience mentoring PMs or leading small product pods.
- Strong cross-functional execution experience.
