The Opportunity

OpenText Business Network is seeking a Principal Product Manager to drive delivery and continuous evolution of the Global E-Invoicing Framework (GF). This role focuses on translating regulatory and clients needs into product execution, strengthening scalable compliance patterns, and partnering closely with Development and cross-functional teams to deliver high-quality outcomes. The ideal candidate combines e-invoicing domain knowledge, strong product execution discipline, and excellent communication skills in a global, matrixed environment. The role also contributes to AI-enabled product and process improvements, aligned with OpenText’s AI-first direction.

What the role offers

• Own and drive execution for key components of the Global E-Invoicing Framework, including requirements definition, backlog management, and release readiness.

• Translate evolving regulatory mandates (e-invoicing and e-reporting) into clear epics, user stories, acceptance criteria, and testable requirements in partnership with Development and SMEs.

• Support country enablement planning (e.g., format requirements, validation rules, onboarding readiness), ensuring traceability from regulation → requirement → delivery → client readiness.

• Partner with Development to ensure quality, scalability, and reliability of GF capabilities; participate in design reviews and solution validation.

• Collaborate with Product Marketing, Sales, Professional Services, Support, and Customer Success to enable successful adoption, including documentation and field readiness materials.

• Act as a strong communicator and coordinator across distributed teams; drive alignment, manage dependencies, and support issue triage and prioritization.

• Contribute to KPI tracking and continuous improvement (adoption, quality signals, support trends) to inform prioritization and roadmap adjustments.

• Leverage AI tools to accelerate requirements analysis, documentation, and issue triage; identify opportunities to apply AI within validation, anomaly detection, and exception handling to improve customer outcomes.

What you need to succeed

• 5+ years of product management experience delivering enterprise software; experience in regulated domains strongly preferred.

• Demonstrated knowledge of e-invoicing and related compliance concepts (tax controls, invoice formats, country mandates, clearance models).

• Experience working with engineering teams on B2B integration, APIs (REST/SOAP), data validation, and high-reliability services is a plus.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills; ability to simplify complex regulatory topics for diverse audiences.

• Proven ability to work in a global, matrixed environment with cross-functional stakeholders (Engineering, GTM, Professional Services, Support).

• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and fast-changing regulatory environments; strong execution discipline and attention to detail.

• Interest in AI and practical experience using AI tools to increase productivity (analysis, documentation, workflow automation) preferred.

Core Competencies

• Product execution and backlog ownership.

• Regulatory requirements translation and traceability.

• Cross-functional stakeholder management.

• Structured communication and alignment.

• Analytical mindset and KPI-driven prioritization.

• AI-enabled productivity and continuous improvement.
