Ready to architect the future of connected green energy? Dive into the heart of Europe's leading energy management platform and spearhead the next evolution of interoperability.

Own the product lifecycle: You own the end-to-end lifecycle of our connectivity products, from initial discovery and requirements gathering through to successful launch and continuous iteration. By deeply understanding market needs and the competitive landscape, you will define and champion the product strategy and roadmap. You identify and understand our customers' use cases, and proactively derive the required measures. You ensure the product's ongoing success and alignment with gridX's overarching business objectives.

Empowerment through Mentorship: You closely lead and develop a team of 2-3 product people through personalized coaching and mentorship, leveraging your deep product expertise to help them excel in complex product lifecycles and achieve ambitious goals, while fostering a culture of continuous learning and knowledge sharing within the product domain.

Lead by Example: You champion a results-oriented product culture by establishing a clear vision for our product connectivity topics, holding the team accountable for delivering value and actively guiding them towards successful outcomes, effectively collaborating across a 20-person cross-functional team (including Engineering, Marketing, Design, Sales). For your core team, you communicate transparent goals and metrics to drive product excellence and quantify its impact.

Drive Strategic Partnerships: Collaborate with our growth team to define and achieve the certification of (at least 10) new OEM partners within a 12-month timeframe, contributing to the expansion and strengthening of our product ecosystem.

Deliver Core Product Integrations: You take ownership of delivering key product integrations, further strengthening our product's capabilities.

Budget Ownership & Optimization: You take full ownership of the budget for all connectivity initiatives, driving efficient resource allocation, ensuring financial accountability and alignment with overall business objectives.

Define and track success metrics (e.g. integration uptime, time to market, partner satisfaction) and use data to make and inform roadmap decisions.
