Description

Are you ready to help define a whole new way of exploring and interacting with the world through Visual intelligence? We are looking for a strong and ambitious Head of Product / Product Director to lead the journey to building a high-impact business with technology at its heart and soul. You will steer development of groundbreaking technology and products, drive cross-functional teams to delight our users, and make the world a bit better by motivating users to understand the world in a whole new way.

You will define and shape digital products from the very early stages, engaged with what our customers identify as important. You will set our product vision, defining our product roadmap in close collaboration with our CEO and CTO, ensuring we deliver a great market fit.

A good understanding of the built environment is essential as is a general knowledge of BIM, immersive tech, scanning, geospatial computing or computer vision – we are turning the industry on its head but a basis in any of the above is a good start.

This role will oversee the whole product development lifecycle from sales ‘concept’ to closed deal. This role intersects all phases, from conceptualisation to prototyping, product delivery, ongoing support and after sale engagement.

  • Define the key features, specifications and requirements of the product, based on customer preference
  • Capture product requirements, prioritise requests, establish goals, and drive the feature development process
  • Define and analyse metrics that inform fast iteration and ultimately the success of the customer experience and the overall platform
  • Work as a horizontal leader to foster collaboration between engineering, design, marketing, legal, and business development teams
  • Communicate product status, key issues, and launch plans to key constituents across the organisation, including the executive team
  • Empathise with our developers to identify areas to improve their experience
  • Stay current with the technology stack and research in computer vision, deep learning, distributed systems, networking, graphics, 3D mapping, and immersive technologies
  • Establishing strategies for product pricing and positioning
  • Assisting with product launches and marketing campaigns
  • Conducting market research to learn more about customer needs
  • Performing profit analysis and forecasting to develop product launch and support strategies
  • Creating, running and owning project timeline implementation schedules and deliverables
  • Identifying and working with BD to approach potential distributors, partners or acquisitions.
