What You’ll Do
This leadership role helps drive platform vision and execution under the strategic direction of the Chief Product Officer. A critical leader to the growth of the company, the Product Manager leads a team of Product Owners to develop and execute on the strategy for a business domain within PCRS.

The position requires the ideal candidate to have SaaS platform software experience combined with strong knowledge of the business domain and the associated operational flows in customer environments. A successful candidate is comfortable taking a hands-on approach to problem-solving and is able to work collaboratively with other Product Managers and Engineering while primarily focused on enhancing the product value within their business domain. The Product Manager must articulate strategy and requirements in terms of value delivered to the customer, and will also establish projects that see product development all the way through to adoption in the PCMI customer base.

- Understand and protect the product customer base and associated revenue.
- Protect the existing revenue stream and customer base by ensuring all investment evolves customers forward and no customers are left on a software “island”.

- Develop a high performing team of product owners.
- Manage day to day priorities for their team.
