About The Position

We’re looking for an experienced Director of Product Management to lead the strategy, vision, and execution for the foundational platform that powers all SugarCRM products.

• Track record of delivering cross-product initiatives such as unified UX, analytics, or data frameworks.
• Strong technical acumen and ability to engage deeply with Engineering and Architecture.
