About The Position

As a Senior Product Manager at Impulse Space, you will lead the strategy and execution of our internal enterprise software ecosystem.

Experience managing complex stakeholder relationships and prioritize competing requests in a resource-constrained environment.
Experience leading "Build vs. Buy" evaluations for critical business systems.
Experience with Data Warehousing and BI tools (e.g., Snowflake, Tableau, Looker, PowerBI) and the ability to write SQL for ad-hoc analysis.
Hands-on experience with modern ERP or MES platforms (e.g., Odoo, NetSuite, SAP, Plex, Solumina).

Responsibilities

Product Strategy & Roadmapping: Define and maintain a high-level strategic roadmap for enterprise applications (ERP, WMS, MES), balancing immediate operational needs with long-term scalability.
Stakeholder Partnership: Embed yourself with Manufacturing, Supply Chain, and Finance leadership to understand their friction points and translate them into actionable software requirements.
Lifecycle Management: Own the full product lifecycle for internal tools—from problem discovery and solution design (Build vs. Buy) to launch, user training, and post-deployment support.
Requirements Definition: Translate complex manufacturing workflows into clear user stories, technical specifications, and acceptance criteria for engineering and integration teams.
Data-Driven Decisions: Leverage data warehousing and reporting tools to track key system metrics, identifying bottlenecks in the supply chain or production process that can be solved through software.
User Advocacy: Champion the end-user experience, ensuring that shop-floor technicians and procurement agents have intuitive, high-performance tools that accelerate their workflows.
