Senior Product Manager

Trapeze Group

About The Position

As Senior Product Manager for our Driver and Rider applications, you will take full, end-to-end ownership of product strategy and execution for both the mobile and web experiences used by drivers and riders on our Mobility on Demand platform. This is a true full-cycle ownership role: You'll run and attend lightweight, pragmatic ceremonies suited to a small, high-trust team, not a heavy, formal process, in close partnership with Engineering, along with vision and strategy development for your product area. This is a hands-on, high-autonomy role suited to someone who wants to run their product area like a business: talking directly to customers, making sharp prioritization calls, and using modern tools, including AI, to move faster without sacrificing quality.

Requirements

5+ years of experience in a B2B product management role for a technology company.
Proven experience owning both mobile and web application products (any platform: native, hybrid, or cross-platform experience all considered).
Strong track record of full-cycle agile ownership, comfortable operating as both product owner and de facto scrum master, including story writing, acceptance criteria, ceremony facilitation, and unblocking your own team.
Hands-on experience applying structured prioritization frameworks (e.g., RICE, MoSCoW, weighted scoring).
Practical, hands-on experience using AI tools in product work, both for prototyping/mockups and for day-to-day PM workflow.
Customer interview and discovery experience strongly preferred; we will invest in developing this skill for an otherwise exceptional candidate.
Excellent business acumen and a proven ability to build strong relationships with customers and cross-functional stakeholders.
Comfortable presenting to influencers, senior executives, and industry audiences.
Experience with Agile/Scrum delivery methodology.
Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience.

Nice To Haves

Transit, transportation, or mobility industry experience is a plus, but not required.

Responsibilities

Own end-to-end product strategy and roadmap for the Driver and Rider applications (mobile and web).
Own the full backlog: writing and refining user stories with clear acceptance criteria, setting sprint goals, defining Definition of Done, and making real-time scope trade-off calls as priorities shift.
Facilitate or attend lightweight, pragmatic agile ceremonies for your team, including standups, sprint planning, reviews, and retros, sized for a small, high-trust team rather than a heavy formal process.
Conduct customer interviews and discovery to identify market opportunities and validate solutions; strong candidates without this experience will be supported in developing it.
Use AI tools both to accelerate your own workflow (specs, synthesis, research, documentation) and for rapid prototyping and mockups (e.g., Claude Design, Figma AI, or similar).
Partner closely with Engineering leadership to rebuild delivery trust and produce visible, credible progress on the modernization effort.
Work closely with UX/Design throughout discovery and delivery, ensuring product decisions are grounded in solid user research and design rigor rather than made in isolation.
Apply structured prioritization frameworks (e.g., RICE, weighted scoring, cost of delay) to make roadmap and backlog decisions transparent and defensible to stakeholders.
Balance long-term technical investment against short-term delivery needs, including build vs. buy vs. partner decisions.
Identify, track, and actively manage technical debt within your product area.
Define and monitor quality and performance metrics; use them to drive continuous improvement.
Deliver clear, compelling updates and presentations to stakeholders at all levels, including executive leadership.
Support go-to-market activities for your product area, including positioning, launch planning, and enablement content, in partnership with Product Marketing and Sales.
Act as product evangelist for the Driver and Rider apps, internally and with customers.
