Requirements

  • Five to seven years in software product development, with at least two years specifically building workflow software
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
  • Ability to balance requirements across engineering, design, data, and business stakeholders
  • Comfortable working with internal and external stakeholders, across a wide range of technical comfort
  • Demonstrated success decomposing a problem into addressable component parts and arranging the correct sequencing
  • Proven ability to “see around corners” by crafting product strategy for 6-12 months into the future
  • Comfort in maturing a product from MVP to enterprise-grade production
  • Must be able to travel up to 25% of the time
  • U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data

Nice To Haves

  • Manufacturing domain familiarity through industry or education
  • Experience with UI / UX web design tools (e.g. Figma)

Responsibilities

  • Developing the roadmap for Forge’s manufacturing domain
  • Managing stakeholders’ requirements (Manufacturing, Hardware Product Management, Quality, Logistics, etc.) and synthesizing them into a prioritized backlog
  • Communicating across stakeholders and interested parties on Forge’s development and roadmap
  • Integrating Forge with surrounding business applications and ensuring total compatibility with data models across systems
  • Discovering and incorporating new technologies that enhance Forge’s operational leverage
  • Driving adoption and enablement of Forge across operations and business teams
  • Aligning Forge’s roadmap against targeted business outcomes
  • Monitoring and tracking user adoption and product performance to understand if business outcomes are indeed successful
  • You can “see around the corner'” for your product, crafting the vision, high-level roadmap, and critical dependencies for 6-12 months into the future. You constantly engage with stakeholders to solicit input and buy-in, proactively communicating product goals and managing expectations for delivery. You escalate large trade offs and necessary decision points as needed. You work effectively with many internal teams to synthesize their needs, but are never afraid to make important decisions as the owner of your product.
  • You work backward from your strategy to set clear outcomes for your portfolio in partnership with your engineering, design, and business partners. You will support team structures that allow prioritization of competing work within rapid development cycles. You consistently let your team flex to adapt goals when needed, based on new information.
  • You become attached to problems, not solutions. To do this, you will seek out real-world context in the form of onsite user research, internal expert feedback, existing product data, and industry tech investigation. You will capture core workflows and translate these user needs into well-scoped requirements and success hypotheses.
  • From design to delivery, you fill gaps wherever needed to make your well-scoped solutions a reality. You proactively communicate with internal team members and external stakeholders, approach solutions with humility and creativity in order to hit milestones, and set a high bar for the product that you own.
