Staff Platform Product Manager, Movement

project44 • Chicago, IL

20h • Hybrid

About The Position

project44 is redefining how global supply chains operate with its Decision Intelligence Platform, Movement. This platform is the foundation for all project44 products, including visibility, analytics, AI agents, and various modules. The company is seeking a Senior Platform Product Manager to own both the technical platform capabilities of Movement (identity and access, Collaborative Visibility, Search) and the user experience built upon them. This role is crucial for ensuring Movement functions as a coherent product, providing the experience layer, analytics, and security guarantees required by enterprise customers. The position involves deep technical partnership with Engineering and close collaboration with Product Design, sitting at the intersection of Product, Design, Engineering, and Security.

Requirements

• 6+ years of product management experience, with meaningful time owning platform, identity/access, or infrastructure-adjacent surfaces.
• Working knowledge of IAM concepts (roles, permissions, tenancy, authorization) deep enough to have real trade-off conversations with engineering.
• Range across both technical platform work and user experience.
• Credible with engineering on data models, APIs, and search performance.
• A real partner to Design on UX vision and prototypes.
• A track record of shipping analytics or reporting products, ideally including vendor or build-vs-buy decisions for embedded BI.
• Experience designing for multiple personas within one product, with the configurability-vs-complexity trade-off made explicit rather than assumed.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity.
• Clear, direct writing — PRDs and briefs a busy exec can read in five minutes and act on.
• Enterprise B2B SaaS experience.
• Supply chain, logistics, or another data-intensive vertical platform is a strong plus.

Nice To Haves

• Experience integrating an acquired company's users and data onto a unified platform and permissions model.
• Familiarity with freight/logistics security requirements (cargo visibility restrictions, data-sharing constraints) or equivalent regulated-data experience.
• Experience evaluating or migrating embedded analytics/BI vendors.

Responsibilities

• Own the product vision for how Movement's core experience evolves, including the Overview dashboard, navigation, and shared UI patterns.
• Partner directly with Product Design on UX vision and prototypes, translating design principles into a sequenced, buildable roadmap.
• Arbitrate platform-level UX trade-offs across pillar teams to ensure Movement's consistency.
• Own the web, responsive, and mobile app strategy for Movement.
• Own the roadmap for Movement's IAM layer, including tenant and user permissioning, Access Groups, role definitions, and the unified authorization model.
• Define and prioritize new permission models in partnership with Engineering and Security.
• Be the product point of contact for IAM scoping on new acquisitions and partner integrations.
• Own the product roadmap for Collaborative Visibility, defining how data is shared across tenant boundaries.
• Own Search as a platform capability, ensuring a consistent and performant way to find information across all modules.
• Work directly with platform engineering on technical trade-offs for shared platform capabilities.
• Take Movement from a one-size-fits-all Overview to persona-aware experiences for operators/planners, managers, and executives.
• Define what is configurable versus persona-default and how personalization scales.
• Own the platform-level strategy for analytics embedded in Movement, including shared infrastructure and experience layer.
• Lead build-vs-buy and vendor decisions for embedded analytics/BI.
• Define self-service and platform-value reporting.
• Own security and data-exposure requirements across Movement's UI and APIs.
• Partner with Security/Privacy and Engineering to translate customer security requirements into product requirements.
• Represent Product in compliance-adjacent conversations where platform behavior is in scope.
• Act as the accountable owner for platform-level Movement questions from Sales, CX, Support, and Engineering.
• Represent Platform in quarterly planning, RICE-based prioritization, and roadmap reviews.
• Write clear PRDs, product briefs, and decision documents.

Benefits

• Stock options for all EOR and project44-employed team members.
• Bonus or commission eligibility depending on role.
• Benefits package tailored to country of employment.
• Specific benefits package offerings vary by country and may include health, dental, and vision coverage, retirement plans, and paid time off, in line with local market standards and statutory programs.
