Full description
As our Lead Product Manager for Charting, you'll own the transformation of our chart production pipeline: modernizing a legacy system with an updated automated charting tool. This role will look to create efficiencies for the current user, and also unlock new products from ideation to production. This is a net-new role as we scale the charting organization and take on one of its most consequential transformations.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own the transformation from our legacy chart production system to a modern, automated charting tool, directly doubling productivity for the ~150 users of the pipeline
- Lead customer discovery with charting users to identify real bottlenecks and prioritize the roadmap around them, not assumed ones
- Identify and scope new product opportunities the new tooling unlocks
- Partner with engineering across the globe to sequence and de-risk the migration
- Mentor other product managers as the team scales, raising the bar for product craft across the group
- Apply hands-on AI experience to find where AI genuinely improves the charting workflow, grounded in what you've built rather than trend-chasing
Basic Qualifications:
- 8+ years of product management experience, including leading a major platform or system migration end to end
- Demonstrated, hands-on experience building with AI as reflected by being able to speak concretely about what you built and how, not just that you used it
- Proven customer discovery skills; ability to identify a customer's actual problem, not just their stated request
- Experience partnering with distributed, global engineering teams
Preferred Qualifications:
- Aviation background, particularly as a pilot who has used Jeppesen charts (strongly preferred)
- Experience at an airline or in the military, particularly with a technology background
