Product Lead - Mobility & API Platforms

This is not a single-product role. You will own three distinct but connected product lines — and make sure they don’t just exist, but actually work together, scale, and win in the market. - API Platform (core business, high-impact, revenue-driving) - Mobility Platform (IITS) (government-led deployments + enterprise use cases) - Navigation Product (Google Maps-based solution) You’ll sit right in the middle of tech, business, and market reality — translating vision into execution. What You’ll Own 1. Product Strategy & Roadmap - Define and drive the roadmap across all three product lines - Prioritize features based on real market needs (not internal assumptions) - Align product direction with business goals and revenue opportunities 2. Market & Domain Understanding - Bring strong exposure to traffic monitoring / mobility / smart city ecosystems - Track market trends, competitors, and regulatory shifts (especially in public sector ecosystems) - Validate product-market fit continuously through real-world feedback 3. Execution & Cross-Functional Leadership - Act as the bridge between engineering, business, and stakeholders - Translate business requirements into clear product specs and tech requirements - Work closely with engineering teams to ensure timely and scalable delivery 4. Stakeholder & Client Engagement - Work with government entities, enterprise clients, and internal leadership - Handle high-stakes conversations with clarity and confidence - Ensure product direction aligns with client expectations and deployment realities 5. Documentation & Communication - Own business-level documentation: PRDs, roadmaps, use cases, and proposals - Communicate complex ideas in a simple, structured way - Bring clarity when things get messy (because they will) What We’re Looking For - 6–10 years in Product Management / Product Leadership - Strong experience in traffic monitoring, mobility tech, ITS, or smart city ecosystems - Proven ability to manage multiple products simultaneously - Experience working with APIs and platform-based products - Strong understanding of government or enterprise deployments - Excellent communication — both written and verbal - Ability to move between strategy and execution without getting lost in either - Comfortable working in ambiguity and building structure where none exists What Will Set You Apart - Experience with navigation systems / geospatial products / Google Maps integrations - Exposure to public sector projects or smart city initiatives - Strong commercial thinking — not just product, but business impact Originally posted on Himalayas
