Product Operations Lead

About the Role

We are seeking a Product Operations Lead to play a key role in product launches, planning processes, AI adoption and operational efficiency. This role will ensure product availability, process optimization, and KPI tracking, working cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Customer Success teams. The ideal candidate will drive seamless product delivery, scale best practices, and enhance the product management lifecycle.

Key Responsibilities
Product Launch & Go-to-Market Readiness

Drive cross-functional product launch planning, ensuring clear responsibilities and execution timelines.
Develop together with Product Marketing scalable launch playbooks to standardize and optimize the GTM process.
Track and measure launch success through key metrics such as adoption, usage, and retention.
Ensure internal teams are enabled with product documentation, updates, release notes and other enablement principles
Partner with Customer Success to optimize post-launch support and user experience.
Monitor product readiness and ensure alignment between Product, R&D, Support and GTM teams.

AI & Builder Approach

Work AI-first - use Claude and the connected stack (JIRA, Confluence, Vitally, Gong, Slack) as the default method for drafting, analysis, and synthesis, not an occasional shortcut.
Build the tooling you need. Ship lightweight internal tools - scripts, agents, digests, dashboards - that remove recurring manual work in release and launch operations, without waiting for an engineering roadmap slot.
Contribute to Product Brain, our internal AI knowledge layer, and design operational workflows that pull context from connected systems rather than reassembling it by hand each cycle.
Own AI adoption within Product Operations - find the manual work a system should be doing, prototype the replacement, and prove it works before asking anyone to adopt it.
Apply judgment on where automation belongs. Know which decisions, escalations, and communications need a human, and keep those human.

KPI Tracking & Operational Excellence

Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) to measure release and launch effectiveness.
Identify and implement process improvements to enhance speed and efficiency.
Leverage data insights to drive continuous optimization of product operations workflows.
Own and optimize tooling and dashboards to provide real-time visibility into product health.
Partner with R&D to streamline deployment workflows, product maintenance and incident response guidelines.

Qualifications & Experience
Required Skills & Experience

At least 7 years in Product Operations, Business Development or Product Lifecycle Management within a SaaS or technology-driven company.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
