Commitment: Full-time

Workplace Type: hybrid

About the Role

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.
