About Us

Modus Create is a digital consulting partner that helps ambitious organizations design, build, and modernize digital products, platforms, and AI-powered experiences. We work shoulder-to-shoulder with client teams to move from idea to production quickly and sustainably, with a clear path to scale.

Our teams bring product leadership, experience design, architecture, engineering, quality, and delivery expertise together in integrated pods. We partner close to the business, create clarity in complex environments, and focus on measurable outcomes, not just deliverables.

At Modus, Product Leadership exists to turn intent into outcomes. We create clarity in complexity, make tradeoffs explicit, guide teams toward measurable adoption and business impact, and help clients make better decisions as delivery moves forward.

Opportunity

We are seeking a highly experienced Senior Principal Product Manager to serve as a trusted partner and extension of the Product Lead. This individual must be capable of independently driving initiatives from strategy through execution, taking ownership of complex product decisions, and ensuring successful delivery across cross-functional teams.

The ideal candidate is a strong product leader with prior experience owning and managing products end-to-end in fast-paced enterprise environments. They should be technically proficient enough to effectively collaborate with engineering teams, challenge assumptions, and make informed prioritization decisions, while also possessing the leadership presence to provide firm direction and guidance to stakeholders and delivery teams.

• Partner closely with Product Leadership to drive strategic product initiatives
• Take full ownership of product planning, execution, delivery, and ongoing optimization
• Translate business requirements into actionable product roadmaps and priorities
• Lead cross-functional collaboration across engineering, design, business, and stakeholder teams
• Provide clear direction, accountability, and guidance to delivery teams
• Drive decision-making, remove blockers, and ensure alignment across workstreams
• Manage timelines, dependencies, risks, and stakeholder communication
• Balance technical considerations with business priorities and customer outcomes

Requirements

• Proven experience owning and managing enterprise products or platforms
• Strong product leadership and stakeholder management skills
• Ability to operate independently with minimal oversight
• Technical aptitude and experience working closely with engineering teams
• Strong communication, prioritization, and execution skills
• Experience leading large-scale or complex product initiatives preferred
• Ability to influence teams and drive accountability in matrixed organizations

Bonus Points

• Consulting experience or experience working directly with external clients.
• Experience supporting digital product builds, modernization efforts, enterprise platforms, or custom software delivery.
• Experience with Jira, Azure DevOps, Confluence, Miro, Figma, or similar product and delivery collaboration tools.
• Experience working with distributed teams across multiple time zones.
• Experience defining adoption metrics, leading indicators, release readiness criteria, or post-release feedback loops.
• Experience with process mapping, stakeholder mapping, decision logs, risk narratives, executive readouts, or delivery operating models.
• Experience helping a team move from broad or unclear requirements into a structured backlog tied to outcomes, features, epics, stories, and acceptance criteria.
• Experience improving delivery flow in environments with complex governance, handoffs, dependencies, or competing stakeholder priorities.
• Experience using AI-enabled tools to improve discovery, analysis, requirements clarity, documentation, delivery flow, or decision support.

You’ll Love This Role If:

• You like being the connective tissue across product, project, business analysis, delivery, and client leadership.
• You are comfortable leading through ambiguity without pretending everything is clear too early
• You are friendly and collaborative, but not passive.
• You are proactive without creating unnecessary noise.
• You can read the room, spot unspoken constraints, and adapt your communication style to move work forward.
• You enjoy creating structure, decision flow, and delivery rhythm in environments that need both discipline and tact.
• You believe strong requirements, clear tradeoffs, and steady delivery cadence are what allow teams to move faster with confidence.
• You care about adoption, usage, and business impact, not just shipped scope.

By joining our team, you’ll be part of a winning squad that plays to each other’s strengths and celebrates every success together.
