What you will do:

• Own strategy, positioning, roadmap, business case and lifecycle decisions, balancing operator value, differentiation, revenue and cost. 

• Discover operator needs, market shifts and competitive gaps, and turn them into prioritized requirements and releases with clear acceptance criteria. 

• Spot value in AI/ML, agentic AI, automation, cloud-native RAN, energy innovation and 5G-Advanced/6G, and turn it into lower TCO, new services or new revenue, backed by business cases that go beyond standards compliance. 

• Lead R&D, System Engineering, QA and Program Management through scope, schedule, quality and cost trade-offs, from concept to launch. 

• Own pricing and packaging recommendations, forecasts, margin targets, and revenue and adoption KPIs, and adjust the roadmap based on commercial and field results. 

• Engage operators through roadmap reviews, RFx responses, trials and first deployments, and support Sales and Pre-Sales on deals and proposals. 

• Manage partners, multi-vendor interoperability, security and regulatory needs, and the relevant 3GPP and O-RAN requirements. 

• Drive go-to-market and lifecycle execution with Marketing and Sales: positioning, enablement, release readiness, customer feedback and end-of-life plans. 

• Champion AI-first ways of working, using AI tools for market analysis and product decisions. 

What you bring:

• B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Communications or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. An MBA is an advantage. 

• Typically 10+ years in telecom or wireless infrastructure, including 5+ years in product management or product line management, or equivalent experience. 

• A record of taking a product from concept to commercial deployment with operators, including its roadmap, business case, releases and results. 

• Technical understanding of 2G/3G/4G/5G RAN and of how operators deploy and run RAN products. 

• Direct operator engagement and sales support across RFx, trials and roadmap reviews. 

• A value-driven, entrepreneurial approach to AI/ML and emerging technology: start from customer problems, tell value from hype, and prioritize business outcomes. 

• Strong analytical, pricing and communication skills. You can lead global, matrixed teams through influence, present clearly to executives, customers and engineers, and travel internationally as needed. 

Nice to have:

• Hands-on Open RAN and multi-vendor RAN experience. 

• An engineering, system engineering or solutions / pre-sales background. 

• Experience bringing AI/ML, automation or energy-saving RAN products to market.
