Director of Product Management -Product Platform

CaptivateIQ is transforming the way companies manage and optimize their business models and is seeking a Director of Product Management to lead the strategy and execution of their Product Platform. This role involves overseeing the shared foundation of CaptivateIQ applications, ensuring interoperability and governance while fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation among product teams.

Responsibilities:

• Own the Product Platform strategy and roadmap
• Make the platform an accelerant, not a tax
• Champion interface-first, agent-ready design
• Model hands-on product leadership
• Scale enterprise readiness
• Develop system thinkers
• Drive measurable impact

Requirements:

• 4+ years leading product managers, with a track record of shaping complex, multi-tenant systems
• Deep experience with platform or infrastructure products — data platforms, APIs and developer platforms, workflow/orchestration engines, identity and access, or similar foundational layers where correctness, scale, and usability intersect
• Demonstrated ability to build reusable primitives and abstractions that serve multiple products, teams, and external builders
• Strong API-first instincts — you think in interfaces, schemas, and contracts before screens
• Fluency with and genuine curiosity about the AI/agent stack: MCP, agent tooling, evals, context management, and how orchestration around a model — not just the model — drives differentiated value
• Strong cross-functional instincts — able to bring together Engineering, Design, Sales, and CX around shared context and goals
• A coaching mindset; you invest in developing people's judgment, not just their execution
• Clear, structured thinking — you simplify complexity without losing nuance
• Passion for creating environments where product teams do their best, most thoughtful work
