You'll work across the GovPilot ecosystem, GovTech, SDL, and Hedgerow, owning the roadmap and pushing the team to use AI well — both in how we build product and what we build.</span></p><p style="font-family:"Basel Grotesk",Arial,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;margin:4px 0px;padding:0px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">This is not a role for someone who wants a defined roadmap handed to them and a backlog to just execute against. You'll set the direction yourself and run the machinery that turns it into shipped work. You'll be judged on outcomes, not on meetings run or tickets closed. We want someone who runs fast, adapts agile to what the team actually needs rather than what the textbook says, and has real opinions on where AI helps product work and where it's hype.</span></p><ul data-pattern="discCircleSquare" data-depth="1" style="font-family:"Basel Grotesk",Arial,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;margin:8px 0px;line-height:1.6;padding:0px 0px 0px 32px;list-style-type:disc;"><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Own the product roadmap and prioritize based on customer needs, business goals, and technical tradeoffs</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Run sprint planning, standups, retros, and backlog grooming, adapting the process to what the team actually needs</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Write clear specs, user stories, and acceptance criteria that engineers can build from without guessing</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Work closely with engineering leads to keep the team's velocity and quality high</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Bring AI into the product, both as a feature area and as a way the team works</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Talk to customers regularly and turn what you hear into product decisions</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Report on progress and tradeoffs to leadership in plain language</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">5+ years in product management, with real experience running agile teams (Scrum, Kanban, or your own hybrid that works)</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">A track record of shipping software and owning outcomes, not just outputs</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Strong opinions about AI and how it's changing product work, backed by hands-on experience using AI tools yourself</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Comfortable running a team's operating rhythm: planning, prioritization, and keeping people unblocked</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Clear writer and communicator, able to explain a decision to an engineer and a non-technical exec with equal clarity</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">A convincing advocate who can internalize customers' motivations and speak their language, including familiarity with the environmental health domain and awareness of US and Canadian audiences</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Design taste: a strong eye for UI/UX, and comfortable facilitating user testing to validate product decisions</span></li><li style="margin:3px 0px;font-size:11pt;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">A lot of agency — you lead without waiting to be told, and adapt when the plan changes</span></li></ul><p style="font-family:"Basel Grotesk",Arial,sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:1.6;letter-spacing:0.25px;margin:4px 0px;padding:0px;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Bonus: experience in GovTech, SaaS, or selling to non-technical buyers.
