We are looking for a Director of Product Strategy to define and drive the long-term direction of our product portfolio, ensuring that business goals, customer needs, market opportunities, and technological capabilities are aligned into a clear and actionable strategy. This role is ideal for a strategic leader who combines strong commercial thinking with deep product understanding and the ability to influence cross-functional teams at every level of the organization. The Director of Product Strategy will play a central role in shaping how products are conceived, prioritized, launched, and evolved over time.
In this position, you will evaluate market trends, customer behavior, competitive dynamics, and internal performance data to identify growth opportunities and strategic risks. You will work closely with product management, executive leadership, engineering, design, marketing, sales, finance, and operations to build a coherent product roadmap that supports both short-term execution and long-term business value. You will also help establish strategic frameworks, portfolio planning processes, and decision-making models that improve clarity, focus, and investment discipline across the organization.
A successful candidate is highly analytical, commercially aware, and capable of translating complex information into strategic recommendations that drive measurable outcomes. You should be comfortable leading strategic planning initiatives, facilitating executive discussions, and challenging assumptions with data-backed insights. This role requires excellent communication skills, strong stakeholder management, and the ability to balance innovation with operational realities.
The Director of Product Strategy will also be responsible for identifying new market segments, partnership opportunities, monetization models, and product expansion paths. You will assess product-market fit across existing and emerging offerings, define strategic priorities, and support the development of business cases for major investments. In addition, you will monitor portfolio performance and recommend adjustments based on changing market conditions, customer feedback, and company objectives.
This is a high-impact leadership role for someone who thrives in dynamic environments and enjoys connecting vision with execution. You will help ensure that our product organization is not only building the right features, but also investing in the right opportunities at the right time. If you are passionate about strategic thinking, product innovation, and guiding organizations toward sustainable growth, we encourage you to apply.
