captivateiq - Director of Product Management -Product Platform
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.
Responsibilities
• Own the Product Platform strategy and roadmap. Define how CaptivateIQ’s shared layers — data, workflows, reporting, identity, state, and the AI/agent platform — evolve to make every product faster to build and every model more connected. • Make the platform an accelerant, not a tax. A platform team succeeds only when product teams move faster because of it. Build primitives teams reach for by default, and retire the temptation to invent parallel versions. • Champion interface-first, agent-ready design. Every platform surface must be designed API-first with well-defined schemas and documentation, with human UX built on top. Agents are only as reliable as the APIs and data structures they operate on — your layers are that substrate. • Model hands-on product leadership. Stay close to the details. Immerse yourself in customer workflows, data models, agent behavior, and technical constraints. Reason from system dynamics, not surface requirements. • Scale enterprise readiness. Deliver the governance, auditability, access control, sandboxing, performance, and reliability that enterprises operating at scale depend on — and that make AI-generated logic trustworthy and governable. • Develop system thinkers. Coach PMs to think holistically across components and personas, reason about trade-offs, and make clear, structured decisions grounded in how the whole platform behaves. • Drive measurable impact. Connect platform work to company-level outcomes — development velocity, API-first coverage, cross-model data flows, reduction in fragmentation — and ensure alignment through clarity, not control.
