We're hiring for a fast-growing technology company building a unified IoT platform across multiple business lines.

This is not a "sit back and manage" role.

This is for someone who owns the product and makes sure it actually ships.

You'll sit at the intersection of:
  • product thinking
  • engineering execution
  • business priorities

And you'll be the person who makes all three move in the same direction.

What You'll Own
Product Management
  • Define and manage the product roadmap
  • Prioritise features based on:
    • customer value
    • business impact
    • engineering bandwidth
  • Write clear user stories + acceptance criteria (no ambiguity for engineers)
  • Define MVP scope with strict discipline (no feature creep)
  • Run structured requirements discovery with internal and external stakeholders
  • Track competitors (IoT platforms, cloud ecosystems, etc.)
  • Build product collateral:
    • one-pagers
    • demo scripts
    • integration guides

Project & Delivery Management
  • Run full Agile cycles (planning → execution → review → retros)
  • Manage distributed engineering teams across time zones
  • Own project health dashboards (no surprises to leadership)
  • Track risks early:
    • dependencies
    • blockers
    • mitigation plans
  • Maintain documentation ecosystem:
    • architecture decisions
    • product specs
    • onboarding guides
  • Monitor budget vs actuals
  • Coordinate with internal teams (HR, Finance, Legal) to keep delivery unblocked

Stakeholder Management
  • Prepare board-level monthly updates
  • Manage structured requirements intake pipeline
  • Own client demo environments
  • Coordinate with hardware/OEM partners on integrations

What We're Looking For (Must-Have)
  • 4-8 years in Product / Project Management within a product-based tech company
  • Strong IoT understanding:
    • MQTT
    • device lifecycle
    • APIs
    • cloud IoT ecosystems
      (You don't code-but you must understand enough to challenge engineers)
  • Proven experience:
    • owning a roadmap
    • making trade-offs
    • shipping real products
  • Hands-on Agile execution (not just attending meetings-you've run them)
  • Comfortable with ambiguity and zero-process environments
  • Strong written communication (you'll write everything that matters)
  • Experience with tools like:
    • Jira / Linear
    • Notion / Confluence
  • Based in UAE or ready to relocate immediately (non-negotiable)

Nice to Have
  • Experience in:
    • IoT platforms
    • industrial tech
    • hardware + software ecosystems
  • Exposure to AWS / Azure (basic admin level)
  • Certifications (CSPO / PMP / PRINCE2)
  • Arabic language skills
