Job Description
Senior Product Manager
What you will do (Not limited to):
- Own product vision and roadmap for core platform domains
Lead the definition and evolution of key platform capabilities supporting airline distribution and B2B travel commerce, balancing short-term delivery with long-term platform sustainability. - Act as the functional authority for complex workflows
Define and document end-to-end product behaviour across booking lifecycles, including search, pricing, booking, ticketing, cancellations, refunds, commissions, settlements, and operational edge cases. - Work closely with architecture and engineering leadership
Partner deeply with the Principal Software Architect and engineering teams to shape system boundaries, APIs, data flows, and sequencing of platform capabilities. - Translate strategy into execution-ready requirements
Convert high-level business objectives into clear, prioritised product requirements, user journeys, and acceptance criteria suitable for high-risk transactional systems. - Drive phased product evolution
Support incremental delivery and controlled platform evolution, ensuring new capabilities are introduced safely without disrupting live operations. - Balance commercial, operational, and technical needs
Work with business, finance, and operations stakeholders to ensure product decisions account for revenue impact, cost efficiency, operational risk, and regulatory considerations. - Champion data-informed decision making
Define success metrics beyond delivery (e.g. booking success rate, failure rates, refund SLAs, conversion impact) and use data to guide prioritisation and trade-offs. - Enable cross-functional alignment and buy-in
Clearly communicate product intent, priorities, and trade-offs to internal teams and selected external partners where appropriate. - Stay informed on industry and market trends
Track developments in airline technology, travel commerce, and platform models to inform product direction without chasing unnecessary complexity.
Requirement :
- Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
- 8+ years of overall experience, with at least 4–5 years in a senior product management role.
- Proven experience managing platform or system products rather than purely consumer-facing features.
- Strong understanding of transactional systems, APIs, and service-based architectures.
- Experience working closely with software architects and engineers on complex technical products.
- Solid grasp of Agile delivery principles, backlog management, and phased delivery in high-risk environments.
- Strong analytical skills with the ability to reason about workflows, edge cases, and failure scenarios.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, including the ability to explain complex concepts clearly.
- Experience in travel, airline systems, OTA platforms, payments, e-commerce, or fintech is a strong advantage.
- Familiarity with experimentation, optimisation, and metrics-driven improvement is a plus.
What We Value:
- Product managers who think in systems and lifecycles, not just screens and features.
- Comfort operating in ambiguous, evolving environments where requirements are complex and trade-offs are real.
- Strong ownership mindset and willingness to engage deeply with technical and operational detail.
- Ability to balance pragmatism with long-term product vision.
