Role Overview
We are seeking a hands-on, technically capable Senior Technical Product Manager to drive the modernization and continued evolution of a proprietary cloud-based ERP platform. You'll take ownership of the product direction, strengthen the development process, and lead the modernization of the platform while keeping the live system stable. You'll play a key role in making the platform more reliable, modern and AI-enabled, with potential opportunities to support future integration as the organization grows.
What You'll Own
- Act as the primary day-to-day interface with the India-based development team.
- Translate business requirements into clear technical requirements and actionable development work.
- Own and manage the product backlog, priorities, estimates and delivery expectations.
- Work directly with senior leadership and business stakeholders to define product direction and roadmap.
- Review technical estimates and hold the development team accountable for delivery.
- Own QA, UAT, regression testing and release management to ensure reliable production releases.
- Drive modernization and clean-up of the existing codebase while minimizing disruption to day-to-day operations.
- Help evaluate and guide the potential modernization of the existing PHP/Laravel backend toward Node.js.
- Identify opportunities to integrate AI into the platform and lead initiatives from concept through production.
- Establish a long-term product roadmap for the platform.
- Support future system integration initiatives, including potential M&A-related ERP integration.
- Help establish strong standards around engineering quality, application security, performance, monitoring and CI/CD.
What We're Looking For
- Approximately 10 years of experience in technical product management, software delivery, or complex business applications.
- Proven experience managing offshore or India-based development teams across time zones.
- Experience setting technical direction, reviewing estimates and driving accountability with development teams.
- Strong experience with ERP or complex enterprise business systems.
- Strong technical grounding in Node.js, React, PostgreSQL, REST APIs, Azure/AWS and Git/GitHub.
- Ability to engage credibly with developers, review technical work and make sound technical decisions.
- A proven track record of modernizing legacy applications while maintaining a stable live production environment.
- Strong experience with QA, UAT, regression testing and release management.
- Comfortable using AI tools as part of your day-to-day work.
- Strong communication skills and the ability to work directly with senior leadership and business stakeholders.
- Ability to translate business needs into clear product and technical requirements.
- Comfortable taking ownership, making decisions and driving execution independently.
Strong Assets
- Experience integrating AI / LLM capabilities into enterprise applications.
- Hands-on experience with tools such as Claude, OpenAI or Copilot.
- Laravel / PHP experience, particularly in a legacy or modernization environment.
- Experience modernizing a custom-built ERP rather than configuring a packaged ERP.
- Understanding of application security, performance, monitoring and CI/CD.
- Experience with system integration in an M&A environment.
- Experience building AI-enabled enterprise applications.
All applications are reviewed by our recruitment team, and hiring decisions are made by people. We may also use AI-enabled tools to support parts of the application review process.
