Lead Product Manager

The company is a rapidly growing construction technology company revolutionizing the pre-construction industry through artificial intelligence. Founded by construction industry veterans, our award-winning application automates the takeoff process, enabling estimators to analyze blueprints in seconds rather than hours or days.

We're implementing a strategy to enhance the company’s value through powerful APIs and strategic integrations with key construction platforms. This approach will allow customers to leverage our AI-powered takeoff capabilities within their existing workflows while expanding our market reach. We're looking for a versatile product leader who combines traditional product management expertise with specialized knowledge of API products and business development skills to drive partner integrations. This role requires someone who can balance technical requirements, user needs, and business opportunities while establishing us as an essential component in the construction technology ecosystem.

What you'll do:

• Own the product strategy and end-to-end user experience for current and future products and feature areas in your portfolio.
• Engage with current users, early adopters, and potential customers to understand challenges and identify opportunities to create transformative solutions.
• Drive the discovery process through customer interviews, market research, and data analysis to identify and validate product opportunities that address real customer pain points.
• Lead the development of new products and modules, including complementary pre-construction solutions, from initial concept through market launch, applying rigorous research, experimentation, and rapid iteration to transform industry workflows while ensuring seamless integration with our existing platform.
• Lead our API product lifecycle, from conducting user research and competitive analysis to developing comprehensive specifications, documentation, and developer experience tools that enable our platform to serve as the central source of truth for quantity data across different construction software ecosystems. 
• Establish and manage strategic relationships with key software partners, negotiating integration approaches and defining joint roadmaps that deliver value to customers
• Collaborate with our internal subject-matter experts, UX team, and software developers to conceptualize, design, and deliver innovative solutions that seamlessly integrate with our platform.
• Develop product specifications that clearly articulate user needs, functionality, user experience, and success criteria to guide successful implementation.
• Establish measurable success criteria, track progress, and manage through obstacles to achieve objectives.
• Set a clear go-to-market strategy in partnership with marketing and sales teams.
• Stay current on construction technology trends, industry standards, and competitor activities.

Who you are:

• You have 8+ years of software product management experience; the ideal candidate will have both startup experience and experience working for established companies with successful products and effective product development processes
• You have managed, designed, developed, shipped, and supported B2B SaaS software products
• You have experience in navigating the ambiguity of zero-to-one products while maintaining alignment with existing product lines
• You have a strong technical foundation and can effectively communicate with both engineers and business stakeholders about API design, data mapping, and integration workflows
• You understand the commercial aspects of technology partnerships, including contract negotiations, co-marketing agreements, and partner enablement
• Ideally, you have experience with software products in the AEC domain, such as:
  
  • Construction estimating or takeoff software
  • Construction management platforms
  • BIM (Building Information Modeling) tools
  • Project management solutions for contractors
  • Field operations or document management systems
• You possess strong product vision and execution skills, and are decisive with the ability to back up your opinions.
• You are comfortable making impactful decisions based on a balanced view of user research, domain expertise, data, and well-reasoned intuition.
• You have demonstrated leadership skills with the ability to influence cross-functional teams without direct authority.
• You have exceptional communication skills and can articulate complex concepts to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

We’re committed to transforming the construction industry through innovative AI solutions. This role offers the unique opportunity to lead both our near-term integration strategy and our long-term product vision, positioning us as the cornerstone of modern construction estimation. If you're excited about building bridges between platforms today while developing groundbreaking products for tomorrow, we want to hear from you.
