Senior Product Manager - Productization (m/w/d)

The Role

In recent years we have shown that we can solve real customer problems. Now it is about turning proven solutions into repeatable products that can be sold and delivered at scale. That is exactly why we are looking for you!

You turn validated customer solutions into scalable products. Our product model follows three phases: 0→1 (understand the customer problem, prove the solution in a customer case), 1→n (turn this into a repeatable product) and n (sell, deliver and further develop at scale).

Your focus is on 1→n: You clarify what the product is, for whom, what measurable value it delivers and how it is sold and delivered as a standard offering. You are responsible for the product and productization – Engineering, Delivery, Sales and Product Marketing remain responsible for implementation, customer projects, opportunities and marketing. In addition, you are responsible for the lifecycle of existing products: you secure their strengths and standards and develop them in a targeted way.

Your tasks:

• Consistently transform validated solutions into repeatable, standardized offerings
• Sharpen target customers, pain points, business value and value proposition
• Define a clear standard scope and clear product boundaries – including what is deliberately not included
• Work with Engineering to establish the necessary product maturity
• Pragmatically translate customer feedback into product decisions
• Provide Product Marketing with the professional foundation for positioning, messaging and content
• Enable Sales and Presales to explain and sell the product without permanent Product support
• Enable Delivery to implement rollout and operations with manageable effort
• Be responsible for lifecycle, further development and prioritization, for newly productized as well as existing products whose strengths and standards need to be secured

What you bring

• 5+ years of relevant experience in product management in a complex B2B or enterprise software environment
• Proven experience in turning individual customer requirements, pilots or prototypes into a standardized, repeatable product
• Very good technical understanding of complex software, data and AI products: you work with Engineering at eye level and connect business, customer, product and technology – without having to be an engineer yourself
• Pragmatic way of working with a strong 80/20 focus and fast decision-making ability even with incomplete information, supported by solid methodological product experience
• High ownership: recognize risks early and come with a clear recommendation instead of asking for more time or resources
• Clear focus on business value and results rather than processes, with the talent to reduce complexity
• Advantageous: experience with industrial customers or enterprise solutions such as Manufacturing, PLM, ERP, SCM or Data
• Willingness to travel for on-site customer meetings
• Very good German and English, written and spoken

What the role is not

So that you can assess whether the role fits you: we deliberately do not seek

• a classic Product Owner focused on backlog and tickets,
• a pure project manager,
• another 0→1 innovator,
• a Presales specialist,
• a pure strategist,
• a technical Product Manager who thinks primarily in features and architecture.

Benefits:

• Real design responsibility: you shape a newly defined role and our product operating model for 2027 and beyond
• Short paths: direct collaboration with management, Engineering, Sales and Delivery
• Flexible working: hybrid working, flexible working hours and 30 days of vacation
• Modern environment: office in the Werksviertel in Munich (House of Communication), modern equipment and international, diverse teams
• Development & culture: regular feedback, flat hierarchies and collaborative teamwork
• Plus: Spendit Card, Urban Sports Club or EGYM Wellpass, free drinks, contribution to company pension plan, coffee & fruit as well as team and office events
