You will be expected to: Own the product narrative end-to-end: translate AI capabilities into clear, compelling value propositions for customers, internal teams, and the market. You know how to turn ambiguity into a strong, simple story. Drive alignment at scale: bring multiple product teams, stakeholders, and leadership together around a shared direction, priorities, and launch plan. Initiate and lead big bets: identify and kick off large, high-impact initiatives, define success clearly, and push them forward decisively. Be decisive and pragmatic: make informed trade-offs, move forward with incomplete information, and keep teams focused on outcomes rather than perfection. Lead go-to-market execution: partner closely with marketing, sales, and enablement to design and launch a large GTM motion, ensuring readiness, clarity, and adoption. Provide strong interim leadership: offer stability, direction, and confidence during the maternity cover period, while keeping long-term product strategy intact. Managing up: distil complex product strategy, progress, and trade-offs into clear executive narratives, acting as a trusted sparring partner for senior leadership. qualifications Success in this role is less about deep AI expertise and more about product leadership, positioning, execution power, and the ability to mobilize an organization around a bold launch. additionalInformation This role is ideally based in Delft, the Netherlands (hybrid). Europe-based remote candidates will be considered, with the expectation of bi-weekly in-person presence in Delft.
