  • Drive cross-functional alignment, maintain product data integrity and coordinate timely delivery across the product lifecycle.
  • Act as the day-to-day product decision-maker within defined boundaries, enabling the Product team to scale beyond a single Product Manager.

What you'll bring:

In this role, you will take ownership of feature delivery from end to end, defining requirements and acceptance criteria, coordinating engineering handovers, validating delivery and supporting successful commercial launches. You will manage non-standard sales opportunities by assessing feasibility, making configuration decisions within agreed boundaries and documenting exceptions, while ensuring full traceability from customer requests through to delivered capability. Working closely with Engineering, Industrialisation, Production, Marketing and Sales, you will coordinate cross-functional activities to remove blockers, maintain an accurate and prioritised Jira backlog, and respond to product enquiries from Sales. You will also prepare products for launch through documentation, training, pricing and sales enablement, maintain up-to-date product documentation, communicate complex photonic, cryogenic and networking architectures to a range of stakeholders, and represent the product in customer-facing activities including pre-sales support, technical discussions and trade shows.

• - Own end-to-end feature delivery, from requirements definition and engineering handover through to delivery validation, commercial launch and ongoing product documentation.
  • Coordinate cross-functionally with Engineering, Industrialisation, Production, Marketing and Sales, while managing Jira backlog integrity, product enquiries and non-standard sales opportunities.
  • Support successful product adoption by communicating complex technical architectures, ensuring launch readiness, providing pre-sales support and representing the product in customer discussions and at trade shows.

You'll be a great fit with:

The ideal candidate will hold a Master's degree in Engineering, Physics, Photonics, Microengineering or a related technical discipline, combined with an action-oriented mindset and the confidence to make decisions in an environment of uncertainty. You will be able to understand and reason about complex hardware products involving photonics, cryogenics and networking technologies, while communicating effectively with both technical and commercial stakeholders. You will be comfortable representing products in customer-facing situations, including technical discussions, pre-sales meetings and trade shows, and have a strong understanding of manufacturing environments, including industrialisation constraints, production realities and supply chain considerations. You will also be confident resolving conflicting priorities, negotiating with stakeholders and developing deep expertise in quantum technologies, supported by advanced Jira proficiency, including workflow configuration, automation rules and custom field management.

• - Master's degree in Engineering, Physics, Photonics, Microengineering or a related technical discipline, with the ability to make product decisions autonomously within defined boundaries.
  • Strong technical, commercial and customer-facing communication skills, with experience discussing complex hardware products and representing products in pre-sales meetings and trade shows.
  • Advanced Jira expertise, manufacturing and industrialisation knowledge, excellent stakeholder management and negotiation skills, and a genuine curiosity for deep-tech and quantum technologies.
