Own product vision and roadmap for core platform domains
Lead the definition and evolution of key platform capabilities supporting airline distribution and B2B travel commerce. Balance short-term delivery with long-term platform sustainability.
Act as the functional authority for complex workflows
Define and document end-to-end product behavior across booking lifecycles. Cover search, pricing, booking, ticketing, cancellations, refunds, commissions, settlements, and operational edge cases.
Work closely with architecture and engineering leadership
Partner deeply with the Principal Software Architect and engineering teams. Shape system boundaries, APIs, data flows, and sequencing of platform capabilities.
Translate strategy into execution-ready requirements
Convert high-level business objectives into clear, prioritized product requirements and user journeys. Establish acceptance criteria suitable for high-risk transactional systems.
Drive phased product evolution
Support incremental delivery and controlled platform evolution. Ensure new capabilities are introduced safely without disrupting live operations.
Balance commercial, operational, and technical needs
Work with business, finance, and operations stakeholders. Ensure product decisions account for revenue impact, cost efficiency, operational risk, and regulatory considerations.
Champion data-informed decision making
Define success metrics beyond delivery (e.g., booking success rate, failure rates, refund SLAs, conversion impact).Use data to guide prioritization and trade-offs.
Enable cross-functional alignment and buy-in
Clearly communicate product intent, priorities, and trade-offs to internal teams and selected external partners where appropriate.
Stay informed on industry and market trends
Track developments in airline technology, travel commerce, and platform models to inform product direction without chasing unnecessary complexity.
