Deine Position As (Lead) Product Manager for our Energy Utility Platform, you will take ownership of one of the most strategically important domains in the company: enabling the energy products of the future. This means building the capabilities that allow our customers to fully participate in energy markets - from flexibility marketing and dynamic procurement to trading and optimized energy scheduling.

Together with the Engineering Manager, you will steer roadmap, priorities, and delivery - collaborating closely with our Energy Operations team who bring deep domain expertise and regulatory context. You will define the product strategy and roadmap for this domain, and you will also be hands-on in day-to-day product management: writing specs, running discovery, unblocking engineers, and shipping. This is a role that combines strategic ownership with execution - you own the product strategy for an entire cluster AND you deliver against it yourself. Your main focus will be to: Define and own the product strategy and outcome-based roadmap for the Energy Utility Platform - energy market access, flexibility marketing, procurement, and the optimization layer connecting devices to markets Be hands-on in execution: write specs, run discovery sprints, prioritize backlogs, unblock engineering - this is not a "strategy-only" role Shape the energy products of the future: direct marketing, expanded flexibility participation, and new forms of customer market access - while also tackling the regulatory and infrastructure challenges that make them possible Collaborate closely with Energy Operations (domain experts, regulatory context) and engineering to ensure product decisions are grounded in market reality Navigate complex regulatory environments (German energy market, MaKo, grid fee structures, metering) and translate them into actionable product requirements Balance visionary product thinking with the discipline to solve hard infrastructure problems - you need both Build and mentor a small PM team over time as the domain grows Report to the Director Product Heartbeat AI and contribute to portfolio-level strategy decisions Other responsibilities: Ensuring alignment between the Energy Utility Platform and the consumer-facing Heartbeat App (pricing display, customer transparency, product activation) Establishing KPIs and monitoring for energy product health (procurement accuracy, market participation, SLA adherence) Managing stakeholder expectations across engineering, Energy Operations, commercial, and leadership Dein Profil The successful candidate will have: 5+ years of Product Management experience, with meaningful exposure to energy, utilities, or similarly regulated platform/infrastructure products Proven track record of owning product strategy (not just execution) - you've made "where to play / how to win" decisions, not just shipped features Strong understanding of energy markets, tariff structures, energy trading, or energy retail operations - this is a requirement, not a nice-to-have Experience driving complex platform or product builds in regulated environments - coordinating across multiple engineering teams and navigating regulatory constraints Strong analytical skills: comfortable with financial modeling, unit economics, and data-driven decision-making Excellent stakeholder management: you can navigate engineering, commercial, legal, and C-level conversations with equal confidence Experience leading or mentoring other PMs (or strong signals that you're ready for it) Exceptional communication skills in English; German is a strong plus (many stakeholders are German-speaking) Based in Germany or willing to relocate - this role requires presence in the German energy market context Willingness to work in a fast-paced, scaling
