What you'll do

  • Own the freeflow portfolio: ANPR camera, Focus and Signature info displays, LED signage and guidance systems, parking machines and the ParkAgent customer software
  • Build the roadmap and prioritize by customer value, revenue and effort, reconciling long hardware cycles with short software release cycles
  • Regularly gather from sales where deals fail on the product and what customers miss after launch, and turn that into roadmap decisions
  • Visit customers and parking sites and support support cases, from small lot owners to airports with varying quotas
  • Write requirements that hardware, firmware and software development can work with, weighing function, cost and time with them
  • Manage the device lifecycle: new generations, component changes, field firmware updates and end-of-life announcements
  • Own integrations with mobile parking apps like EasyPark and Parkster, machine providers, enforcement and owner tracing, and decide which partners to connect next
  • Develop prices and packages with the Go-to-Market Lead, support sales in tenders and prepare product launches with marketing and customer success
  • Report to the Go-to-Market Lead Freeflow and work closely with the Head of TechDev and development

What we're looking for

  • 3 to 5 years of product management experience, a good part of it with connected hardware in the field plus software
  • A technical degree such as computer science, electrical engineering or industrial engineering, or a comparable background
  • Enough software understanding to discuss APIs, data models and architecture with developers and estimate effort realistically
  • Experience with what makes hardware different: bills of materials, lead times, component end-of-life and devices in the field that cannot simply be redeployed
  • Willingness to set priorities and defend them to sales, customers and management, even when not everyone is happy

Nice to have

  • Experience with license plate recognition (ANPR/LPR), video analytics or parking technology
