Role Overview

ChargerHelp is seeking an execution-focused Product Manager to own the day-to-day heartbeat of our product: the roadmap, the backlog, the PRDs, and the cross-functional coordination that turns vision into shipped software.

Our CEO leads product strategy and direction. Your job is to make that direction real, sequencing it into a clear, prioritized roadmap, writing tight specifications, keeping engineering unblocked, and ensuring every team that touches the product (Sales, Customer Success, Operations, Field Services) knows what's coming, when, and why.

What You’ll Do

Roadmap Ownership

• Translate the CEO's product direction into a clear, sequenced, quarterly roadmap across software, diagnostics, field enablement, and data products.

• Maintain and communicate the roadmap to all stakeholders: Engineering, Sales, Customer Success, Operations, and executive leadership.

• Apply prioritization frameworks to ensure transparent, data-informed sequencing decisions.

• Manage the backlog end-to-end: grooming, sprint planning, and ensuring engineering always has a clear, unambiguous queue.

• Balance investment across new features, platform improvements, and technical debt in collaboration with engineering leadership.

Product Specifications & Delivery

• Write precise, complete PRDs and user stories with clear acceptance criteria, edge cases, and success metrics for every feature shipped.

• Lead product discovery: customer interviews, usability sessions, field technician feedback and convert insights directly into requirements.

• Partner daily with engineering to clarify scope, resolve ambiguity, and keep delivery on track without creating process overhead.

• Own the full product lifecycle from concept through launch, iteration, and deprecation.

• Define and track product health metrics: uptime, diagnostic accuracy, feature adoption, and operational workflow efficiency.

Cross-Functional Coordination

• Serve as the connective tissue between Engineering, Operations, Sales, Customer Success, and Field Services — ensuring everyone knows what's shipping and when.

• Coordinate product launches end-to-end: release notes, enablement materials, Sales and CS briefings, and customer communications.

• Facilitate weekly product reviews with engineering and bi-weekly roadmap syncs with the executive team.

• Identify and surface cross-functional risks early - technical, operational, and timeline so they can be resolved before they block delivery.

Customer Insight & Market Awareness

• Conduct continuous customer discovery across charging networks, site hosts, utilities, and field technicians to keep requirements grounded in operational reality.

• Monitor the competitive landscape and surface relevant market shifts, regulatory changes, or technology trends that should influence roadmap priorities.

• Provide Sales and Customer Success with product positioning support, FAQs, and competitive talking points aligned to the current roadmap.

Data, Analytics & Experimentation

• Track product usage, uptime metrics, and diagnostic performance ensuring teams have visibility into whether what we're shipping is working.

• Design and run pilots and lighthouse programs to validate product decisions before broad rollout.

• Use data to inform prioritization, measure feature health, and drive continuous improvement cycles.

Compliance & Risk Awareness

• Maintain awareness of EV charging industry standards, cybersecurity requirements, privacy regulations, and accessibility guidelines as they affect product decisions.

• Flag product risk (technical, regulatory, and operational) early and ensure they are surfaced to the CEO and engineering leadership.

• Support build-vs-buy evaluation with structured research and recommendation framing.

Cross-Functional Alignment & Leadership

• Serve as the connective force between Engineering, Operations, Sales, Partnerships, Customer Success, and Finance.

• Facilitate alignment around outcomes, timelines, and responsibilities.

• Establish scalable processes that support transparent communication and cross-functional execution.

• Prepare product updates and roadmap communications for the executive team.

What You Bring

• 5–7 years of product management experience in a technical environment - SaaS, platform, or complex hardware-software product. Engineering-led org experience strongly preferred.

• Demonstrated success delivering complex software products end-to-end, from discovery through launch and iteration, with measurable outcomes.

• Technical fluency spanning systems architecture, integrations, APIs, and data flows. You earn engineering credibility without needing things explained twice.

• Proven ability to write PRDs that engineers can build from without follow-up questions, with clear acceptance criteria, edge cases, and success metrics defined.

• Deep customer empathy with the ability to design products around real-world operational needs.

• Strong cross-functional communication skills and experience that is clear and structured with both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Comfort and enthusiasm working in a CEO-led product environment; you see direct access to a founder as an accelerant, not a constraint.

Required

• Experience in EV charging, energy systems, grid-edge technology, mobility, or a similarly complex technical industry.

• Familiarity with field service, workforce management, or IoT product environments.

• Background with diagnostic platforms, reliability tooling, or analytics-driven operational products.

• Experience at a startup or early-stage company where you have built product practices from scratch.

• Prior exposure to enterprise SaaS GTM working alongside Sales and Customer Success to land and expand.

• Execution-First: Strong bias for shipping. You create clarity from ambiguity, not analysis paralysis. You know when a decision is good enough to move on.

• A disciplined product operations rhythm: weekly engineering reviews, regular roadmap communications, and a well-groomed, PRD-backed backlog at all times.

• Product launches that are tightly coordinated with go-to-market teams.  Sales and CS are never caught off guard by what shipped.

• Customer insights flowing continuously into prioritization and discovery is a habit, not an event.

• ChargerHelp is seen internally and externally as an organization that ships reliably and communicates clearly about its product.
