Lead Product Manager

We are looking for an experienced Lead Product Manager to lead multiple product streams

and a team of Product Managers at Petpooja.

This role requires a strong combination of product leadership, technical understanding,

execution discipline and stakeholder management. The person should be comfortable

working closely with Engineering teams, understanding technical trade-offs, managing multiple

products simultaneously and converting business and customer problems into scalable product

solutions.

The role will also play an important part in driving AI-powered product capabilities — not by

developing AI models, but by identifying the right opportunities, defining the product experience,

articulating requirements with Engineering/AI teams and taking these capabilities successfully to

production.

Key Responsibilities

Product & Roadmap Ownership

● Own and drive the roadmap across multiple product streams.

● Translate business objectives and customer problems into clear product priorities and

execution plans.

● Define clear success criteria and measurable outcomes for products and major

initiatives.

● Continuously evaluate product performance, customer adoption and business impact,

and fine-tune the roadmap accordingly.

● Balance new product development, customer requirements, platform improvements and

technical investments.

● Drive products across the lifecycle from discovery and validation through

development, release, adoption and scale.

Product Team Leadership

● Lead and mentor a team of approximately 6–7 Product Managers across different

functional streams.

● Help Product Managers improve problem definition, product discovery, prioritisation,

roadmap planning and execution.

● Establish clear ownership and accountability across individual product areas.

● Conduct regular product and roadmap reviews to ensure teams remain aligned with

customer and business outcomes.

● Develop Product Managers who can independently work with Business, Design and

Engineering teams.

Technical Product Leadership

● Bring strong technical product understanding and be comfortable discussing

architecture, APIs, integrations, data flows, platform capabilities and technical

constraints with Engineering teams.

● Work closely with Engineering Leads and Architects to evaluate feasibility, complexity,

and technical trade-offs.

● Convert complex technical capabilities into meaningful product experiences.

● Understand when a requirement should be solved as a feature versus a reusable

platform capability.

● Ensure Product and Engineering teams have clarity on requirements, priorities,

dependencies and expected outcomes.

AI Product Execution

● Identify opportunities where AI can meaningfully improve customer workflows,

automation and decision-making.

● Drive AI-powered products/features from concept to production in partnership with

Engineering, Data and AI teams.● Clearly articulate the customer problem, expected experience, success criteria and

business value of AI initiatives.

● Be comfortable discussing AI capabilities and limitations with engineers without needing

to be an AI/ML developer.

● Ensure AI initiatives move beyond experimentation and are successfully released,

adopted and measured.

Stakeholder Management

● Partner closely with Business, Engineering, Design, Data, AI, Sales, Customer

Success and leadership teams.

● Manage competing requirements across multiple stakeholders and product streams.

● Clearly communicate product priorities, roadmap decisions and trade-offs.

● Create alignment between customer requirements, business priorities and engineering

investments.
