We are looking for a strong product leader who understands complex software, values operational excellence, and can balance innovation with stability in a mission-critical environment. In addition, this role will identify and build new product capabilities from ideation through launch, helping shape the future of our cloud-based tax ecosystem. Tasks What You Will Do Product Strategy and Roadmap - Define and own the product vision and roadmap, including both platform evolution and new product innovation. - Balance innovation with platform stability and reliability in a mission-critical environment. - Identify opportunities to improve core workflows, customer value, and new product offerings. - Evaluate opportunities using customer insights, data, and market analysis. Annual Tax Season Delivery - Lead planning and execution of annual tax law updates. - Partner with compliance and tax content teams to implement federal and state changes accurately and on time. - Prioritize features and enhancements within fixed regulatory deadlines. - Ensure product readiness and performance during peak tax season. Customer Experience and Execution - Improve preparer workflows including return preparation, review, and electronic filing. - Use customer insights and data to drive measurable improvements. - Partner with engineering on performance, architecture, and technical priorities. - Collaborate with support, sales, and go-to-market teams. - Communicate priorities and tradeoffs clearly to stakeholders and leadership. Innovation & New Product Development - Identify and validate new product opportunities through customer discovery, data, and market trends. - Lead initiatives from ideation → validation → MVP → launch → early scale. - Rapidly test and iterate using experiments and customer feedback. - Explore opportunities to apply AI, automation, and modern cloud capabilities. Requirements Ideal Candidate Profile (Must-Haves) - Direct customer-facing product ownership – You have owned a commercial B2B SaaS product area, not just internal tools, platforms, or technical infrastructure. Client portals, document workflows, secure sharing, document collection/management, or workflow automation are ideal backgrounds. - Document ingestion / extraction depth – You have personally led an initiative involving OCR, classification, extraction, AI/ML, or LLM-based document processing. You can explain document types, technology/model choices, confidence thresholds, human-in-the-loop review, exceptions, validation, accuracy, and measurable outcomes. You understand security, sensitive data, auditability, and compliance. - End-to-end product ownership – You have personally owned problem definition → discovery → vision → roadmap → prioritization → requirements → launch → measurement → iteration. You can clearly distinguish your own contribution from the broader team’s. - Fast execution and judgment – You have concrete examples of shipping with constrained engineering capacity, competing priorities, or tight deadlines. You make explicit tradeoffs rather than waiting for consensus. - Strong customer/problem orientation – You start with the customer problem and evidence (interviews, behavioral data, support/sales feedback, experimentation) to validate opportunities. - 0-to-1 / MVP experience – You have taken products or significant capabilities from concept to MVP/launch, can explain what you deliberately didn’t build and why, and can provide measurable post-launch results. - Practical AI fluency – You use AI throughout the product lifecycle (research synthesis, requirements, prototyping, analysis, testing, launch communications, monitoring) rather than simply listing AI exposure. - Cross-functional leadership – You are comfortable leading through engineering, design, data, AI/ML, security, operations, sales, support, and executives. You communicate clearly and concisely. - Metrics-driven – You can quantify impact: adoption, processing time, revenue, retention, conversion, efficiency, support volume, accuracy, error rates, etc. You avoid vague phrases like “improved the experience” without evidence. Requirements - 6+ years of product management experience in software - Experience building or scaling cloud-based / SaaS products - Experience in tax, accounting, fintech, or compliance-driven products is a plus (not required) - Proven ability to manage complex release cycles under tight deadlines - Strong analytical and problem-solving skills - Strong ability to balance innovation with operational excellence - Excellent communication and cross-functional leadership skills - High attention to detail and execution - Demonstrated ability to prioritize effectively using structured frameworks, balancing customer value, business impact, effort, and regulatory constraints Why This Opportunity If you are passionate about building innovative, high-impact software for professional users and want to shape the future of document intelligence in the tax ecosystem, we would love to hear from you.
