About the Role :

We are looking for a Product leader to own the vision, strategy and execution of our Enterprise Source-to-Pay (S2P) SaaS platform.

This is a high-impact role for someone who has lived the sourcing and procurement problem first-hand, advised enterprises on it as a consultant, and then built products to solve it.

You will work closely with Leadership, Engineering, Design, Sales, Customers and Implementation teams to build a scalable, differentiated procurement platform with AI and Agentic capabilities, taking the S2P platform from 0 - 1 and 1 - 10.

What You Will Own :

Product Strategy & Vision :

- Define and own the product vision and multi-year strategy for the S2P platform.

- Build and manage the annual and quarterly product roadmap.

- Identify market opportunities and define differentiation against Tier 1 S2P platforms.

- Drive product-market fit, customer adoption and expansion.

- Balance customer requirements with scalable, configurable product capabilities.

Sourcing Domain Leadership :

- Be the in-house authority on strategic sourcing : category strategy, spend cube analysis, RFx (RFI/RFP/RFQ), e-auctions, bid analysis, negotiation and award, TCO and savings tracking.

- Translate real-world sourcing and category management practices into product workflows.

- Bring a consultant's structured problem-solving to customer engagements and product design.

Product Discovery & Customer :

- Work directly with enterprise customers, CPOs, procurement leaders and business stakeholders.

- Lead discovery, validation and prioritization.

- Build a strong feedback loop between customers, Product, Engineering and GTM.

- Support pre-sales, solution design and key customer conversations.

Source-to-Pay Product :

- Own the evolution of the complete journey : Demand - Requisition - Sourcing - Supplier Management - Contracts - PO - Supplier Collaboration - GRN - Invoice - Spend Analytics.

AI & Agentic Product :

- Define and execute the AI/Agentic roadmap for procurement, for example Procurement Copilot, Supplier Scout, Sourcing Agent, Contract Intelligence, Spend Intelligence, Demand Intake Agent, and Invoice/PO Exception Agent.

- Identify where AI creates measurable procurement value (savings, cycle time, compliance), not just AI features.

Product Execution :

- Translate strategy into clear requirements and roadmaps.

- Partner with Engineering, UX and QA to deliver high-quality releases.

- Establish a strong Discovery - PRD - Development - QA - Release process.

- Drive prioritization across features, platform improvements, technical debt and customer commitments.

- Ensure predictable, outcome-driven delivery.

Enterprise Platform & Integrations :

- Drive a scalable enterprise architecture across SAP ECC / S/4HANA, SAP Ariba, SAP CPI / CIG, other ERP and Finance systems, APIs and third-party platforms.

UX & Product Experience :

- Own the product experience with the Design team.

- Simplify complex enterprise procurement workflows.

- Ensure consistency across modules, navigation and user journeys.

- Build a product that is easy to adopt, use and demonstrate.

Product Organization :

- Build, mentor and grow a high-performing Product team.

- Establish product management processes, standards and operating cadence.

- Good understanding of APIs, cloud, databases and enterprise integrations.

Education :
