Director of Product Management, Platform

Taxfix is reorganizing into a business unit model where each BU owns a customer segment and its P&L. The platform teams that power user management, payments, operational tooling, tax infrastructure, data extraction, and global bookkeeping are now the shared foundation for every BU in the company. You'll lead multiple group owners across the full platform area, reporting directly to the Chief Product Officer, ensuring the platform keeps pace with simultaneous demands from multiple business units while maintaining service quality and enabling AI-native product development.

What you'll do

• Own the platform product strategy and set direction for all platform teams including user management, payments, operational tooling, tax infrastructure, data extraction, and bookkeeping.
• Run the inner source model efficiently by defining how BUs contribute, when platform teams lead vs. enable, and how to keep velocity high without becoming a bottleneck.
• Lead service ownership across the platform and work with engineering to enforce service ownership standards so BU AI builder teams can move fast.
• Coordinate across business units, absorb complexity, resolve conflicts, and keep platform teams focused without creating queues.
• Actively manage portfolio and team sizing across multiple group owners and make reallocation calls based on BU demand.
• Build platform capabilities increasingly surfaced through MCP APIs and SDKs, ensuring the platform is set up to serve an AI-first product organisation.
• Define and own platform ROI, measuring success in BU velocity and business efficiency rather than feature throughput.
• Lead your group owners—high-autonomy builders working across technical, infrastructure-adjacent domains—with clear vision and ambitious execution.

What you'll need

• Led platform or infrastructure product at a scaling tech company and delivered results under real engineering and commercial pressure, managing group owners or tech leads.
• Built strong technical foundations with credibility in service ownership conversations, API strategy, and platform reliability trade-offs.
• Fluent in AI-native tooling: MCP, APIs, SDKs, and understand how AI-first organisations consume platform capabilities.
• Worked with inner source or platform-as-a-service models before and know the difference between shipping the model and making it work efficiently.
• High coordination threshold and thrive with multiple internal customers with competing demands.
• Measure platform success in BU velocity and ROI, not feature throughput or ticket closure rate.
• Built genuine trust with internal customers so BU leaders come to you early because it makes their work easier.
• Fluent in English and genuinely AI-native in your daily practice: workflows, coding assistants, real problems.

What they offer

• Free mental health coaching sessions and yoga.
• Monthly allowance for services, flexible and rolls over.
• Employee stock options for all employees.
• 30 annual vacation days and flexible working hours.
• Work from abroad for up to six weeks every year.
• Free tax declaration filing through the Taxfix app and internal tax support.
