📋 Description

• Develop and steer the strategy for Data Capture in accordance with the Group's vision and priorities, establishing a clear thesis and quarterly roadmap for 2026 and 2027.

• Oversee the replatforming of the surface into composable primitives that can be utilized across various surfaces within the organization.

• Define and deliver the AI-native evolution of Data Capture, including Smart Blocks, AI-moderated interviews, voice and video respondent flows, and the components that render them composable.

• Collaborate with Typeform AI to implement agentic respondent experiences in production at the scale of 500 million responses annually, ensuring the core platform remains intact.

• Maintain high-quality standards across the group regarding specifications, discovery, instrumentation, and craftsmanship.

• Work closely with engineering on architectural choices that will influence the platform's future.

• Utilize AI tools to expedite discovery, analysis, documentation, and decision-making processes.

• Employ data and customer insights to pinpoint opportunities and evaluate product impact.

• Exhibit strong ownership and a proactive approach: identify risks, unblock teams, and drive initiatives forward.

• Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, design, research, marketing, customer success, and sales to agree on priorities and technical direction.

• Observe competitors, market trends, and changes in customer expectations to uncover opportunities and inform strategy.

⛳️ Requirements

• A strategic thinker with robust product instincts and a high sense of ownership.

• An AI-native operator who utilizes LLMs, agents, and tool-use frameworks regularly, considering AI fluency as a fundamental multiplier rather than just a buzzword.

• Significant expertise in agentic systems, LLM orchestration, tool utilization, or action execution frameworks, with insight into their production deployment at scale.

• Architectural conviction: Adept in platform architecture, enabling collaboration on renderer refactoring and decisions regarding modular and composable architecture.

• Technical depth: Comfortable interacting with engineers on architecture, system design, and the foundational elements (APIs, webhooks, rendered components, data contracts, event flows) that connect blocks to downstream users, beyond just the abstraction layer.

• Ability to engage in technical trade-off discussions surrounding performance, scalability, reliability, observability, and architectural direction.

• Experience managing Product Managers while simultaneously handling individual contributor responsibilities within one team.

• Proven track record in defining mid- and long-term product strategy across multiple teams in dynamic environments.

• Strong product intuition and the capability to discern what fosters an excellent creator and respondent experience.

• Customer-first mindset with adept discovery and validation skills; combines early customer feedback with data to rapidly test concepts.

• Data-driven decision-making and prioritization approach; capable of establishing the measurement model for a surface without relying on a data analyst for every inquiry.

• Exceptional storytelling and strategic framing abilities: capable of fostering alignment and influencing group and leadership-level decisions through clarity and narrative.

• High agency: takes initiative and excels in driving progress proactively.

• Enthusiastic about mentoring others and contributing to a robust product culture.

• Committed to continuous learning and improvement, invested in collaborating to create exceptional products.

• Familiarity with AI-enhanced product experiences like AI-moderated workflows, smart logic, or agentic flows (preferred).

• Experience leading platform or infrastructure-level product initiatives (preferred).
