Stuttgart / Remote
Full-time
Permanent employee

Your mission

As Head of Product, you own the product as a whole — its vision, strategy, portfolio direction, customer value proposition, data foundation, and measurable business impact.
Guided by our vision to shape tomorrow’s sovereign collaborative workspace, you translate strategic ambition into a coherent, customer-centered product direction that delivers trusted collaboration, drives revenue growth, and ensures long-term differentiation.
You are the executive owner of:
  • Product strategy

Beyond product strategy, this role carries a critical transformation mandate:
 You will evolve our Product and Technology organization into a scalable, agile, AI-empowered, and data-driven operating model, in close partnership with the Head of Engineering and Go-To-Market.
This is a senior leadership position with direct influence on company strategy, operating model, and culture.

Your Mission
Define the future of our product — grounded in deep customer understanding and powered by intelligent data.
You align vision, customer insight, technology, and organizational capability to build a product organization that is outcome-driven, AI-powered, and relentlessly customer-centric.
You ensure that every strategic decision is informed by meaningful product and customer data — and that customer trust remains at the core of everything we build.
