• Define the product vision, problem space, and guiding principles for a new AI-native ERP focused on accounting and core financial workflows. • Translate accounting, finance, and operational realities into scalable product concepts, domain models, and system behavior. • Lead 0→1 product discovery and delivery—from concept validation through early customer adoption. • Identify and design AI-first workflows across accounting and finance (e.g., intelligent automation, anomaly detection, predictive insights, and AI-assisted close). • Partner with engineering and data teams to embed AI into the core of the product—not as features, but as foundational capabilities. • Personally leverage AI tools to accelerate market research, competitive analysis, product briefs, epics, stories, and prototyping. • Operate with a builder’s mindset—comfortable creating prototypes, exploring APIs, working with data, and validating ideas through hands-on experimentation. • Write clear, outcome-driven product briefs, epics, and user stories that align engineering, design, and stakeholders. • Make pragmatic trade-offs that balance accounting correctness, usability, scalability, and speed. • Engage directly with finance leaders, controllers, and operators in process manufacturing to deeply understand pain points and workflows. • Validate product direction through pilots, design partnerships, and early access programs. • Shape product-market fit by grounding decisions in real customer outcomes rather than legacy ERP conventions. • Work closely with Engineering, UX, Data, Strategy, and early GTM teams to move quickly and cohesively. • Communicate product vision, priorities, and trade-offs clearly to executives and peers. • Help establish modern product discovery and delivery practices appropriate for an early-stage, high-ambition platform.
