KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
● Own product strategy and roadmap for commercial workflows (quoting, rating & pricing, and booking) across air and ocean freight movements, including self-service capabilities for end customers.
● Partner closely with engineering and design to translate deep domain knowledge of freight commercial operations (contract vs. spot rates, margin/markup logic, RFQ/RFP handling, quote-to-booking conversion) into enterprise-grade product requirements.
● Evaluate and incorporate emerging technology (AI/ML and agentic approaches to quoting and dynamic pricing, real-time rate distribution, and evolving industry data standards) to keep the platform ahead of where the market is heading.
● Run structured discovery with logistics operators and industry experts to validate and prioritize the roadmap.
● Partner with commercial and go-to-market teams to ensure the roadmap reflects real buyer needs and competitive dynamics.

● Strong customer engagement skills: comfortable running discovery, demos, and structured feedback sessions directly with senior logistics stakeholders, and translating that input into clear product decisions.

● Experience designing products intended to scale and adapt as industry standards and buyer expectations evolve.
● Familiarity with relevant industry bodies, standards, or trade associations in air/ocean freight.
