  • Own and drive specific areas of the Scholar Gateway roadmap, from problem definition through delivery and iteration.

  • Own product capabilities related to content ingestion and lifecycle management, helping define how scholarly content is structured and maintained for AI-driven discovery.

  • Drive end-to-end workflows to support the onboarding of partners.

  • Partner closely with engineering to shape platform capabilities in areas where technical approaches and product expectations are still evolving.

  • Use qualitative and quantitative inputs (customer feedback, usage signals, partner needs) to inform prioritization and decision-making.

  • Contribute to demos, release notes, and lightweight documentation to support customer understanding and adoption.

  • Partner with support and operational teams on issues that impact customers, helping ensure a smooth product experience.

Required Qualifications:

  • At least 3-4 years of experience in product management.

  • Demonstrated ability to own and deliver discrete areas of a product roadmap, from discovery through execution.

  • Strong product judgment and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively across technical and nontechnical teams.

  • Analytical and problem-solving skills, with experience using data to inform prioritization and tradeoffs.

  • Experience working on technically complex, platform-oriented products (e.g., APIs, services, integrations).

  • Confidence working with AI enabled products and understanding, at a conceptual level, how modern AI systems use external content and data to inform responses.

  • Strong interest and enthusiasm for AI, particularly as related to applications in research and scholarly communication

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Interest or experience in content centric products, data platforms, or knowledge systems.

  • Experience translating ambiguous problem spaces into clear product goals and phased delivery plans.

  • Familiarity with AI infrastructure patterns such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP), agent tooling, or similar approaches for connecting content to AI workflows.

  • Experience working on products that incorporate AI-enabled capabilities or data driven workflows.
