The Opportunity
We are seeking a Product Manager to join IMDEX Geosolutions, the digital product team, within our Digital Orebody Knowledge business unit, where you will lead the discovery, definition and delivery of AI-driven data and analytics products.
Geosolutions is a cross-functional team of geoscientists, data scientists and engineers who build and scale AI-driven geoscience data products on IMDEX's platform. You will own several of these products at once, each from problem definition through to production-ready release, defining what to build and why, managing the backlog and driving execution through the Geosolutions product lifecycle.
This position brings together market insight, product thinking and technical coordination, translating commercial opportunities and client needs into clear, prioritised work for the data scientists, software engineers and geoscience specialists who build it.
Key Responsibilities
In this role, you will:
- Lead your products through each stage of the Geosolutions product lifecycle, from early experimentation and prototyping through to MVP design, build and deployment, preparing and presenting the evidence required at each decision gate.
- Work with clients, commercial teams and geoscience specialists to identify and validate the problems worth solving, and turn what you learn into a prioritised product roadmap.
- Own the product backlog for your product pods (the small cross-functional teams that build each product), defining, prioritising and communicating backlog items so the team always has a clear, actionable work queue.
- Translate business, client and domain requirements into user stories and acceptance criteria in partnership with the pod's data scientists, engineers and geoscience SMEs.
- Drive MVP definition and scope decisions, managing trade-offs between scope, timeline, quality and resourcing within each pod's agreed charter and budget.
- Apply the Feature to Product to Solution pathway to scoping and prioritisation, ensuring each product is built for scale and repeat deployment rather than one-off delivery.
- Coordinate with the platform team so product requirements are clearly defined, communicated and met at the platform level.
- Define and track the measures of success for each product after release, and support its handover into operations and ongoing feature iteration.
Qualifications & Experience:
- Degree in geoscience, engineering, computer science, business or a related discipline, or equivalent practical experience.
- Experience delivering machine learning or AI-based products, including the practical realities of model performance trade-offs, training data acquisition and validating model output with domain experts.
- Minimum 5 years of product management experience, with a demonstrated track record of delivering data-driven or analytics products from concept through to production.
- Experience managing product delivery, including backlog ownership, sprint ceremonies,
iterative development and stakeholder communication in a cross-functional team environment.
- Exposure to mining, exploration or geoscience workflows is highly regarded, though we will support the right candidate to build this domain knowledge.
- Able to engage credibly with data scientists, engineers and geoscientists, and to translate between technical and commercial contexts without losing fidelity in either direction.
- Customer focused mindset with the ability to balance customer needs, operational priorities, supportability and product strategy.
