VP of Product Management
Granite Telecommunications is looking for a VP of Product Management to lead the product organization’s operational execution function. This role focuses on driving the delivery, deployment, adoption, and scaling of product features and services while ensuring effective coordination among various teams during product launches.
Responsibilities
Oversee and manage the implementation lifecycle of products and features: planning, requirements, development, testing, rollout, adoption, and post‑launch stabilization
Establish and own end‑to‑end processes, standards, and best practices for implementation (e.g. release schedules, deployment checklists, quality assurance, rollout plans)
Work with Product Managers, Project / Program Managers, Engineering, Operations, Customer Success, and Support to ensure alignment and timely execution
Ensure all functions (engineering, operations, QA, support, customer success, billing, legal/compliance) are coordinated during implementation
Mitigate risks, resolve blockers, and manage interdependencies across departments
Lead change management: ensure that teams affected by a new product / feature are prepared (training, documentation, process adjustments)
Develop scalable processes, tools and frameworks to support growth in product volume (more features, more customers, more geographies) without sacrificing quality or speed
Define and monitor implementation KPIs (on‑time delivery, defect rate, adoption rate, customer satisfaction, support escalations, etc)
Continuous process improvement: iterate on implementation workflows, feedback loops, retrospectives, lessons learned
Build and manage a high‑performing implementation team (e.g. Director / Senior Managers of Implementation / Deployment / Product Operations)
Mentor and grow leaders; ensure role clarity, training, performance metrics
Resource planning: balancing staffing, budgets, external vendors or partners if needed
While this role is execution‑focused, partner closely with Product Strategy to ensure implementation plans are feasible, aligned with roadmap commitments, resourced properly
Assist in planning product releases in a way that accommodates implementation constraints, market readiness, and customer needs
Anticipate and identify risks (technical, operational, regulatory, customer). Bring in mitigation plans early
Ensure adequate QA/testing, rollback plans, release validation before full rollouts
Ensure compliance with any regulatory or contractual obligations (especially for government or large enterprise customers)

Proven track record of leading and delivering large, complex product feature rollouts, deployments, or implementations
Deep understanding of operational processes, deployment workflows, post‑launch support, and scaling
Strong people leadership experience: managing mid‑senior managers, cross‑functional teams
Excellent communication, negotiation and stakeholder management skills; ability to work with clients, internal executives, technical and non‑technical teams
Strong analytical skills: ability to use data to drive decisions around implementation performance, defect rates, adoption, etc
Preferred
Experience in compliance, contracts, procurement
Familiarity with telecom protocols/products (voice, data, SD‑WAN, UCaaS, wireless) or managed services
