About Black Spectacles
Black Spectacles is the leader in architecture and design services, with a thriving business and an incredible opportunity for continued growth. Our culture is built on curiosity, collaboration, and a relentless focus on creating value for customers. Role Overview
As Head of Product, you will partner closely with the CEO to shape and execute the roadmap for our SaaS‑based online learning platform and eLearning products. You bring analytical rigor and a thoughtful, straightforward communication style. You listen deeply, anticipate risks, and organize complex problems into clear, actionable steps. You’ll play a key role in turning strategy into action by partnering across teams to deliver products that create measurable impact for customers and drive business growth. Responsibilities
Product Strategy & Roadmap Define and sequence priorities with clear business cases (ROI, cost, and time‑to‑value) and establish a regular review cadence. Own customer insight—build a consistent discovery rhythm through customer calls, surveys, and experiments, and communicate insights clearly and practically across teams. Develop, prioritize, and maintain the product roadmap in collaboration with stakeholders. Requirements & Documentation Define clear, testable requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria in JIRA and related tools that reflect customer insight and business outcomes. Collaborate with design and engineering to scope features and ensure alignment with customer needs. Execution & Delivery Strengthen structure through launch plans, checklists, and decision logs to support collaboration and predictable delivery. Track leading indicators and post‑launch results, communicating lessons learned and next steps. Partner with Engineering to ensure timely, high‑quality product releases. Apply the right delivery approach for each initiative, drawing on experience with both Agile and Waterfall methodologies. Collaborate with Marketing and Sales to coordinate product launches, communications, and go‑to‑market strategies. Cross‑Team Collaboration Build alignment and trust across Engineering, Learning, Marketing, Sales, and Leadership through clear, data‑informed communication. Ensure alignment on priorities, timelines, and success metrics. Serve as a strong advocate for the customer while balancing business needs. Mentor and coach an early career teammate on discovery, backlog management, and outcome‑driven planning. Business & Financial Accountability Favor small, testable experiments before large investments. Make disciplined trade‑offs between opportunity, effort, and business impact, presenting clear ROI or payback expectations. Proactively surface constraints and mitigation plans. Requirements
Bachelor’s degree in Business, Computer Science, or a related field, or equivalent experience. 12+ years of professional experience, including 8+ years in product management roles. Proven success owning and scaling SaaS‑based products, ideally in online learning or related industries. Experience working effectively in both Agile and Waterfall environments. Strong track record of delivering measurable customer and business impact through product strategy and execution. Deep financial literacy (ROI, unit economics, payback) with a disciplined, results‑oriented approach to decision‑making. Experience leading customer discovery and translating insights into actionable product direction. Skilled with analytics tools (e.g., Mixpanel, Amplitude, GA) to guide decisions and measure outcomes. Effective collaborator who builds trust across Sales, Marketing, Engineering, Content, and Leadership. Excellent communication and influencing skills to align stakeholders and drive execution. Experience mentoring or coaching product team members is a plus. Ability to travel quarterly for in‑person meetings and company events. Benefits
