Job description
As a Technical Product Manager at Neara, you will operate at the centre of a complex, evolving platform, coordinating multiple engineering teams to deliver initiatives that enable the next generation of solutions while strengthening our core capabilities.
Our platform sits at the intersection of geospatial data, large-scale computation, and real-world infrastructure modelling. As demand grows across customers, markets, and internal teams, so does the complexity of what we build, and how we prioritise and deliver it.
This role exists to bring clarity and execution discipline to that complexity. You will work closely with Tech Lead Managers, Engineering Directors, and Architects to ensure the right work is prioritised, aligned, and delivered; balancing new capability development with the reliability and scalability of the platform.
We’re open to exceptional Technical Product Managers at both mid and senior levels, and will calibrate the scope of the role to match your experience and growth trajectory.
Responsibilities
What you’ll do
- Identify and prioritise platform initiatives that strengthen core capabilities and enable new solutions
- Lead complex, cross-stream initiatives across multiple engineering teams and stakeholders
- Work closely with Tech Lead Managers, Engineering Directors, and Architects to shape solutions and drive execution
- Own prioritisation across competing demands, balancing new features, customer needs, production issues, and platform reliability
- Own end-to-end delivery across your area, managing dependencies, surfacing risks, and ensuring commitments are met
- Enable effective delivery within teams by shaping work, supporting sprint rituals, and maintaining delivery momentum
- Set the bar for product quality and reliability, holding engineering, design, and implementation to a high standard across the full delivery cycle
Job requirements
What success looks like
Within your first 6–12 months, you will have:
- Built a strong understanding of Neara’s platform, customers, and real-world use cases
- Established trusted relationships across engineering and cross-functional teams
- Taken ownership of key cross-team initiatives and delivered them to plan
- Improved prioritisation and delivery flow across teams, reducing friction and surfacing risks earlier
- Contributed to a more structured, scalable approach to how we plan and deliver platform work

- Experience maintaining product and platform health in live environments
- Strong judgment balancing short-term delivery with long-term sustainability
Influence & collaboration
- Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
- Experience coordinating across teams and influencing without authority
Characteristics we look for
- No-ego, outcome-oriented team players. We back each other and win together
- Comfortable operating in ambiguity and bringing structure where none exists
- Strong systems thinkers who can connect technical complexity to business outcomes
- Curious and technically engaged, motivated to deeply understand how things work
- Confident communicators who can influence engineers, executives, and customers alike
- Self-directed operators who take ownership and create momentum
- Pragmatic decision-makers who balance competing priorities and trade-offs effectively
