Director/Senior Director, Product Management

ABOUT CIVILGRID

CivilGrid is the trusted civil design platform powering affordable infrastructure renewal and growth. We give utilities, civil engineers, and municipalities a single, collaborative source of truth for what's underground so teams can plan, design, and build faster, smarter, and safer.

Our platform consolidates utility records, geotechnical and environmental data, paving moratoriums, and jurisdictional requirements directly from 3,000+ utilities, agencies, and municipalities with full chain-of-custody documentation. Teams at PG&E, Mark Thomas, and dozens of leading engineering firms use CivilGrid to cut research time by up to 88%, reduce project costs, prevent dig-ins, and accelerate delivery on the projects that keep communities running.

We're a venture-backed Series A startup tackling a $4.7T US infrastructure market that has been underserved by software for decades. Founded by industry insiders, each with 10+ years in utilities and civil engineering, we move fast, ship work that matters, and stay close to the customers and field teams we build for.

WHY THIS ROLE

As Director/Senior Director of Product Management at CivilGrid, you’ll partner closely with our Head of Product to bring focus and momentum to a key part of our product line. This is a player-coach role: you’ll own the roadmap for our category-defining platform end to end, work side-by-side with engineering to drive execution, and lead a small team of PMs shipping alongside you. We’re looking for a builder who can envision customer workflow solutions one hour and go deep on technical detail with our engineers the next - and who’s energized by getting product into customer’s hands fast.

This role reports to the Head of Product. It is a hybrid role with expectations that you are working from our Boston, MA office at least 2 days per week if hired. We are only considering candidates in the Greater Boston area at this time .

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Own the roadmap for your product area end to end — from customer discovery and validation through launch, iteration, and measurement

• Partner with the Head of Product to translate company strategy into a focused, prioritized plan for your area, and represent that plan to the leadership team

• Partner closely with engineering as a true thought partner: drive execution, work through trade-offs, and ship on fast cycles

• Stay close to our customers to deeply understand their workflows and the decisions our platform needs to power

• Lead and grow a small team of PMs: hire, mentor, and manage while staying hands-on in the work yourself

• Champion a default-to-shipping culture: get product into customers' hands fast, then learn and iterate

WHAT YOU'LL BRING

• 8+ years of product management experience, including 4+ years as a people manager

• You’ve shipped multiple iterations of successful B2B products

• You can go deep on technical detail with engineers and zoom out to strategy with executives in the same hour

• Start up ready - you’re autonomous, move fast, and take initiative without being asked

• You default to shipping - you'd rather get something in front of users this month than perfect it for next quarter

BONUS POINTS

• Bonus: prior industry experience in Utilities, Construction, or Engineering Firms

• Bonus: prior experience building a workflow platform

• Bonus: a degree in Civil Engineering, or a business degree (MBA)

HOW WE WORK

We're a small, but rapidly growing team that ships. Expect direct feedback, real ownership from day one, and proximity to customers — huge utilities, public agencies, and engineering firms whose work depends on what we build. We default to in-person collaboration where it matters and remote-friendly flexibility otherwise. We hire people who care deeply about their craft and the communities our customers serve.
