Job Description

<p><h3>AVP, Product Management - Core User Experience (Remote)</h3>
<h3>Who we are:</h3>
<p>Geotab ® is a global leader in IoT and connected transportation and certified “Great Place to Work™.” We are a company of diverse and talented individuals who work together to help businesses grow and succeed, and increase the safety and sustainability of our communities.</p>
<p>Geotab is advancing security, connecting commercial vehicles to the internet and providing web-based analytics to help customers better manage their fleets. Geotab’s open platform and Geotab Marketplace ®, offering hundreds of third‑party solution options, allows both small and large businesses to automate operations by integrating vehicle data with their other data assets. Processing billions of data points a day, Geotab leverages data analytics and machine learning to improve productivity, optimise fleets through reduction of fuel consumption, enhance driver safety and achieve strong compliance to regulatory changes.</p>
<p>Our team is growing and we’re looking for people who follow their passion, think differently and want to make an impact. Ours is a fast paced, ever changing environment. Geotabbers accept that challenge and are willing to take on new tasks and activities – ones that may not always be described in the initial job description. Join us for a fulfilling career with opportunities to innovate, great benefits, and an inclusive work culture. Reach your full potential with Geotab.</p>
<h3>Who you are:</h3>
<p>We are always looking for amazing talent who can contribute to our growth and deliver results! As the AVP of Core User Experience, you are a product executive who understands that for the customer, the Interface is the Product. You possess a deep intuition for SaaS application lifecycles and view the “glass” – the user‑facing layer – as the primary driver of value, adoption, and customer satisfaction, not merely a wrapper for data.</p>
<p>You thrive on bringing order to complexity. You understand that in a vast ecosystem like Geotab’s, the “Core” must be the strongest part of the user journey. You are a systems thinker who can balance the need for rigid consistency (in Navigation, Headers, and Admin tools) with the flexibility required by vertical product teams. You are a leader of leaders, capable of mentoring a team of Senior and Principal Product Managers. You know how to bridge the gap between Design aspirations and Engineering realities, championing modern frontend architectures (like React) and Design Systems to create a “Paved Road” that accelerates the entire organization.</p>
<h3>What you'll do:</h3>
<p>You will own the strategic vision and execution for the foundational application layers of MyGeotab (Web) and Geotab Drive (Mobile). You will lead the portfolio that binds the Geotab ecosystem together, ensuring a seamless, high‑quality, and performant experience for millions of users.</p>
<p>You will manage and align a team of product leaders responsible for the “front‑of‑house” functionality: Asset Management, Map Interfaces, Global Navigation, Rules Engines, and Onboarding. Your mandate is to ensure these shared components are intuitive, scalable, and best‑in‑class. You will partner closely with the AVP of Product Design to rationalise a complex roadmap, driving the transition from legacy interfaces to modern, responsive frameworks. You will also oversee the strategy for Mobile, ensuring experience continuity between the web platform and the driver app. Ultimately, you will be responsible for defining what “Quality” looks like in the Geotab user experience and establishing the SaaS metrics to measure it.</p>
<h3>How you'll make an impact:</h3>
<p>Define the roadmap for the Core UX portfolio, prioritising high‑impact shared components (Menu, Dashboard, Maps) that serve the entire enterprise.</p>
<p>Lead, coach, and develop a high‑performing team of Product Managers (including Mobile and Core UX streams), fostering a culture of user‑centricity and rapid iteration.</p>
<p>Establish and own the metrics for UX quality (e.g., Time‑to‑Task, System Usability Scores), ensuring the application layer meets the standards of a modern SaaS platform.</p>
<p>Oversee the product strategy for both the MyGeotab web platform and the Geotab Drive mobile app, ensuring a consistent level of quality, performance, and brand alignment across all user touchpoints.</p>
<p>Partner with Engineering Directors to drive the migration to modern frontend frameworks (e.g., React) and champion the adoption of the internal Design System.</p>
<p>Act as the “voice of the user” in executive forums, balancing the technical needs of the platform with the commercial requirements of vertical solutions (Safety, Sustainability).</p>
<h3>What you'll bring to the role:</h3>
<ul>
<li>10‑12 years in product management, with a specific focus on SaaS applications and User Experience.</li>
<li>8+ years of leadership experience, with a proven track record of managing managers and leading complex product organisations.</li>
<li>Post‑secondary Diploma/Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Business, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.</li>
<li>Master’s Degree in a related field or an MBA is highly valued.</li>
<li>Deep understanding of frontend product lifecycles. You must have experience managing products where the UI/UX is a core differentiator (e.g., Admin Portals, Dashboards, Map‑based tools).</li>
<li>Strong familiarity with modern frontend technologies (React, React Native, mobile frameworks) and Design System governance. Note: This is not a backend data infrastructure role.</li>
<li>Experience using data to drive behavioural change and product improvements (e.g., A/B testing, user journey analysis).</li>
<li>Entrepreneurial mindset and comfortable in a flat organisation.</li>
</ul>
<p>Even if you don’t meet every requirement, we encourage you to apply.</p>
