Cognite operates at the forefront of industrial digitalization, building AI and data solutions that solve some of the world’s hardest, highest-impact problems. With unmatched industrial heritage and a comprehensive suite of AI capabilities, including low-code AI agents, Cognite accelerates the digital transformation to drive operational improvements.

Our moonshot is bold: unlock $100B in customer value by 2035 and redefine how global industry works.




What Cognite is Relentless to achieve

We thrive in challenges. We challenge assumptions. We execute with speed and ownership. If you view obstacles as signals to step forward - not step back - you’ll feel at home here. Join us in this venture where AI and data meet ingenuity, and together, we forge the path to a smarter, more connected industrial future.

 

How you’ll demonstrate Ownership

  • Breaking down the requirements with the Product Manager and Tech Lead, turning them into execution pieces and finding the right sequence 
  • Managing schedule, timelines, and milestones (i.e. Alpha, Beta, and GA)
  • Driving the tradeoffs between usability, Go To Market (GTM) lead time, features scope, technical debt/investment (i.e. across UX/PM/Tech/GTM) to maximize value for our customers and Cognite
  • Drive end-to-end alignment from sales to delivery, security, and support
  • Managing internal and external dependencies arising from end-to-end alignment
  • Managing budgeting and resource needs
  • Managing in-market product performance in scope of the program (e.g. usage metrics, cost drivers, required delivery effort, as well as quality, reliability, security etc.), ensuring those metrics are measured, reported, reviewed and acted upon 
 

The Impact you bring to Cognite

  • Good system design skills or understanding (e.g. components architecture, scaling mechanisms, load balancing, rate limiting etc.)
  • Experience in running complex, cross-discipline and cross-department programs
  • Strong influencing skills: influencing without power (none will report to you), i.e. using different influencing skills and establishing your authority 
  • Structured, thorough and detail oriented
  • Genuine interest in or direct experience on the full product lifecycle (product strategy, sales, delivery, adoption, support, sunsetting)
 
Required Qualifications
  • Must have experience from a SaaS company at scale
  • Must have software development experience (any language) in developing, testing, deploying code for a software product

 

Preferred Experience

  • Technical MSc degree or proven technical hands-on experience
  • Experience in leading and managing Product Development teams, running sprints, scrums, making scoping tradeoffs and discussing technical options with Tech Leads and architects
