The
Global Product Manager (Director) - Brady Enterprise Platform is responsible for owning the strategy, roadmap, and commercial execution of Brady's strategic software platform. Brady Enterprise Platform is the foundation on which Brady's current and future software products will be built - providing common services such as identity, billing, RBAC, device integration, customer-system integration, APIs, and data services so that every Brady software product is built on the platform rather than next to it. This role is the single accountable business owner of the platform: defining what Brady Enterprise Platform is, what it is not, how it is funded, how it is adopted across Brady's BUs, and how it is sold and integrated into customer environments. The Global Product Manager partners closely with R&D leadership (who own the technical execution and architecture of the platform), Workstation Cloud and other BU product leaders, Sales, and customers - translating business needs into platform requirements that accelerate Brady's broader software journey.
- Platform Strategy & Roadmap: Own the global Brady Enterprise Platform product strategy and multi-year roadmap. Define what the platform delivers, in what sequence, and how each release moves Brady's software business forward. Adjudicate competing demands from BUs and translate them into a coherent platform roadmap.
- Build vs. Buy Decisions: Lead the business-side build-vs-buy decisions for platform components - identity, billing, observability, integration platforms, and other commodity infrastructure. Partner with the CTO and R&D to ensure Brady builds only what is genuinely differentiating and buys what is commodity.
- BU Adoption & Internal Customer Success: Treat Brady's BU engineering and product teams as Brady Enterprise Platform's internal customers. Drive adoption of the platform across Brady software products.
- Customer & Channel Engagement: Develop deep understanding of how Brady's customers integrate software into their enterprise environments - ERP, MES, HIS, EH&S, and adjacent systems. Partner with Sales and customer-facing leaders to ensure Brady Enterprise Platform supports the integration patterns customers actually require.
- Commercial Execution: Own Brady Enterprise Platform's P&L view, and pricing posture. Build the business cases that govern annual gate reviews and scaling decisions.
- Cross-Functional Leadership: Partner closely with R&D leadership, Business Leaders, Product Managers, Sales, Marketing, and Operations. Serve as the connective tissue between technical execution (owned by R&D) and commercial outcomes (owned by the business).
- Product Culture: Champion rigorous product management discipline within the platform team and across Brady's broader software portfolio. Set the bar for how product decisions are made, documented, and communicated.
- Contribute to Software Leadership: As a key member of Brady's software leadership group, align Brady Enterprise Platform strategy with Brady's broader software portfolio vision and growth priorities.
