  • Conducting in-depth research and discovery to define and validate product requirements, with a focus on AI integration.

  • Crafting detailed user stories and specifications that drive development.

  • Prioritizing the product backlog using data-driven insights and strategic thinking.

  • Championing the integration of AI capabilities to enhance payroll processes and user experience.

About You

We’re seeking a forward-thinking Product Manager in Chennai with a strong technical foundation and a passion for leveraging AI to solve complex problems.

Basic Qualifications

  • Bachelor's in Business Administration, or a related field.

  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in product management, business analysis, or a related role within a SaaS or technology-driven environment.

  • Proven experience working with Agile methodologies.

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to translate complex requirements into actionable plans.

Our Approach to Flexible Work
 

With Flex Work, we’re combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.

What you need to know about the Chennai Tech Scene

To locals, it's no secret that South India is leading the charge in big data infrastructure. While the environmental impact of data centers has long been a concern, emerging hubs like Chennai are favored by companies seeking ready access to renewable energy resources, which provide more sustainable and cost-effective solutions. As a result, Chennai, along with neighboring Bengaluru and Hyderabad, is poised for significant growth, with a projected 65 percent increase in data center capacity over the next decade.
