The Role
We are looking for a Vice President of Product to direct the strategy for our public sector-facing integrated hardware and software ecosystems and to transform the ethos of how product is driven at BusPatrol. You will oversee the development of complex, edge-deployed technology, including cameras, IoT devices, and software, while building AI and machine learning capabilities into the core product suite. As a key executive, you will rely on data to guide the product organization and align the executive team and Board of Directors around a clear roadmap for growth. This role combines hands-on work with our evolving, active products and leadership of a team of Product Managers across a number of active and emerging product lines.
Key Responsibilities
· Drive the product vision and strategy, unifying physical hardware (cameras, vision systems, IoT, robotics) with software platforms and AI/ML ecosystems, and reset how product is driven at BusPatrol around clear ownership, evidence-based decisions, and agile delivery.
· Manage the complete product lifecycle from New Product Introduction (NPI) and conceptualization through manufacturing, commercial deployment, and end-of-life, with privacy and regulatory requirements built in from the start and clear standards for testing products in flight.
· Manage and scale the product organization, balancing technical execution with strategic leadership and operational rigor, and sustaining a high product launch velocity.
· Use data and analytics to shape product direction, prioritize development, manage product P&L, and deliver evidence-based recommendations to the executive team and Board of Directors.
· Partner with Sales, Marketing, and Operations to define go-to-market strategies, pricing, positioning, and target market segments.
· Build consensus across hardware engineering, software engineering, supply chain, and commercial teams with conviction, persuasion, and a low-ego approach.
· Gather market and competitive intelligence to anticipate trends in edge computing, computer vision, and IoT to ensure the portfolio remains competitive.
Qualifications
· 12+ years of tenured product leadership experience as an agile leader, with a track record of building complex technologies, managing teams, and delivering commercial success across different product verticals and sectors. Able to transform how product is driven in an organization.
· Domain expertise in hardware product development (e.g., cameras, IoT, robotics or similar technology domains) combined with the software and cloud platforms that power them, with experience in regulated environments and privacy-conscious product development.
· Experience in New Product Introduction (NPI), taking hardware devices from R&D prototypes to mass production and global deployment, and developing standards for testing products in flight.
· History of using AI to build products and commercializing Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence technologies within integrated hardware and software ecosystems.
· Business and financial acumen, with experience managing product margins, pricing strategies, and revenue growth.
· Executive presence with the ability to lead with data, advocate for strategic direction, and influence board decisions while remaining grounded and collaborative.
· Ability to recruit, retain, and develop product managers in competitive tech markets, and to lead organizations with high product launch velocity.
· Advanced degree (MS, MBA, or PhD) in Engineering, Computer Science, Business, or a related discipline.
