Position: Director, Product (Platform)
Location: Germany

We are seeking a transformational platform product leader to unify Teamworks’ multi-product environment into a single, modern operating system. In this role, you’ll guide the architecture, standards, and shared services that connect our products, accelerate engineering velocity, and unlock cross-product opportunities across the organization.

This is an exciting opportunity to step into a highly visible, high-leverage role where your work will directly influence company-wide architecture, empower dozens of teams, and shape how athletes, coaches, and organizations experience Teamworks for years to come.

Game Plan - How You'll Drive Impact:
  • Lead Platform Consolidation: Drive the creation of Teamworks’ unified technical foundation, including a centralized identity system, shared schemas, common design system, and reusable APIs to unify our multi-product ecosystem.
  • Accelerate Unified Mobile App & Unified Web Execution: Partner across Product and Engineering to stabilize the UMA rollout and define a durable unified web strategy that enables shared components, frameworks, and long‑term governance.
  • Build Cross-Product Integration Standards: Establish platform-wide patterns for Product-to-Product APIs, service contracts, integration governance, documentation, and the elimination of one-off approaches.
  • Enable New Product Capabilities: Ensure emerging products can build rapidly on a shared platform, supporting unified data, strong service ownership, and seamless frontend and backend integration.
  • Architect AI Infrastructure: Partner with Intelligence and AI teams to develop scalable data pipelines, feature stores, ML Ops foundations, and inference patterns that unlock model-driven features across the ecosystem.
  • Ship a Robust API Platform: Deliver a unified API gateway with consistent authentication, rate limiting, observability, and source‑of‑truth domain ownership that powers both internal and third‑party integrations.
Player Profile - What You Bring to the Team:
  • Software & Product Background: 8+ years in software/product development, ideally in growth-stage or late-stage startups
  • Proven Platform Leadership: 5+ years leading platform, shared services, data, or API product teams in B2B SaaS, with a track record of centralizing capabilities across autonomous teams.
  • Leadership & Influence: 5+ years managing Product Managers and building high-performing technical product organizations. Demonstrated success driving adoption of platform services across teams by building trust, credibility, and alignment.
  • Technical Fluency: Deep understanding of distributed systems, data modeling, streaming/ETL pipelines, microservices, and API/service contract design (REST/Graph

    QL).
  • Strategic Product Thinking: Ability to translate business needs into platform roadmaps, define source‑of‑truth ownership, and tie infrastructure investments to measurable business outcomes.
  • Systems Integration: Experience unifying acquired products, consolidating redundant systems, and bringing data and services together into a cohesive platform.
