VP of Product
About Us
Prokeep is a software company that has developed a messaging platform for the $100+ billion wholesale distribution market (i.e. plumbing, electrical, HVAC, etc.). Our team is agile, nimble, and devoted to making our customers' lives easier with simple-to-use technology. We envision a world where distributors using our tools are more efficient and able to build stronger relationships with their customers. We are post product, post revenue and growing fast in the US and Canada.
Your Mission
The VP of Product will lead a team of product managers, analysts and designers with the goal of bringing Mission Control to Distributors. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to build products for a segment of the economy that is often overlooked by technology and transform the way work gets done for a significant portion of GDP in the US and the World.
To accomplish this goal, you will work closely with all company departments and customers to bring to market features or new products that will both increase customer value and company revenue. This will require that you be entrepreneurial, have experience leading product teams, and possess a unique blend of business and technical understanding to create, communicate and implement strategy based on facts and data.
VP of Product is a strategic role and you will work as part of the Exec Team to further the evolution of Prokeep from a proven single product to a platform of many products. Key to this evolution is product velocity. You must be able to evaluate and constantly improve the speed at which your team delivers additional value to our customers.
Is this you? If you think it is and you can command the big picture and the strategic plan, but also have the scrappy, can-do start-up sensibilities to roll up your sleeves and work on everything and anything to get the job done then you are right for this role.
