The Role
ADI is seeking a Director of Product Management to lead product strategy and execution for a portfolio of enterprise AI agents and assistants. Reporting to the Head of Enterprise AI, this leader will build and develop a high-performing team of product managers and establish a consistently high standard for product thinking, written requirements, prioritization, and partnership with science and engineering.
The role will own the vision, roadmap, and investment choices for enterprise agents and assistants. It will determine which use cases ADI should pursue, sequence, defer, or decline, grounding those decisions in business value, user needs, technical feasibility, risk, and the evolving capabilities of AI. The role will serve as the bridge between business stakeholders and delivery teams, translating real workflows and pain points into clear requirements, success criteria, and executable scope.
This is a strategically important role in ADI's Enterprise AI agenda. It will ensure that AI investment is directed toward valuable, adoptable products with measurable outcomes, and that launches are supported by effective alignment, communication, and change management across the organization.

- Develop the team's ability to work credibly with data science, ML engineering, software engineering, design, and business stakeholders.
- Create clear accountability, career development, and operating mechanisms that enable the team to perform consistently at a high level.
Agent & Assistant Product Strategy
Define the vision, portfolio strategy, and roadmap for enterprise agents and assistants, making disciplined choices about where ADI should invest.
- Establish a clear product vision and multi-horizon roadmap for a portfolio of enterprise AI agents and assistants.
- Decide which use cases to pursue, sequence later, defer, or decline based on user value, business impact, technical feasibility, risk, and cost.
- Distinguish between capabilities that can be delivered reliably today and those that depend on emerging technical maturity.
- Maintain a coherent portfolio view that balances near-term delivery with longer-term platform and capability development.
Business Partnership & Product Definition
Build active partnerships with business stakeholders and convert real workflows and pain points into precise product direction.
- Lead discovery with business stakeholders and users to understand workflows, decisions, pain points, constraints, and unmet needs.
- Translate insights into crisp product requirements, success criteria, scope, user journeys, and acceptance conditions.
- Ensure science and engineering teams can execute without repeated reinterpretation by resolving ambiguity early and documenting decisions clearly.
- Challenge requests constructively, separating underlying user problems from proposed solutions and avoiding low-value or poorly defined use cases.
Impact Measurement & Portfolio Decisions
Define how product success is measured, reviewed, and used to redirect investment across the Enterprise AI portfolio.
- Establish a balanced product scorecard covering adoption, task completion, user trust and satisfaction, grounding, relevance, and other quality measures.
- Connect product performance to business outcomes such as time saved, productivity improvement, cost avoided, risk reduced, or service quality improved.
- Run a regular review cadence that makes progress, underperformance, risk, and learning visible to product teams and executives.
- Use performance evidence and user feedback to scale successful products, adjust roadmaps, improve weak experiences, or stop investments that are not delivering value.
Cross-Functional Product Delivery
Create alignment across the functions required to design, build, launch, and improve enterprise AI products.
- Drive shared priorities and decisions across data science, engineering, design, content, platform, data, security, legal, and go-to-market or enablement teams.
- Lead product planning from discovery through requirements, build, evaluation, release readiness, launch, and iteration.
- Clarify ownership, dependencies, decision rights, and trade-offs so teams can move quickly without compromising quality or responsible AI expectations.
- Communicate roadmap choices, delivery progress, constraints, and risks clearly to executives and other stakeholders.
Launch, Adoption & Change Management
Ensure that shipped products are understood, adopted, and incorporated into the workflows they are intended to improve.
- Own launch planning and coordinate readiness across product, technology, content, communications, enablement, support, and business teams.
- Define target users, rollout sequencing, adoption plans, feedback channels, and support requirements for each launch.
- Partner with business leaders and change teams to embed agents and assistants into real workflows rather than treating release as the end point.
- Use adoption and usage evidence to identify friction, refine the experience, strengthen enablement, and improve product value over time.
