Aeris is looking for a senior technology leader who will drive our front-end user experiences in the age of GenAI. This is a unique role that covers all product areas including IoT Accelerator, IoT Watchtower, and Automotive Connected Vehicle Cloud. This VP role requires exceptional technical strength and a proven ability to innovate, shaping intelligent, user-centric experiences and embedding AI-driven insights to deliver impactful, differentiated solutions. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in enterprise User Experience, Front-end technologies, Data visualization, GenAI, IoT, and technology innovation, with a proven record of leading complex SaaS initiatives and transforming market needs into successful, forward-thinking, and actionable solutions.

Key Responsibilities :

Product Vision & Strategy

  • Define and evolve product vision across IoT Accelerator, Watchtower, and Mobility Suite.
  • Identify paths to embed AI / GenAI-driven capabilities, including anomaly detection, RAG-powered insights, and smart automation in connectivity & security flows.

UX Leadership

  • Architect and iterate UX for high-complexity SaaS interfaces—device / UI dashboards, analytics portals, and policy controls.
  • Champion a single pane of glass design, ensuring clarity across connectivity, eSIM, billing, and security modules.
  • GenAI Integration

  • Evaluate and embed AI / ML / GenAI solutions to enrich platform functions : cost optimization, threat insights, predictive alerts.
  • Innovate with use cases such as intent-based device policies, network anomaly detection, and automated workflows.
  • Cross-functional Leadership

  • Collaborate with engineering (cloud, security, APIs), data science, operations, design, and GTM teams.
  • Drive agile roadmap delivery, from prototypes through to global deployment across 30+ MNOs.
  • Lead front-end quality strategy, ensuring scalable automated testing (unit, integration, E2E) and GenAI-driven test automation across Aeris platforms.
  • Embed QA into CI / CD workflows and uphold accessibility and performance standards.
  • Market & User Insight

  • Research and prioritize use cases in verticals (fleet, energy, healthcare).
  • Engage with customers, partners (MNOs, OEMs), and internal stakeholders for empathy-driven feature definition.
  • Performance & Analytics

  • Define UX and product KPIs : adoption, task success rate, support load, and monetization through AI tools.
  • A / B test messaging, AI tips, and alerts; refine GenAI features for maximum ROI.
  • Minimum Requirements :

  • 15+ years in Product / Technical leadership (SaaS, enterprise B2B).
  • Deep experience with UX frameworks designing for complex enterprise SaaS products (including prototyping, user research).
  • Proven success operationalizing GenAI / ML capabilities / frameworks (e.g., OpenAI, Hugging Face) into live products—preferably in cybersecurity, analytics, or communications.
  • Cloud-native SaaS architecture (APIs, microservices, device management, security)
  • Analytics and data visualization (real-time insights, anomaly detection)
  • SAFe or similar scaled Agile frameworks, DevOps, and cross-functional technical leadership
  • Strong collaboration skills across technical and non‑technical teams; adept at translating user needs into product features.
  • Excellent communicator—executive-level storytelling, product pitches, and UX rationale.
  • Preferred Requirements :

  • Prior leadership in IoT SaaS, telecom, cloud, or security domains.
  • Understanding of cellular IoT, connectivity management, eSIM, device security, and API-based ecosystems (including protocols and standards e.g., MQTT, eSIM, secure onboarding)
  • Familiarity with AI ethics, zero-trust security, and relevant compliance. Aeris is an equal opportunity employer.
