Description
Breadcrumb is a construction tool built for the people who actually build things. We replace paper-based processes with a digital tool that makes worksites safer, more connected and more compliant - in real time, in workers' hands.
From a 15-person start-up four years ago to a global team of 80+ with offices in Melbourne, London and San Francisco, we now serve over 1,000 construction companies and 1.5 million workers across ANZ, the UK, Ireland and North America. We're moving fast and we're looking for people who thrive in that environment.
The role
You'll own new product domains from the ground up defining the vision, standing up a squad, and delivering the data and integration capabilities that unlock the next phase of Breadcrumb's platform. This is a true 0→1 role: no inherited roadmap, no established playbook. Just a clear problem space, a talented engineering team, and real commercial stakes.
Sitting at the intersection of customer, business, and technology, you'll ensure our products are intuitive, scalable, and commercially impactful. You'll own everything from APIs and third-party integrations to reporting, analytics, and AI-powered insights.
What you'll be doing
Define the vision, strategy, and success metrics for core products working closely with leadership to set direction
Run structured discovery, customer interviews, problem mapping, prototype validation, and A/B tests to uncover insights, validate problem statements, and identify new opportunities
Translate insights into clear requirements, hypotheses, and prioritised roadmaps that balance technical constraints, platform foundations, and customer-facing value
Establish and lead a new product and engineering squad, shaping how the team works and delivers from day one
Partner with Engineering to plan, scope, and ship scalable, API-driven solutions built for long-term growth
Work alongside the Global Partnerships Manager to identify, prioritise, and deliver integrations with key construction platforms like Procore, Autodesk, Aconex, Workato, and Zapier
Define and deliver data products including dashboards, analytics, and AI-powered insights that drive real customer and business value
Facilitate cross-functional alignment across Product, Engineering, Design, Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success to ensure go-to-market readiness for every launch
Use data, analytics, customer feedback, and experimentation to guide decisions, measure outcomes, and continuously iterate
Communicate trade-offs, progress, and product direction clearly to senior stakeholders and the wider business
Stay across SaaS, construction tech, and product trends to keep Breadcrumb ahead of the curve
