At OpenProject , we are building the leading open-source project management software, trusted by teams and organizations around the globe. To lead our product strategy and fuel our next phase of growth, we’re looking for a visionary, hands-on Head of Product who will shape the future of OpenProject and elevate our product to new heights.
Your Mission

• Product Strategy: Update and refine the product roadmap, structure the decision-making process, and drive data-based prioritization while balancing short-term needs with long-term innovation.
• Customer Focus: Strengthen relationships with key customers and integrate feedback into product decisions to identify opportunities for innovation and continuous improvement.
• Execution: Manage Product team to develop and iterate on products and features efficiently. Oversee the delivery of exceptional UX and design with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring design consistency and precision throughout the product.
• Collaboration: Work closely with internal and relevant external stakeholders to optimize product-market fit and adoption.

What You\’ll Bring

• Thorough experience in product management at a SaaS company paired with technical expertise in SaaS architecture, with a strong tech background.
• Deep customer insight, translating needs into impactful product decisions.
• Entrepreneurial mindset, balancing strategy with hands-on execution.
• Strong attention to detail, high-quality standards, and the ability to see tasks through to completion.
• You thrive in a mission-driven environment where open source, transparency, and impact matter and our OPENP core company values resonate strongly with you.
• Full fluency in German and English, with the ability to adapt communication to different target groups and contexts with strong remote communication skills.

What Awaits You

• The best of both worlds: the creative challenges and learning opportunities of a start-up combined with the financial stability of a “grown-up” company in a team of dedicated professionals.
• The flexibility to decide from where you would like to work: remotely in a location within 2 hours (time-zone) from Berlin, Germany.
• Contributing to an open-source project with high visibility and transparency within the developer world (our software code is freely available on Github).
• You will work alongside a team of experts in continuous delivery and integration processes who love to learn from each other.
• Once a year, we dedicate our \“Passion Time\“ off-site to work on any improvements of our choice with a business impact (e.g. product improvements, marketing concepts,…) in multi-disciplinary teams.
• Employee benefits such as job bikes and paid childcare.
• You will be in touch with exciting clients and users from all around the globe, including NGOs and other open source projects which we love to support in fulfilling their mission (such as Greenpeace, Engineers without Frontiers), corporates like Siemens, Deutsche Bahn or Audi and public institutions like German Federal Ministries.
