We are looking for a Senior Director of Product Management who will own the strategy, coordination, and execution for Clarivate’s portfolio of established (heritage) IP Management Software (IPMS) products.

About You – Experience, Education, Skills, And Accomplishments
* Bachelor’s Degree or Equivalent

* Proven success driving platform convergence, shared capability development, or portfolio‑level transformation initiatives
* Deep experience working with engineering teams on platform, integration, or AI‑driven product strategies
* Strong understanding of enterprise SaaS, integrations, and the operational realities of sustaining mature products while building toward a new future
What You'll Be Doing In This Role
* Own the end‑to‑end product strategy for the heritage IPMS portfolio, balancing near‑term client commitments with long‑term convergence objectives
* Define and execute a clear, multi‑year convergence strategy aligned with Clarivate’s IPMS and IPfolio direction, including migration paths, sequencing, and dependency management
* Establish portfolio‑level priorities and trade‑off decisions across products to ensure focus on the highest‑impact initiatives
* Act as the central strategic authority across the heritage IPMS portfolio, ensuring alignment on vision, roadmap themes, and investment focus
* Drive consistency in product decision‑making, roadmap structure, and success metrics across IPMS
* Partner with engineering and architecture leadership to align product strategy with standardized platform and solutioning principles
* Lead the coordination and adoption of AI‑enabled capabilities across IPMS, ensuring development follows a build‑once, reuse‑many model wherever possible
* Partner with AI platform teams to prioritize IPMS‑specific AI use cases and embed AI directly into client workflows rather than standalone tools
* Ensure consistent AI capability rollout, governance, and customer experience across heritage IPMS products
* Own the strategy for shared integration development across IPMS, including prioritization, sequencing, and reuse of connectors and integration frameworks
* Drive alignment between platform, product, and delivery teams to streamline integration development and reduce duplicated effort
* Ensure integrations are commercially viable, scalable, and aligned to convergence goals
* Identify and eliminate duplicative product and development efforts across IPMS
* Drive efficiency in roadmap delivery through shared components, common patterns, and aligned release planning
* Establish clear portfolio‑level OKRs and drive accountability for outcomes, not activity
* Serve as a senior product leader and trusted partner to IPMS product leaders, engineering leadership, sales, customer success, and professional services
* Communicate portfolio strategy, convergence progress, and trade‑offs clearly to executive leadership
* Support customer‑facing teams with consistent, confidence‑building messaging about product direction and future state
