Product Lead / Product Manager (path to CPO)

Embedded Developer Tools / B2B SaaS

Percepio is a Swedish software product company in embedded software observability. We build tools that help developers understand the runtime behavior of complex embedded and RTOS-based systems — from development and test to deployed devices in the field. We are a small, senior team with strong technology, global customers, and clear growth ambitions. We are now looking for a Product Lead / Product Manager to help us become an even more scalable and product-driven company

The role

You will work closely with our CEO and CTO/founder to strengthen a structured, transparent, and scalable product function. This role combines strategic judgment with hands-on execution. We are not looking for a distant strategist, but for someone who wants to learn the product deeply, understand users in context, and turn that into better product decisions and stronger execution.

What we expect you to do

• Lead a lean product cadence from discovery and prioritization to delivery follow-up
• Turn customer and market input into clear roadmap decisions and execution plans
• Improve planning transparency and cross-functional alignment
• Tighten feedback loops with prospects, users, partners, and key accounts
• Support selected technical pre-sales and product/market-fit conversations
• Help build a scalable product function and reduce founder bottlenecks over time

What we are looking for

• Product leadership experience in B2B software
• Strong technical credibility and good execution habits
• Ability to run planning and prioritization in a resource-constrained environment
• Ability to understand customer use cases deeply and translate them into product requirements
• Comfort validating new functionality, supporting demos, and collecting structured feedback
• Hands-on software development background
• Excellent written and verbal English

Especially relevant backgrounds

• Developer tools, infrastructure software, embedded systems, or other deep-engineering products
• Product Manager / Product Owner roles close to engineering and users
• Software quality, testing, CI/CT, or related infrastructure
• Embedded systems, RTOS environments, semiconductor-adjacent ecosystems, or technical B2B buying journeys

Why join Percepio?

• Key role in a company with strong technology and global relevance
• Genuine opportunity to shape product direction and operating model
• Close collaboration with senior leadership
• Small, high-trust team with short decision paths
• Clear path to broader product leadership and, for the right person, progression into a CPO role

Location: Västerås / hybrid. Ideal candidate is based in the Mälardalen region and can work with us regularly on site.

Start: As soon as possible, ideally during Q2 2026
