The Head of Product & Engineering will lead Humara’s combined product and engineering organisation through a critical next stage of growth and change.
This role is accountable for shaping the product and engineering strategies, and turning strategy into high-quality, commercially impactful product outcomes, at pace. They will own product and engineering execution, shape a focused roadmap, and ensure our architecture, delivery practices and team model are built around measurable customer and revenue impact.
As Humara evolves to a fully AI-native operating model, this person will shape how we build: creating lean cross-functional teams, embedding AI-assisted engineering and quality practices, reducing handoffs, and building a culture of pace, ownership, technical excellence and accountability.
This is a hands-on leadership role, requiring someone who can operate close to the product, architecture, delivery and team-level execution, while providing credible leadership to the SLT, customers and wider business.
Responsibilities
- Work with the CEO and SLT to shape product and engineering strategies, ensuring the roadmap is commercially focused, technically credible and sharply prioritised.
- Own the product and engineering execution plan, translating strategy into a roadmap, technical priorities, measurable outcomes and disciplined delivery.
- Lead the end-to-end product development lifecycle - from ideation and specification through to build, test, release and iteration - ensuring speed and quality along the way.
- Ensure the platform, architecture, infrastructure and engineering practices are scalable, resilient, secure and capable of supporting high-volume enterprise customers.
- Design and lead a lean, AI-native product and engineering organisation: small cross-functional teams, fewer handoffs, AI-assisted coding and quality engineering, faster experimentation, clear ownership, strong technical standards and high accountability for outcomes.
- Partner closely with the Head of AI to ensure differentiating GenAI, classic machine learning and other data science solutions are effectively integrated into the product.
- Ensure complex technical trade-offs and product priorities are clearly understood by the senior leadership team and wider business.
- Define, monitor and report on the metrics that matter: product performance, platform health, delivery effectiveness, customer impact and commercial outcomes.
- Regularly engage with customers - ensuring the voice of the customer drives our decision making and building customer confidence in Humara’s roadmap and ability to create measurable value. This will be a hybrid role, with a minimum of two days a week in our Brighton office.
