Meet the team behind this journey
DeepL is at an inflection point: moving from a beloved translation tool to a full enterprise Language AI platform. The Business Acceleration Tech Area is at the heart of that shift: the engine behind how we grow, retain, and scale our customer base, from individual subscribers to Fortune 500 enterprises. Our mission is twofold:
1. Accelerate growth by maximising the number of people who buy DeepL and enabling customers to scale usage across large, complex organisations.
2. Provide robust platform capabilities that help other teams at DeepL ship enterprise-ready products and features faster and with confidence.
The area spans four tracks: Console, Identity, Monetization, and Business Acceleration, with dedicated product teams focused on end-to-end user journeys across onboarding, access management, billing and payments, internal platform enablement and go-to-market efficiency. As Group PM, you'll set the direction across all of them: setting strategy, coaching PMs, and driving the outcomes that make DeepL the Language AI platform that enterprises trust to scale.
Your responsibilities
Lead a high-performing product organisation
- Own and evolve the product strategy for the Business Acceleration Tech Area, connecting the dots across Console, Identity, Monetization, and Business Acceleration tracks into a cohesive, compelling vision
- Lead and coach a team of Product Managers, setting clear goals, building their product skills, and creating an environment where they do their best work
- Drive the org design and ways of working so teams have clear ownership, tight feedback loops, and deliver measurable impact
- Act as a domain expert and decision-maker on complex, cross-cutting topics, particularly around enterprise billing, identity & access management, and internal platform adoption
- Structure and drive complex, ambiguous decisions: defining options, trade-offs, and recommendations that stakeholders and executives can act on
- Communicate strategy clearly and concisely to diverse audiences, from engineering teams to C-suite stakeholders
Drive enterprise customer outcomes
- Own the strategy and roadmap for how large organisations onboard, manage teams, configure access, and scale DeepL usage across thousands of users
- Partner with Sales, Customer Success, and key accounts to understand enterprise requirements and build features that win competitive deals and reduce churn
- Develop and maintain scalable measurement tools (e.g. enterprise maturity scorecards, outcome-focused metrics) to track progress and communicate it to executive leadership and the board
Enable other product teams at DeepL
- Jointly with Engineering define and drive the platform strategy for how new DeepL products (Voice, future launches) integrate account, team management, and billing capabilities into their user experiences
- Collaborate across tracks with PMs and Track Directors to understand what teams need, identify reusable patterns, and help your teams drive adoption of the platform through value, not mandates
Qualities we look for
- 8+ years of product management experience, including time as a Group PM or Lead PM managing other PMs and multiple product teams simultaneously
- Able to hold the balance between customer-facing impact (deal-critical features, customer satisfaction) and platform investment (internal enablement, engineering leverage), and make the case for the right trade-off to both product and engineering stakeholders
- Strong B2B SaaS background, ideally with experience across both customer-facing enterprise products (identity, access, billing, admin) and internal platform/tooling work
- Experience building for large enterprises (Fortune 500 scale), with a track record of shipping features that unblock enterprise deals
- Platform thinking: you understand internal adoption challenges and know how to build capabilities that teams want to use
- Strong coaching and team leadership skills: you know how to develop PMs, set meaningful goals, and create clarity even when the problem space is complex
- Data-informed: you establish baseline metrics, validate hypotheses with evidence, and make decisions with incomplete information when needed
- Excellent communicator, both written and verbal, with the ability to adapt your style for engineering teams, executive audiences, and enterprise customers alike
- Comfortable influencing without authority: you can build trust with senior stakeholders, navigate competing priorities across teams, and drive alignment even when the path forward is contested

Our aim is to integrate your work with your lifestyle, ensuring a balance that respects both your needs and our operational requirements.
- Regular in-person team events: we bond over vibrant events that are as unique as our team, from local team and business unit gatherings, to new-joiner onboardings, to company-wide events that bring us all togetherโliterally.
- Monthly full-day hacking sessions: every month, we have Hack Fridays, where you can spend your time diving into a project you're passionate about and get the opportunity to work with other teamsโwe value your initiatives, impact, and creativity.
- Comprehensive health insurance: your health comes first. With our comprehensive insurance, we'll make sure you're covered from head to toe.
- 30 days of annual leave: we value your peace of mind. With 30 days off (excluding public holidays) and access to mental health resources, we make sure you're as strong mentally as you are professionally.
