About this role.
We’re hiring a Product Manager to own and scale Player ID, Teamworks‘ soccer talent identification product. Player ID builds on technology proven with elite clubs and helps teams turn complex player data into better scouting, recruitment, and squad-building decisions. I’m Paul Gagnon, Manager, Product at Teamworks.
This is a build-and-scale role with true ownership. You’ll bring an established product into the broader Teamworks platform, shape it for a wider global market, and work across Data Science, Software Engineering, Data Engineering, and go-to-market teams to turn sophisticated data into a product clubs can use and trust.
The Role
Own the end-to-end product development lifecycle for Player ID, from product strategy and prioritization through delivery, adoption, and iteration, with soccer as your core market
Partner with Data Science, Data Engineering, Data Product, and Product Engineering to turn complex player data and models into clear, actionable product experiences for clubs
Bring proven legacy capabilities into the Teamworks platform, shaping the product experience, roadmap, and packaging without starting from scratch
Work with Sales, Customer Success, and Product Success to understand the market, balance client feedback with a strong product point of view, and scale Player ID across global soccer markets
Engage directly with club analysts, scouts, and sporting directors to understand how they work and validate the product
What I’m Looking For
What You Must Bring
5+ years of professional product management experience owning and shipping a product used by external customers, ideally one with meaningful technical or data complexity
The technical fluency to engage credibly across the full product lifecycle, from raw data and models through APIs, workflows, and the front-end experience
Experience owning a product end to end in a B2B SaaS environment, from strategy and discovery through delivery and adoption
Strong product judgment and a history of taking ownership for outcomes, especially when information is incomplete and alignment must be built across teams
Ability to influence without authority and align data, engineering, and commercial partners around a clear product direction
Experience using product analytics (usage data, funnels, feature adoption, retention) to find insights and turn them into roadmap decisions, and to measure whether shipped work changed customer outcomes
Even Better If
You’ve taken a technical or data-rich product from one industry or customer segment and successfully adapted it to a new, specialized market
You have professional experience with soccer and have built products to inform how how clubs use data to make scouting, talent identification, recruitment, or squad planning decisions
You’ve worked in a startup or growth-stage environment where you influenced without authority, navigated ambiguity, and moved quickly with limited structure
You have real world experience using AI tools to improve/empower your own product work (discovery, specs, analysis, prototyping)
Why This Role
Player ID is not a greenfield idea waiting to be validated. It builds on a product already used by elite clubs and on Teamworks’ proven experience supporting player personnel decisions in other sports. You’ll have the opportunity to own the product end to end, shape how complex soccer data becomes useful to clubs, and scale it into a broader global market where the competitive advantage of data is still being defined.

Sample interview questions
I would evaluate requests against target customer segments, strategic fit, expected customer and business impact, technical effort, and supporting usage evidence. I would communicate the decision framework transparently, validate assumptions with representative clubs, and define measurable outcomes before committing delivery capacity.
I would begin with contextual research into the users' decisions, workflows, and confidence barriers. Then I would work with data and design partners to expose interpretable signals, provide appropriate drill-down detail and methodology context, and validate prototypes with users before measuring adoption and decision impact after release.
I would use a metric hierarchy that includes activation, feature adoption among target roles, repeated usage, workflow completion, retention, and qualitative confidence from clubs. I would also define a feature-specific outcome metric, such as the share of scouting decisions or shortlists meaningfully informed by the capability.
I create a shared problem statement, customer evidence, desired outcomes, and explicit trade-offs early. Regular decision forums, written product briefs, transparent prioritization, and clear ownership help partners understand both the rationale and their role in achieving the outcome.
I would first identify what is genuinely reusable in the existing product and where local market workflows, data availability, terminology, or buying dynamics require adaptation. I would sequence discovery with a representative set of clubs, launch focused pilots, measure value and usability, and scale only after validating repeatable product-market fit.
