Principal Product Manager

Job Description

Where engineering brilliance meets product craft.

Formula 1 is the world's most technologically advanced sport, and behind every strategic call and trackside tool sits a product built to give Williams F1 Racing the edge. We're looking for a Principal Product Manager to take on the most complex, highest-impact technology initiatives within our Technology Innovation Group (TIG), spanning race strategy and performance, trackside and engineering tools, commercial and fan platforms, and our internal data platform.

This is the most senior individual-contributor product role in TIG. You won't have direct reports, but you'll set the standard for product craft across the whole function, working hands-on to take our biggest bets from ambiguous problem through to measurable impact.

What you'll do:

• Lead end-to-end delivery of TIG's most complex, cross-domain technology products, from discovery through launch and ongoing iteration
• Define and own product vision, strategy, and roadmaps that connect technology investment to on-track performance and commercial outcomes
• Partner with engineering, design, data science, and trackside teams to translate ambiguous problems into well-scoped, deliverable products
• Prioritise competing demands across multiple concurrent projects, making clear trade-off calls on scope, timing, and value
• Engage senior stakeholders across the business to secure alignment, manage expectations, and remove blockers
• Establish product discovery practices, including user research, problem validation, and data analysis, to make sure the right products get built
• Define success metrics for every product, and instrument delivery to measure impact and keep improving
• Champion the responsible, effective use of AI across TIG's product portfolio, raising the team's capability to build and adopt AI-enabled products
• Coach and mentor other product managers, setting the bar for product craft across the Group

 

Qualifications

What you'll bring:

• Extensive product management experience (typically 10+ years), with a track record of personally delivering complex technology products end to end
• Demonstrated success across more than one domain, for example data platforms, performance or analytics tools, customer or fan-facing platforms, or operational and engineering software
• Experience operating as a senior individual contributor, influencing and delivering through teams without direct line management
• Strong commercial and technical judgement, and the credibility to work alongside engineering and data science teams on architecture and trade-offs
• Experience in motorsport, high-performance engineering, real-time data, or sports technology is desirable but not essential
• A genuine interest in using AI to accelerate product discovery, research, and delivery
