HERE is looking for a Product Manager to join our Open Location Platform team, and help us define and deliver the next generation location-centric development environment – specifically focusing on leading and managing the Geospatial Enrichment function of the platform.  Located in the HERE Chicago, Seattle, Bay Area and/or Berlin offices, this PM will help us build best-in-class product functions that span platforms and screens, be directly responsible for cradle-to-grave product management, and the driving force behind a major part of the HERE Open Location Platform product stack.

This role requires a significant wide range of skills – including technical acumen, strong interpersonal skills, and a keen focus on shipping great products.
