About the Role
NTWIST is seeking an analytically minded Product Manager to join our Product team in Edmonton. This role is ideal for a mining professional or industry consultant who wants to apply operational expertise toward shaping the future of mining software.

You will work closely with the Senior Product Manager to define what NTWIST builds and why — translating real customer problems into clear product requirements, supporting go-to-market activities, and helping ensure our products deliver measurable value to mining operations.

Support feature prioritization in collaboration with the Senior Product Manager

Participate in UAT to validate that built features meet defined requirements

Contribute to product documentation and release communications

Required Skills
Business Analysis: Demonstrated ability to conduct structured interviews, document requirements, and write functional specifications or user stories

Communication: Ability to translate complex mining workflows into clear product language for both technical and non-technical audiences
