We have a big vision of the future of technology in the tourism industry, and we're excited to be part of shaping it. We are looking for creative and highly skilled individuals to join our team and help us on our way to becoming an innovative leader in our industry.As a Senior Product & Delivery Manager at Zaui, you will be the operating engine of our domain-based product model - ensuring we solve the right problems, in the right domains, with clear specifications, ownership and execution discipline, so that prioritized work reliably moves from signal to customer outcome. You'll combine product judgement, technical fluency, delivery leadership and product operations, working closely with engineering, domain owners and the Product Strategy Group (PSG) — making the system work without replacing anyone's ownership.The ideal candidate is a versatile product operator who's equally comfortable facilitating executive-level prioritization discussions, writing a tight specification, and unblocking an engineer mid-sprint. You bring strong technical fluency, sharp judgement about what's worth building, and the discipline to keep work moving from decision to customer outcome. You're a natural translator between business and engineering language, and you use AI tools to accelerate your own workflow.Product Strategy Group & Portfolio OperationsAct as operational owner and facilitator of the PSG, preparing prioritization material and maintaining the Group Roadmap and decision logEnsure incoming signals carry enough customer, commercial, strategic and operational context to support good decisionsDrive explicit decisions on whether work should be done, deferred, rejected, configured, productized, customized or investigatedEnsure every approved initiative has a domain, an accountable owner, an intended outcome and a success metricSurface cross-domain priority conflicts, dependencies and unresolved decisions, and follow through on PSG actionsMaintain portfolio visibility without becoming the central backlog owner for every domainDomain OwnershipOwn two product domains - Reservations & Inventory, and Operations & Fulfillment - including their roadmaps and outcomesConsolidate signals from customers, Sales, Customer Success, Support, telemetry,
