Senior Product Manager - AI-Led Mainframe Managed Services

At Ensono, our Purpose is to be a relentless ally, disrupting the status quo and unleashing our clients to Do Great Things !  We enable our clients to achieve key business outcomes that reshape how our world runs. As an expert technology adviser and managed service provider with cross-platform certifications, Ensono empowers our clients to keep up with continuous change and embrace innovation. We can Do Great Things because we have great Associates. The Ensono Core Values unify our diverse talents and are woven into how we do business. These five traits are the key to achieving our purpose. Honesty – Reliability – Curiosity – Collaboration – Passion About the role and what you'll be doing:  Ensono’s Mainframe as a Service (MFaaS) suite is one of the most durable, mission-critical managed service platforms in the market. As we incorporate AI capabilities and next-generation platform innovations, this role exists to evolve and commercialize that portfolio — turning intelligence into offers that customers will buy. This role is not responsible for defining core AI capabilities. Instead, it focuses on translating existing and emerging capabilities into productized, monetized services — including updating service definitions, pricing models, packaging, and positioning to align with market demand and client value. You will operate at the intersection of product management, pricing strategy, and service commercialization, ensuring our managed services portfolio evolves from traditional, custom delivery to repeatable, scalable offerings with clear economic models grounded in an AI-First operating model. You’ll set the roadmap, align the stakeholders, and own the outcomes. Service Evolution & Portfolio Refinement   Adapt and evolve existing managed service offerings (e.g., MFaaS) to reflect new platform capabilities (e.g., Telum, Spyre) and AI-enabled delivery improvements such as automation and productivity gains  Update and maintain service descriptions, SOW constructs, and feature definitions  Ensure offerings remain market-relevant, clearly defined, and differentiated  Keep every offering grounded in commercial reality: customer need, market timing, and Ensono’s right to win  Commercialization & Pricing Strategy (Primary Focus)   Co-develop and refine costing and pricing models in partnership with Product Pricing and Operations  Transition constructs toward standardized, scalable pricing approaches with forward-looking economics  Incorporate automation and AI-driven efficiencies into cost-to-serve models  Build and maintain pricing frameworks, SKU structures, and packaging tiers and bundles  Ensure all offerings are profitable, repeatable, and defensible in the market  Product Packaging & Monetization   Productize services into clear, sellable offerings — core vs. add-on capabilities, tiered service levels, and optional enhancements driven by AI or platform features  Translate technical capabilities into client-understandable value propositions and measurable business outcomes (cost savings, productivity, risk reduction)  Develop standardized proposal constructs and pricing guidance for Sales  Portfolio Roadmap & Lifecycle Ownership   Own and maintain the commercialization roadmap across the full MFaaS portfolio  Prioritize based on customer impact, commercial potential, and delivery feasibility  Ensure every roadmap item has a clear, documented answer to “Why this? Why us? Why now?”  Manage the full product lifecycle from ideation through commercial availability to retirement  Vendor & Ecosystem Integration   Assess and incorporate third-party vendor capabilities into service offerings, evaluating fit for integration, differentiation, and margin impact  Define how vendor technologies are packaged within managed services, priced and monetized, and positioned vs. alternatives (SaaS, ISVs, native tools)  Manage product-level relationships with key technology partners to ensure alignment with roadmap and commercial goals  Ensure Ensono maintains a cohesive “wrapper” and value layer across vendor-dependent services  Platform Feature Productization (Telum / Spyre / Next-Gen Mainframe)   Identify opportunities to package and monetize industry use cases using new platform-level capabilities  Translate hardware and software advancements (e.g., embedded AI processing) into new service features, differentiated offerings, and incremental revenue streams  Work with Engineering and Architecture to ensure offerings are deployable, operationally supported, and ready for scale  Go-to-Market Enablement   Develop and maintain product positioning, messaging, sales enablement materials, and offer definitions for pipeline and deal structuring  Partner with Sales to move from point-product or custom solutioning toward outcomes-led selling of standardized offerings  Support deal cycles with pricing guidance, packaging recommendations, and commercial clarity  Customer & Market Insight   Conduct ongoing customer discovery to validate assumptions, test positioning, and surface unmet needs  Monitor the competitive landscape across managed services, AI-enabled delivery, and platform alternatives  Turn market signals into roadmap and packaging decisions — not just decks  Cross-Functional Alignment   Act as the bridge across Product & Consulting lines of business, Pricing & Finance, Delivery/Operations, and Sales  Ensure alignment between what is sold, how it is priced, and how it is delivered  Drive consistency across portfolio definitions and commercial models — and drive decisions rather than waiting for them  We want all new Associates to succeed in their roles at Ensono.
