About us

Constructor Labs is the research arm of Constructor Knowledge, based at Campus Ring 1 in Bremen, Germany. Our work is organized around three units: Knowledge Labs, Cyber Labs and Science Labs. We apply computing, software and robotics research to make scientists, teachers and students more effective, working with institutional partners that include CERN, NUS, Carnegie Mellon and Fraunhofer.

Constructor Practice is the hands-on practice platform within the Constructor Technology learning suite, alongside Learn, Assess, Proctor, Schedule and Groups. It spans an unusually broad portfolio: curriculum-aligned virtual science labs; the evidence-based intervention products Calcularis (numeracy and dyscalculia), Grafari/Orthograph (literacy and dyslexia); and browser-based Software & IT and Coding labs for technical training. Shared capabilities include cloud-based hands-on environments with no installation, automated assessment and grading, group assignments and instructor assistance, LMS integration, and learner analytics and dashboards.

The product is in production across three distinct markets. Higher education and research, schools and public education authorities, and corporate and vocational training. The platform operates under GDPR, FERPA, COPPA and SOPIPA commitments.

About the Role

You will own Constructor Practice content portfolio of products (currently includes Practice: Science Labs and Practice: Schools Math and Literacy with future extension to other disciplines) end to end: strategy, roadmap, commercial performance and delivery. This is a lead product management position with full accountability for the product line rather than for a single feature area or squad.

The scope is wider than a conventional PM role. You will sit in front of clients during presales, shape the go-to-market with sales and marketing, define the roadmap across a portfolio serving three different buyer types, and work with product owners and engineering to bring releases in on time and on budget. Where the product line needs something that has no owner, it is yours.

Practice has an established customer base and a portfolio that has grown through acquisition and expansion into markets with little in common: a Swiss canton buying dyscalculia intervention for primary schools has almost nothing in common with Acronis training its partner ecosystem. Bringing coherence to that portfolio, deciding what to invest in, what to standardize and what to retire, is the central problem of this role.

Reporting and scope

Reports to: Head of SI and Edu, Constructor Labs.

Level: Lead Product Manager. You will lead the product team including product owners, engineers and subject matter experts, with a view to building a larger product team as the line grows.

Product surface: all Constructor Practice content products, namely Science Labs, Calcularis, Grafari/Orthograph, Software & IT and Coding, in cooperation with the shared platform layer covering assessment, analytics, LMS integration and deployment.

Markets: higher education and research institutions, schools and public education authorities, and corporate and vocational training providers.

Interfaces: engineering and product owners, presales and sales, marketing, customer success and support, Constructor Tech engineering and product teams, Nexademy content team, Constructor Labs research, and Constructor Labs Solutions as an integration channel.

The role is both outward and inward facing. You are expected to be in client conversations and in sprint reviews in the same week, and to carry what you learn in one into the other.

Duties & Responsibilities:

Product strategy. Set the direction for Practice across its three markets: where to invest, where to standardize on shared platform capability, and where a module should be sustained rather than developed. Maintain a defensible view of the competitive position against virtual lab providers, intervention software and hands-on technical training platforms.
