Description
WHAT APHEX DOES
Aphex is the execution platform for major construction projects, the connected system where teams plan their upcoming work, coordinate their day-to-day, and capture the daily record. Everything draws from the same live plan.
Major contractors like Acciona, CPB Contractors, John Holland, and McConnell Dowell use Aphex to deliver projects from £50 million to multi-billion pound mega projects. We're market-leading in Australia and the UK, supporting teams building the roads, rail, tunnels, and hospitals that millions use every day.
THE ROLE
Your mission: keep deepening Planner, the live working plan that the site teams on major construction projects rely on every day, and help extend it as Aphex grows.
The opportunity: Planner is where the site team's plan, coordination, and daily routine all live in one place. Lookaheads. Weekly work plans. Resource and spatial planning. Daily coordination. Briefings. The constant back-and-forth between plan and reality. The decisions made in Planner shape what actually gets built: billion-dollar bridges, city-spanning tunnels, country-powering wind farms, on time or not. When we make Planner better, the work of running a major project gets a little less painful for the people doing it.
It's the most iterated and mature part of Aphex, and the foundation the rest of the product is being built around. There's huge ground left to cover, both in going deeper into what already works and in extending it into the adjacent territory the wider product is moving into.
We're on the lookout for a second Product Manager to join our Planner team, partly because there's a lot we want to build and not enough of us to build it, and partly because the team is at the point where having more than one product person on it just makes sense.
You'd take on major Planner initiatives, something the team is working on for a quarter or longer, and own the delivery of all features inside it end-to-end, from discovery through to QA to launch.
Deep construction industry experience runs through Aphex, and product decisions have benefited from that since the start. Bringing that together with more traditional product practice is something we're actively shaping, and this role will be part of how it comes together. The way the team operates will continue to develop, and you'd help shape it.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
You'll work with the Product Leader for Planner, alongside developers, designers & one other PM to keep building Planner into the platform major projects rely on to plan, coordinate, and run their work.
Own Feature Delivery
- Coordinate end-to-end: discovery through QA to launch
- Write clear specs that designers and developers can execute against
- Make daily tradeoff decisions: scope, timeline, quality
- Spot blockers early, and clear them before they hold the team up
- Define "done" and hold the quality bar
Understand the user reality
- Work with CX, CS, AMs and customers directly to understand how teams are using Planner today, where it's working, and where it isn't, and stay close to the feature requests, bugs, and data that signals what users need
- Get specific about what users need the initiative to do for them - the outcomes and gaps that the work has to address
- Translate what you learn into buildable features and clear specs
- Test direction with real users and workflows before committing
- Track adoption: is what you shipped landing the way it should?
Coordinate Across Functions
- Partner with designers to scope and refine features as you go, and run the daily and regular rhythms that keep work moving across design and engineering
- Work with the team's staff engineers on technical approach, PoCs and what's feasible
- Bring in CX, CS, Sales, and Marketing on what's coming and what's just shipped - different teams need different things at different points, and the company needs to understand what's been built and how
- Manage the dependencies your wor
