About the role:

Tempo’s Atlassian Marketplace business is part of the foundation of our company. It is trusted by tens of thousands of teams and generates significant, durable revenue at scale.

We are seeking a VP of Product to own and scale this business. This is a scale, optimization, and strategic control role.

You will be responsible for driving the next phase of growth for our Marketplace portfolio by:

• Expanding customers from single-product usage to multi-module adoption

• Deepening our position as the system of record for execution data inside Jira

• Navigating Atlassian’s evolving platform strategy while maintaining Tempo’s relevance and differentiation

• Acting as the bridge between execution (TEA) and intelligence (Loop)

• Potentially building new marketplace apps to fill gaps

This role owns a $200M+ ARR growth opportunity, not through new products alone, but through maximizing the value of what we already have

What You’ll Do:

Own the TEA Business (Revenue + Growth)

• Drive cross-module adoption (1.2 → 2+ products per customer)

• Define packaging, pricing, and bundling strategies to increase ARR

• Partner with GTM to scale expansion within the existing install base

Establish Execution Data as the Moat

• Ensure Tempo owns the most complete, trusted dataset for:

  • Time

  • Capacity

  • Structure (hierarchy)

  • Financial actuals

  • Analytics

• Drive product decisions that improve data quality, depth, and connectivity

Navigate Atlassian as Platform + Competitor

• Develop a clear strategy for co-existing with:

  • Jira Plans

  • Atlassian Focus

  • Rovo AI

  • Teamwork Graph

• Make deliberate tradeoffs on where to compete vs. where to integrate

• Ensure Tempo remains essential, even as Atlassian expands its native capabilities

Drive Product Focus and Discipline

• Maintain clarity on what TEA is—and is not:

  • TEA = execution data layer

  • NOT an intelligence layer (that belongs in Loop)

• Prevent roadmap drift into areas that dilute strategic positioning

Bridge TEA to Loop

• Ensure TEA acts as a primary signal source for Loop

  • Drive product decisions that increase:

  • Data usability

  • Signal quality

  • Customer readiness to adopt Loop

• Partner closely with the Loop product leader to define the upgrade path

Build and Lead a High-Performing Team

• Develop strong product leaders who can own modules independently

• Create a culture of:

  • Accountability

  • Focus

  • Commercial thinking (not just feature delivery)

• Operate effectively in a matrixed environment across Product, GTM, and Engineering

Who You Are:

Proven Operator at Scale

• 12+ years in Product Management, including VP/Sr Director roles

• Experience owning a scaled B2B SaaS product with meaningful ARR

• Adopted or familiar with AI driven product processes

Commercially Driven

• Strong instincts in:

  • Packaging and pricing

  • Expansion strategy

  • Monetization of installed base

  • Understands how to turn product decisions into revenue outcomes

Platform + Ecosystem Fluent

• Experience building within or alongside major platforms (e.g., Atlassian, Salesforce, Microsoft)

Understands how to win inside someone else’s ecosystem

Disciplined Product Thinker

• Can maintain focus and avoid “feature creep”

• Makes clear strategic tradeoffs

• Knows when not to build

• AI change manager

Strong People Leader

• Builds trust across teams and functions

• Delegates effectively and develops leaders

• Creates clarity and alignment, not confusion

• Create opportunity for team to excel and advance

What Success Looks Like:

• Customers adopt 2+ Tempo modules at a significantly higher rate

• TEA becomes the undisputed execution data layer inside Jira

• Clear separation is maintained:

• TEA = data

• Loop = intelligence

TEA customers convert into Loop pipeline and early adopters

Tempo maintains strong positioning despite Atlassian’s expansion
