Product Area Lead Andriod Platform IRC302491

Description

We are seeking a highly experienced and technically grounded Product Area Lead to guide Android platform teams. Because our teams operate deep within the platform layer-focusing primarily on C++/C at the Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) and within Android AOSP-you must possess a robust technical background to effectively lead them.

This is a hybrid role combining hands-on Android platform development, product ownership, technical leadership, and stakeholder management.

As Product Area Lead and Product Owner, you will act as the link between business and product needs and the engineering organization. You will help define the product vision and roadmap, prioritize work, make technical and product decisions, and ensure that the team delivers solutions that provide value to both the customer and the overall product.
