Product General Manager - Smart Mobility Platform

Trans Core (TRN), a subsidiary of ST Engineering, is actively seeking a highly experienced Product General Manager for our Smart Mobility Platform. This position will be based in the Atlanta, Georgia Office. Based on business needs, travel will be required.

Build – and own the business behind – the platform that enables the future of movement.

Trans Core is reinventing how people, goods, and cities move – operating at the intersection of transportation infrastructure, cloud, data, and AI, powering mission‑critical systems used by governments and operators worldwide. We are building our next‑generation mobility platform: the foundational underlay for a wide range of mobility experiences, business models, and partners across cities, operators, developers, and enterprises.

We are looking for a Product General Manager who will own the business, not just the backlog. You will operate at the system level – defining primitives, shaping markets, and turning complexity into reusable leverage – and carry accountability for the category's growth, the platform's commercial performance, and the economics that make it durable. This is a zero‑to‑one role for someone who wants to create a platform others build on and run it like a business.

This is not a feature‑delivery PM role – you will manage other Product Managers. You will be measured on category position, revenue and adoption, unit economics, and ecosystem growth – with the authority over strategy, pricing, go‑to‑market partnership, and investment prioritization to move them. You will sit between traditional product management and general management: a product strategist, category owner, ecosystem builder, business operator, and P&L partner in one seat.

The detailed mission, responsibilities, qualifications, competencies, and success metrics follow in Sections 4‑8.

• Shape a cloud‑native, API‑first platform designed for scale, reliability, and extensibility; define abstractions that reduce coupling and accelerate innovation across teams.
• Translate ambiguous, real‑world mobility challenges – movement, events, pricing, identity, real‑time decisioning – into modular, reusable, policy‑configurable platform components.
• Balance near‑term delivery with long‑term architectural integrity and platform leverage; know when to generalize, when to specialize, and when to say no.

• Own the category strategy for Trans Core's mobility platform: define the category, its segments, and Trans Core's intended position within it.
• Size and defend the opportunity – TAM/SAM/SOM – and identify new markets, segments, and adjacencies for expansion.
• Own market‑share growth and competitive positioning; run competitive intelligence and act as the internal voice of the market.
• Optimize the product portfolio for category leadership – what to invest in, sustain, or retire.

• Carry a business‑ownership mindset for the platform: accountable for revenue growth and the platform P&L relationship (influence maturing to ownership as monetization scales).
• Own the business case for major investments – build it, defend it, and prioritize investment against ROI.
• Lead pricing and packaging strategy; partner with sales and marketing on demand generation, go‑to‑market, and sales enablement.
• Own customer acquisition and retention strategy for the platform, and oversee unit economics, customer economics, and profitability optimization.

• Own revenue forecasting and the financial narrative for the platform; participate in financial performance reviews.
• Drive ROI analysis, investment decisions, and portfolio prioritization; maintain gross‑margin awareness and manage toward healthy LTV/CAC.
• Allocate scarce engineering and commercial resources strategically against the highest‑return opportunities.

• Own customer discovery, market sensing, and voice‑of‑customer programs; run structured win/loss analysis.
• Build executive‑level relationships with strategic customers (DOTs, tolling authorities, operators, enterprises) and engage industry analysts.
• Own ecosystem and partner…
