About Codvo.ai
Codvo.ai builds AI-native products and solutions that help enterprises apply governed intelligence to high-value operational and business workflows. Our NeIO portfolio combines domain intelligence, machine learning, agentic AI and enterprise-grade deployment patterns for organisations operating in complex, regulated and mission-critical environments.
We are expanding our industrial predictive-intelligence and agentic-AI portfolio for Datacenters and other critical-infrastructure industries. Our objective is to help customers move beyond dashboards and reactive alarms by identifying developing operational risks, explaining the supporting evidence and orchestrating appropriate responses—with human governance and within the customer’s approved technology environment.
Why This Role Exists
Codvo.ai is maturing a differentiated set of industrial predictive-intelligence and agentic-AI solutions into scalable, launch-ready products. We need a senior techno-functional Product Owner who can translate Datacenter, plant-floor, reliability, maintenance and process-operations problems into repeatable products rather than one-customer customisations.
This role requires more than backlog administration. The Product Owner must understand what false alarms, missed detections, weak explanations and unusable warning horizons mean operationally. They will own the product vision, roadmap, backlog, release decisions, customer validation, launch readiness and commercial outcomes required to move products from discovery and pilot to production adoption and multi-site scale.
The ideal candidate will have built or managed B2B industrial, Datacenter, energy, asset-performance, operational-technology or critical-infrastructure products. Experience with organisations such as Schneider Electric, Honeywell, AVEVA, Rockwell Automation, Siemens, GE Vernova, Baker Hughes, ABB, Emerson, Johnson Controls—or comparable industrial technology and enterprise product companies—would be highly relevant.
What the Role Owns
- The customer problem, product vision, target market, personas, value proposition and differentiated position.
- The product roadmap, prioritised backlog, MVP, Beta and GA boundaries, acceptance criteria and release readiness.
- The journey from customer discovery through pilot, launch, adoption, production conversion and commercial growth.
- The boundary between standard product capability, configuration, partner extension and custom solution engineering.
- Product performance, customer value, operator adoption and commercial outcomes.
Key Responsibilities
1. Product Strategy, Market Definition and Discovery
- Own the product vision, strategy, ICP, user and buyer definitions, priority use cases, value proposition and multi-horizon roadmap for industrial predictive-intelligence and agentic-AI solutions.
- Lead structured discovery with Datacenter operators, reliability and maintenance teams, process engineers, digital leaders, OT teams, security stakeholders and commercial buyers.
- Map operating workflows, failure modes, decisions, pain points, data readiness, integration constraints and measurable outcomes.
- Translate FMEA and RCM thinking, condition-monitoring practices, operating regimes and practitioner knowledge into reusable product capabilities.
- Use customer evidence, market analysis and competitive intelligence to guide product investment and sequencing decisions.
- Balance reusable platform capabilities with industry-specific products, asset models and domain intelligence.
2. Roadmap, Backlog and Cross-Functional Delivery
- Own and prioritise the roadmap and backlog; define user stories, acceptance criteria, release scope, product trade-offs and evidence-based exit criteria.
- Define clear MVP, Beta and GA boundaries and ensure that each release addresses a validated customer or operational outcome.
- Run a disciplined product cadence with Engineering, Data Science, ML Engineering, UX, QA, Solution Architecture and industrial domain specialists.
- Accept or reject delivered capabilities against agreed product outcomes, quality standards and operational use cases.
- Balance customer value, operational safety, technical feasibility, product reuse, time to market and commercial opportunity.
- Maintain a transparent roadmap and decision record for executives, delivery teams and GTM stakeholders.
3. Predictive Intelligence, AI and Data Lifecycle
- Define the end-to-end product lifecycle for equipment onboarding, tag mapping, signal-quality validation, feature engineering, model calibration, inference, prediction publishing and feedback capture.
- Establish product standards for fault libraries, feature definitions, physics constraints, synthetic datasets and asset-family model coverage.
- Shape coherent experiences across physics-informed models, synthetic fault trajectories, anomaly detection, fault classification, risk scoring and remaining-useful-life estimation.
- Define evaluation requirements covering detection quality, false-alarm and missed-event costs, warning lead time, confidence, explainability, human review, drift and evidence traceability.
- Ensure that prediction outputs are useful to operators—not merely technically accurate—including probable fault diagnosis, supporting evidence, contributing-feature analysis and recommended next steps.
- Help establish governed processes for model monitoring, operator feedback, model updates and fault-library expansion.
- Ensure that product and GTM claims accurately communicate capabilities, limitations, data dependencies and validation requirements.
4. Agentic Product Experience and Governance
- Shape governed agentic workflows that can observe, diagnose, explain and orchestrate—with appropriate human approval.
- Define agent roles, decision boundaries, escalation paths, approval gates, audit trails, fallback behaviour and role-based controls.
- Translate model evidence into understandable diagnoses, contributing factors, operational context and recommended actions.
- Ensure that agents augment operators, engineers and maintenance teams rather than creating opaque or ungoverned automation.
- Define how agentic workflows interact with maintenance, reliability, operator-response and work-order processes.
5. Industrial Integration, Deployment and Production Readiness
- Define requirements for sensor and telemetry data, asset hierarchy, event and work-order history, operating context and enterprise integrations.
- Support integration with relevant systems such as BMS, SCADA, DCS, PLC, DCIM, EPMS, MES, industrial historians, IoT platforms and CMMS/EAM solutions.
- Work with architecture and security teams to support appropriate cloud, edge, on-premises, containerised and air-gapped deployment patterns.
- Incorporate data sovereignty, access control, auditability, resilience, cybersecurity, upgrade management and model governance into the roadmap.
- Define how customers consume intelligence through the NeIO workbench, approved APIs, existing user interfaces and connector frameworks.
- Ensure that deployment, configuration and integration methods are documented, supportable and commercially repeatable.
6. Pilot Design, Validation and Production Conversion
- Define repeatable discovery, assessment, proof-of-value and accelerated-pilot methods.
- Establish entry criteria covering asset selection, telemetry availability, data quality, fault coverage, customer participation, deployment readiness and known constraints.
- Agree success measures and go/no-go criteria before execution, including prediction usefulness, warning lead time, explainability, operator acceptance and workflow readiness.
- Define the boundary between product configuration, reusable roadmap capability and customer-specific engineering.
- Ensure that pilots generate reusable product learning and proof rather than ending as isolated demonstrations.
- Convert pilot findings into roadmap actions, implementation improvements, commercial evidence and a plan for production and multi-site expansion.
7. Productisation, Launch, GTM and Growth
- Drive products through discovery, validation, launch and scale using evidence-based readiness criteria.
- Co-own positioning, messaging, packaging principles, demonstrations, pricing inputs, proof points and sales enablement with GTM teams.
- Develop the product inputs required for solution decks, demonstrations, FAQs, battlecards, discovery guides and objection handling.
- Participate in strategic customer conversations, industry events, analyst discussions and partner engagements.
- Define adoption, usage, time-to-value, retention, expansion, pilot-to-paid conversion and commercial-performance indicators.
- Identify growth opportunities across sites, equipment families, workflows and adjacent critical-infrastructure industries.
- Help shape OEM, platform, system-integrator and channel-partner strategies that accelerate market access and adoption.
8. Cross-Functional Leadership
- Act as the single accountable product voice across business, technology and customer-facing teams.
- Build alignment without relying solely on formal authority and resolve ambiguity across competing requirements.
- Communicate product strategy, trade-offs, delivery progress and evidence clearly to executives, technical teams and customer stakeholders.
