Technical Product Manager - Schedule Studio

If you're a planner who thinks schedules should be built differently and wants to build the tool that does it, join nPlan… Take planning past the Gantt chart - Schedule Studio is an AI-native way to author construction schedules. It's already generating and challenging programmes on major projects, and it is changing how planners have worked for a generation. Bring what you know from the tools - years of P6 and Asta, of building logic, defending float, and sitting through baseline reviews; that experience is exactly what the product needs at its centre. Lead, and build, for real - run the Schedule Studio squad, plan its quarter, ship with your own hands (and your agents'), and take on more scope as fast as you can earn it. Ready to change how the world's biggest projects get planned? nPlan has built a unique AI platform that turns the data behind major construction projects into decisions their leaders can act on - forecasting delay and cost risk on some of the world's most important infrastructure (HS2, Heathrow, Sizewell C and more), and helping the people running those projects decide what to do about it. Behind that is a machine learning capability trained on one of the largest datasets of construction schedules in existence - hundreds of thousands of real programmes - and built by a world-class engineering and research team recognised as a MacRobert Prize finalist, the UK's top engineering award. Schedule Studio is where that capability meets the planner's desk. Instead of building a programme activity by activity, a planner describes the scope and Schedule Studio produces a credible, logic-linked schedule that they can interrogate, shape, and export to P6. Today it is used to produce a first credible schedule in hours rather than weeks at bid and early-definition stage, to sense-check a contractor's submitted programme before it's signed, to generate alternative delivery sequences when a project needs recovering, and to give a planning team a running start in a sector they haven't worked in before. Our ambition is for it to become the authoring tool for construction schedules, with the traditional tools left as export destinations. We are hiring a planner to lead it. The role: read this part carefully This is a product role, but we are not asking for a career product manager. We are asking for someone who has built and defended real schedules on real projects, who has strong opinions about what a good programme looks like and what a bad one hides, and who is ready to put that judgment into a product rather than into one project at a time. If you have product experience, great. If you don't, we will teach you the product craft - we cannot teach you years of planning. We don't run product management the way most companies do. AI has collapsed the cost of building software, so we've rebuilt how we work around a simple idea: when execution is cheap, judgment is the scarce resource. For Schedule Studio, the scarce judgment is a…
