Windward is a leading maritime AI company, offering advanced risk management, intelligence, and logistics solutions. Our state-of-the-art Maritime AI™ platform empowers organizations to make faster, smarter, and more resilient decisions across global trade. By combining predictive intelligence, behavioral analytics, and workflow automation powered by Generative AI, Maritime AI™ delivers actionable insights that help customers optimize operations and reduce risk.
We’re looking for a Product Manager to join our Trading & Shipping (T&S) vertical. This role focuses on creating, owning, and scaling products and features that help commodity traders, shipowners, operators, and bunkering companies optimize decision-making across the maritime value chain. By embedding AI-driven workflows and automation into Maritime AI™, you will enable customers to streamline pre-fixture and operational processes, unlock efficiencies, and transform how they operate.
Depending on your experience, you may focus on supporting and scaling existing product lines, or take full ownership of new products, leading them from ideation through production and adoption. In both cases, you’ll collaborate with developers, data scientists, and analysts, as well as engage directly with commercial teams and customers to ensure impact.
This position offers excellent growth potential, with the opportunity to contribute across multiple product areas, learn from experienced product leaders, and help shape the future of Maritime AI™ in global trade. You’ll report to the Director of Product Management, Trading & Shipping.

- Define and own customer workflows within the Trading & Shipping vertical, translating them into product requirements and features.
- Take products and features from ideation to production and adoption, validating with customers and ensuring measurable business impact.
