Product Manager - Digital Well Construction Platform

Job Purpose: Lead the definition, development, and execution of the Well Construction Platform digital vision, establishing a unified digital ecosystem that connects engineering, planning, operational execution, and performance insights across the well construction lifecycle. This role is responsible for driving a platform-led transformation that improves Service Efficiency, reduces Non-Productive Time (NPT), lowers operational risk, and enables repeatable performance across global drilling campaigns. Transform the organization from product-line-centric software development to a platform-led operating model by creating a shared digital foundation that serves Drilling Services (DS), Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD), Wireline (WL), TRS, Drilling Fluids (DF), and future well construction technologies. The platform will create a continuous digital thread linking planning, engineering, execution, analytics, and optimization while establishing the foundational capabilities required for remote operations and future autonomous well construction. Responsibilities: Platform Strategy & Vision - Define and maintain the long-term Well Construction Platform digital roadmap. - Establish a common platform architecture that addresses 70-80% of shared business requirements across product lines. - Drive alignment between business objectives, technology investments, and operational outcomes. - Develop business cases demonstrating value through service efficiency, risk reduction, operational consistency, and increased automation. Product Portfolio Transformation - Evaluate existing DS, MPD, WL, and related digital products for strategic fit, overlap, and platform alignment. - Lead portfolio rationalization efforts to reduce duplication and maximize reuse of common capabilities. - Champion workflow-centric development approaches over standalone application development. - Establish governance processes for platform adoption and product-line extensions. Digital Foundation Development Lead the development of core platform capabilities including: - Unified real-time and historical data ingestion - Common well construction data model - Master data management for wells, assets, customers, and users - Analytics and reporting services - AI/ML enablement framework - Event management and alarm systems - Integration and API services - Security, compliance, and data governance frameworks Engineering Digitization Drive digitization and standardization of engineering workflows such as: - Offset well analysis - Risk identification and mitigation - Hydraulics modeling - Mechanical engineering workflows - BHA design and optimization - Well trajectory planning - Engineering collaboration and review processes Stakeholder Leadership - Act as the executive liaison between Product Lines, Engineering, Operations, Digital Technology, and Commercial organizations. - Influence senior leadership on investment priorities and strategic direction. - Build alignment across diverse stakeholders with competing priorities. - Communicate platform value, adoption plans, and business outcomes. Technology Expectations - Percentage of common capabilities reused across product lines - Data quality and accessibility improvements - System integration coverage - AI/analytics utilization rates - Platform reliability and scalability metrics Qualifications: - Bachelor’s degree in engineering, Computer Science, Geoscience, or related technical field; MBA or relevant business certification preferred. - 5+ years of experience in product management within oilfield services or industrial environments, with demonstrated ownership of products that integrate hardware, field operations, and digital capabilities. - Direct experience with multiple OFS product lines - Demonstrated ability to translate technical capabilities into commercial value. - Excellent communication, leadership, and stakeholder management skills. - Experience with wireline telemetry, real-time data systems (e.g., Warrior, Wellsite), or log interpretation platforms is a plus - Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and decision-making skills. - Strong leadership and communication skills to work across teams and with customers. - Demonstrated experience translating operational challenges into structured, scalable workflows or digital frameworks within complex service environments. - Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States Skills: - Working knowledge of energy data standards (e.g., WITSML) and system integration principles, with the ability to evaluate practical implementation impact on field operations. - Practical understanding of applying analytics or automation within operational workflows where data quality, context integrity, and decision defensibility are critical. - Familiarity with platforms like Techlog, Spotfire, Petrel, or cloud-based analytics portals . - Field experience with Wireline or Slickline operations is a strong advantage. - Experience with Agile development methodologies. - Proficiency in product management tools (e.g., Jira, Aha!, Trello). - Understanding of financial modelling and business case development. - Ability to assess digital initiatives critically and prioritize based on operational impact, execution feasibility, and commercial value. - Comfortable operating in environments where processes may be loosely defined and capable of driving clarity, structure, and alignment without excessive rigidity. #LI-AM1
