  • As an internal product owner within the GTM function—define product-specific MRR strategies, coordinate cross-functional support, and ensure Aircall delivers the leading AI-enabled communication platform.
  • Collaborate with Product and PMM to shape the AI Voice Agent roadmap based on customer needs, integration insights, and field learnings.
  • Drive internal and external product education, including enablement for System Integrators (SIs) and channel partners.
