International Expansion

Apaleo

JOIN APALEO AND SHAPE THE FUTURE OF HOSPITALITY TECH! Apaleo is the world's most open, API-first property management platform powering the next generation of hospitality operations. Its modular, AI-powered infrastructure enables hoteliers to customise their tech stack, automate routine work, and deliver seamless, personalised guest experiences, powered by best-in-class apps and autonomous AI agents that adapt to every stay. As Apaleo accelerates international expansion, compliance has become one of the most strategically critical capabilities we own. We're looking for someone to do something ambitious: transform how Apaleo handles fiscal and compliance requirements across global markets, moving from reactive, country-by-country firefighting to a scalable platform capability that makes expansion repeatable, fast, and low-risk. If you're driven by the idea of making hospitality smarter, more human, and powered by cutting-edge technology, we'd love to hear from you. WHAT YOU’LL BE UP TO This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role. The work you drive directly determines how fast Apaleo can expand internationally. You will own the product vision, roadmap, and architectural direction for the entire Fiscal & Compliance domain, operating as a peer to our Product Compliance Leader, where they bring regulatory intelligence and you translate it into platform strategy and delivery. Fiscal framework vision & scalable market enablement Define and drive the long-term architectural vision for how Apaleo handles fiscal compliance at scale, one that transforms new-market enablement from bespoke engineering projects into scalable, configuration-driven workflows. Own the investment case for this platform-level work, defend it against short-term feature pressure, and hold yourself accountable for the outcome: measurably faster and cheaper fiscal provider integrations and new country launches. Roadmap ownership & strategic prioritisation Own the Fiscal & Compliance product roadmap end-to-end: from regulatory signal to architectural decision to crew-level delivery. Make prioritisation trade-offs transparently, deciding when to take on a new country requirement, when to defer, and when to invest in foundational capability instead. Turf leadership & team development Lead and develop the Crew-level PM(s) within the turf, providing direction, coaching, and clear ownership boundaries. Depending on team shape and capacity, you may also directly own one of the crews, particularly where the work is foundational or tightly coupled to the vision. Cross-functional leadership Work as a peer with the Product Compliance Leader: they bring regulatory intelligence and country strategy; you translate that into product decisions and delivery. Collaborate with BD and CS to ensure the roadmap reflects commercial priorities. WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE TEAM REQUIRED EXPERIENCE & COMPETENCIES * 5+ years in product management, with at least 2 years in a senior or lead role owning a platform domain or complex infrastructure product area. * Demonstrated experience driving platform-level investment decisions, not just feature delivery, but architectural thinking with multi-year consequences. * Background in fiscal, financial, or compliance-adjacent product domains (fintech, ERP, tax-tech, PMS, or similar) to engage credibly with regulatory complexity, even if you’re not a primary specialist. * Intellectually honest about domain gaps, with a concrete plan to close them, comfortable working alongside a domain expert rather than needing to be one. * Experience leading or mentoring other PMs, with a clear management or coaching track record. * Strong prioritisation instincts under competing pressures, with a track record of defending foundational investment against short-term demands. * Excellent communication skills, able to make complex platform trade-offs legible to engineers, senior leadership, and commercial stakeholders alike. STRONGLY PREFERRED * Prior exposure to hospitality technology or PMS platforms. * Experience owning a compliance or fiscalization project through multiple market expansions. * Familiarity with European fiscal regulatory landscape and what it takes to build compliant products across these markets. WHAT EARLY SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE * A fiscal integration framework vision is defined, socialised, and has engineering investment allocated to it. * The time and cost of connecting a fiscal provider to a new market has measurably reduced. * The team is operating with a forward-looking roadmap, not a reactive backlog. * Platform investment and technical debt reduction are treated as explicit roadmap streams alongside regulatory delivery. WHAT WE OFFER CULTURE & GROWTH * A Diverse & International Team: Work alongside passionate professionals from over 20 nationalities, bringing unique cultural perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences to shape the future of hospitality tech. * Growth & Development: As we scale, so do your opportunities. You’ll benefit from 360° feedback reviews, a dedicated learning budget, and plenty of chances to take on more responsibility. Our evolving career framework ensures you have increasing opportunities to learn new skills, advance your career, and make an impact. * Autonomy & Ownership: Great ideas can come from anywhere. We empower you to take responsibility, make decisions, and contribute directly in an environment built on trust, transparency, and collaboration. * Shape the Future of Hospitality Tech: Be part of a fast-growing scale-up transforming the hospitality industry. From day one, your work drives real impact and you’ll have the freedom to bring your ideas to life. * Competitive & Fair Compensation: We believe great work deserves great pay. Our salaries are competitive and guided by benchmarking data to ensure fairness across all roles and teams. We make sure to recognize and reward performance and contribution. PERKS & LIFESTYLE * Flexible & Remote Work Options: We focus on results, not clocking hours. You can work from home, the office or in a hybrid setup, with flexibility to adapt your schedule as long as it makes sense for your role, your team and our business. * Free Public Transport: Travel across Germany with ease using our fully covered Deutschland Ticket. * Team Connection: Strong connections fuel collaboration. We celebrate and connect through regular team dinners, company meetups, Oktoberfest celebrations, Christmas parties, and other offsite events. * Paid Time Off: Enjoy 30 days of vacation to fully disconnect, recharge, and return inspired. * Health & Wellbeing: Prioritize your health with access to hundreds of gyms, fitness studios, and wellness options through our EGYM Wellpass membership.
