Métier en 2026 et 2027
A VP of Product owns the direction of the product organization: what the company builds, for whom, and why it wins. The job is mostly judgment, communication and building the people who make those decisions daily.

Expert
Accountable for the whole product portfolio, the governance behind it and its alignment with sales and engineering.
Your week is about portfolio trade-offs, commitments made to customers and the executive team, and the relationships with the heads of sales and engineering. What changes from senior is that you no longer optimize one product: you decide which bets to fund, which to close, and how the company makes and keeps promises.

Product Vision & Mission
Pourquoi : Lets you carry one vision across several products and a reorganization, so teams still understand why their work matters after the structure changes.
Market Positioning
Pourquoi : Lets you keep positioning coherent across the portfolio, so two of your own products do not compete for the same buyer with conflicting messages.
Market Analysis & TAM
Pourquoi : Lets you back an adjacent-market entry or an acquisition thesis with TAM, SAM and trend analysis that a CFO and a board will actually challenge.
Product-Market Fit
Pourquoi : Lets you judge fit across several products at once and decide where a scaling investment is justified and where the evidence is still too thin.
Portfolio Decisions
Pourquoi : Lets you decide to sunset a product with paying customers, buy a competitor or move users to a new core product, and own the consequences.
Portfolio Prioritization
Pourquoi : Lets you split investment between the core business, adjacent growth and long-shot bets in annual planning, and defend that split when the core asks for more.
Product Team Leadership
Pourquoi : Lets you build a leadership bench of directors and group PMs, plan succession and keep the culture intact as the product organization grows.
Hiring & Recruitment Strategy
Pourquoi : Lets you design the hiring strategy for a whole product organization, including how to recruit a director-level peer the market does not easily supply.
Roadmap Governance
Pourquoi : Lets you set who decides what on the roadmap and how late requests from the CEO or a big customer are handled, so planning stops being renegotiated every quarter.
Commitment Framework
Pourquoi : Lets you decide which dates are firm promises to customers and which are directional, so sales can sell with confidence without forcing engineering into false deadlines.
Sales & Customer Alignment
Pourquoi : Lets you weigh a request from a large prospect against the strategy, and tell sales which deals to pursue because the product can serve them well.
Engineering Alignment
Pourquoi : Lets you negotiate with the CTO how much of a quarter goes to technical debt versus new bets, and explain that trade-off to the executive team in business terms.
