Product Manager - APIs
TomTom
Product
Amsterdam, Netherlands
Posted on Nov 4, 2025
If the internet is a brain, APIs are the tissue that connects the different parts of it. As a Product Manager for APIs, you will own a crucial part of TomTom’s product portfolio. You will work with our B2B customers, developers, and internal product teams to build location-aware and AI-driven experiences. This is a high-impact role focused on designing and operating public API contracts, pricing, and developer-facing reliability so our customers can build, scale and monetize on TomTom’s platform. You’ll work across engineering, developer experience, commercial, legal and security to deliver a world-class public API offering.
This role is part of our Location Services & Intelligence portfolio, with opportunities to influence broader product areas. Initial focus will be on APIs, with potential to expand into location intelligence and AI as the product evolves.
What you'll do
- Define strategy and roadmap for our direct API offering (across routing, map display, search, geocoding, traffic)
- Develop and redesign APIs for AI & agent integrations, optimizing for latency, cost, and safety
- Accelerate developer onboarding from documentation to onboarding, tooling, and sample integrations
- Partner with commercial teams on API pricing and monetization
- Collaborate with our API platform team to specify telemetry, observability, and billing instrumentation, including AI-specific metrics
What you'll need
- Proven experience managing technical products—ideally APIs or developer platforms
- Minimum 5 years of experience as a Product Manager in a software company
- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Data Science, or similar technical field
- Strong technical fluency; able to interpret API specs, latency tradeoffs, and usage telemetry
- Excellent track record of collaborating effectively across engineering, legal, product, and commercial teams
- Data-driven thinking coupled with deep empathy for the developer persona
- Experience designing and scaling usage-based or consumption-based business models
