Job Description
AbbVie’s Business Technology Solutions (BTS) Infrastructure, Architecture, and Innovation group is seeking a Senior Product Manager with experience in Platform Engineering and Developer Experience, Internal Developer Toolchains and DevOps.
This role supports product strategy, design and planning for multiple internal platform products that enable secure, compliant, scalable, and high-velocity software delivery across BTS. This is early-stage product work — you will shape what gets built from the ground up based on what engineers actually need.
You contribute to internal platform products using product management best practices, embedding reliability, security, and compliance as differentiated capabilities while improving developer experience, operational efficiency, and time to value.
Key Responsibilities:
- Champion end-to-end product management from continuous user research and discovery through launch, adoption, and optimization of internal platforms.
- Focus engineering teams on the why. Own business outcomes and user problems, not solutions—deeply understand developer pain points before prescribing platform features.
- Facilitate outcome-oriented alignment across business, engineering, and BTO stakeholders for a suite of Platform Engineering and Internal Developer Toolchain products, ensuring enterprise requirements (security, compliance, reliability, cost) are delivered as built-in platform value.
- Own platform capabilities such as CI/CD pipelines, developer portals, artifact management, and observability.
- Treat compliance, security, and operational controls as first-class product features, embedding them directly into platforms and pipelines.
- Conduct in user research, journey mapping, and assumption testing to validate product decisions — change direction when the evidence says you're wrong.
- Use data analytics, KPIs, and OKRs to measure product success, guide prioritization, and drive evidence-based, customer-centric decisions.
- Work closely with Engineering, Security, Architecture, Legal, and Compliance teams to deliver platforms that are compliant-by-design, scalable, and reusable.
- Collaborate with other Product Managers to align platform strategies, manage interdependencies, and deliver a cohesive internal developer ecosystem.
- Guide cross-functional teams in delivering platform standards, paved roads, and self-service capabilities that accelerate product team delivery.
- Proactively monitor DevOps, Platform Engineering, cloud, and AI trends to ensure platform relevance, sustainability, and innovation.
- Facilitate outcome-oriented alignment across business, engineering, and BTO stakeholders, clearly communicating strategy, trade-offs, and progress.
Qualifications Required:
- Bachelor’s Degree with 8+ years of experience; Master’s Degree with 7+ years; or PhD with 3+ years of relevant experience.
- Proven experience as a Product Manager contributing to platform, infrastructure, or internal developer-facing products.
- Knowledge of Agile product management, product discovery frameworks (Lean, Dual-Track Agile, Jobs-To-Be-Done Framework, Continuous Discovery), and outcome-based roadmapping.
- Evidence of real user research and discovery practice — talking to users, testing assumptions, and changing direction based on what you learned.
- Strong understanding of Platform Engineering, DevOps, CI/CD, cloud platforms, infrastructure-as-code, and developer experience.
- Prior hands-on engineering experience or deep technical background in software delivery.
- Experience working with cross-disciplinary teams including Engineering, SRE, Security, and Architecture.
- Proven ability to engage engineering teams as a technical peer—can discuss architectural trade-offs, evaluate technical debt, and contribute to design discussions.
- Strong analytical, user empathy, and stakeholder management skills.
- Excellent communicator able to build trust, influence without authority, and align teams in a complex, matrixed enterprise environment.
Preferred:
- Experience in regulated industries (pharma, healthcare, finance) with familiarity in GxP, SOX, GDPR, or similar frameworks.
- Hands-on exposure to Platform Engineering models (internal developer platforms, golden paths, paved roads).
- Experience delivering Compliance-as-a-Platform or Security-as-a-Platform capabilities.
- Background working closely with Cloud Engineering, SRE, or DevOps organizations.
- Ability to manage competing priorities and navigate ambiguity while driving business outcomes.
- Practiced in continuous discovery methods — opportunity solution trees, assumption mapping, lean experimentation — not just familiar with the concepts.
Why This Role Matters
This role directly enables faster, safer, and more reliable delivery of digital products across AbbVie. By treating platform capabilities as products, the Product Manager will improve developer productivity, reduce operational and compliance risk, and scale engineering excellence across the enterprise.

Verify your degree field matches the role
H-1B1 visa requires a specialty occupation, so your degree must directly relate to product management. A computer science or business degree typically qualifies, but a general arts degree may not, even with years of product experience.
Search verified H-1B1 sponsors on Migrate Mate
Use Migrate Mate to filter companies with confirmed H-1B1 Singapore LCA filing history for product roles. This cuts your outreach list to employers who already understand the visa and won't confuse it with H-1B visa.
Check employer prevailing wage filings before applying
Run the job title and location through the OFLC Wage Search to confirm the offered compensation meets DOL prevailing wage requirements. Employers who underpay risk LCA rejection, which stalls your sponsorship before it starts.
Ask about LCA filing timing during the offer stage
The employer must certify the Labor Condition Application with DOL before you can apply at the consulate. Confirm the hiring team knows this step comes before your visa appointment, not after you accept.
Carry O*NET documentation to support your specialty occupation claim
Consular officers assess whether your Product Lead role qualifies as a specialty occupation. Printing the O*NET occupation profile showing the typical education requirement for the role strengthens your application and pre-empts officer questions.
Prepare for annual H-1B1 renewal unlike H-1B holders
H-1B1 is granted in one-year increments and doesn't carry the three-year renewal window H-1B offers. Coordinate with your employer at least 60 days before your status expires so the next LCA is certified without a gap.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Product Lead role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B1 Singapore?
Yes, provided the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as business administration, computer science, or engineering. Consular officers assess whether the specific job duties demand that level of education. Generic product coordinator roles without a degree requirement typically don't qualify, but senior product leadership positions with technical scope usually do.
How is the H-1B1 Singapore visa different from H-1B for Product Lead roles?
H-1B1 Singapore has no lottery, no USCIS petition, and processes directly at the U.S. consulate in Singapore, making it faster and more predictable for Product Lead candidates. The tradeoff is that it's issued in one-year increments rather than three, and it doesn't support dual intent, so you'll need to renew annually and maintain nonimmigrant intent throughout your employment.
How do I find employers who sponsor H-1B1 Singapore visas for product roles?
Search on Migrate Mate, which filters companies by verified H-1B1 LCA filing history for specific job titles and locations. Most general job searches don't distinguish H-1B1 from H-1B, which leads to wasted outreach at companies that aren't set up for the Singapore-specific process. Targeting employers with an existing track record shortens your job search considerably.
What documents should I bring to the H-1B1 consular interview for a Product Lead position?
Bring your certified Labor Condition Application, your original degree certificate, your employment offer letter specifying the role and salary, and your DS-160 confirmation. Supporting documentation showing the Product Lead role requires your specific degree field, such as an O*NET occupation profile or a job description cross-referenced against your transcript, helps if the officer questions your specialty occupation eligibility.
Can my employer convert my H-1B1 status to H-1B if I want a longer-term solution?
Yes, your employer can file an H-1B petition on your behalf during an open registration period, and you'd be subject to the annual lottery. If selected, your status converts after approval. Many Singaporean professionals on H-1B1 stay on annual renewals long-term rather than risk the lottery, since the H-1B1 cap has historically remained well under the 5,400-visa annual ceiling.
