The listing, marked up

Nothing in the wording of this listing tripped a check. The scores above still judge how complete and coherent it is.

Distribusion is the world’s leading ground transportation marketplace and gives travellers seamless access to ground transportation online, from search to ticket purchase. We have built a cutting-edge B2B technology platform that connects bus, rail, and ferry operators in 70+ countries with the biggest online retailers, including Google Maps and Booking.com.

We are shaping the future of travel and building the largest global network of transport providers and retailers. We are one of the fastest-growing startups in travel, backed by leading venture capital investors including TQ Ventures, Lightrock, Creandum, and Northzone, and are headquartered in Berlin, Germany. Following our recent $80m Series C funding, we are ready to push beyond.

We are looking for a (Senior) Technical Product Manager, Rail Integrations, to join our Supply domain, more specifically in the Integrations team, which is responsible for onboarding carriers onto our system (integrating external systems, harmonising data structures and building revenue-increasing products for carriers). This is key to scaling our business; therefore, our focus is on innovation and automation.

What you will do:

• Extend functionalities to enable new opportunities

• Automate and innovate our existing inventory (our API product is already used by big players)

• Own scoping and management of onboarding new carriers; establish wider scope throughout Asia

• Take a lead role in defining and challenging strategic decisions

• Contribute to the team with process improvements (e.g. Jira, reporting, etc.)

• Build relationships with key stakeholders (internal/external – C-level)

Workplace: Berlin & Hybrid; or Remote

We are a remote-first international company with team members spread around the world. We are looking to hire the best talent around the Globe, so wherever you are, feel free to reach out. If, however, you prefer working onsite/hybrid, our heart is in Berlin, one of the biggest and most vibrant tech hubs in Europe, and we are happy to assist with relocation.

Who you are:

• MUST HAVE: Rail industry experience. Hands-on experience with PICO API, OSDM, or other European rail carrier and transportation industry standards.

• Product Management background: 4+ years of professional experience, with hands-on exposure to the technical side of the product (APIs / data products) — experience with complex products is a plus.

• Stakeholder management: strong track record influencing without direct authority, including at C-level, while comfortably context-switching and showing proactivity and ownership across your responsibilities.

• Management skills: solid grounding across product, process, project, and people management, developed within cross-functional teams.

• Background: technical or Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field; fluent in English, both verbal and written.

Nice to have:

• Ready to lead (experience is a plus): you may have already managed a small team of technical PMs or analysts. If not, you're excited to start. You know how to coach, unblock, and grow people while staying close to the work

What you can expect:

• Make a global impact. Help shape how millions of people discover and book ground transportation worldwide.

• Own your work. Take responsibility from day one and see the direct impact of your contributions.

• Build with the best tools. We move fast, continuously evolve our tech stack, and invest in modern, efficient solutions.

• Work with industry leaders. Our partners include Booking.com, Google Maps, Amtrak, Deutsche Bahn, Renfe, and SNCF.

• Grow with exceptional people. Join an international team that will challenge, support, and inspire you every day.

• Work your way. Enjoy flexible and remote-friendly working options, relocation opportunities, and plenty of room to grow.

How this was produced

Highlights are found by rule, not by a model: each one is a phrase matched at a known position, and every note is a template we wrote. The two scores come from a typed-decision model (Jev) that reads the listing against the official role definition and real listings for the same role, and returns probabilities rather than prose — it never writes any of the words on this page, and never chooses what to highlight.

Deterministic penalty applied to the HR score: 8 points (from 68 before penalties). Reviewed 21 Sep 2026.
