Development Communications Director Jobs in Quebec

Connectivity encompasses the creation of mobile applications, the integration of digital experiences within BRP recreational vehicles, and the intelligent use of connected data to deliver seamless, end-to-end customer experiences.
In an environment where hardware and software must operate as a single, cohesive product, this role ensures that the digital experience remains a fully integrated, customer-driven, and strategically led capability across the organization.
Your role will be to define, lead, and protect a unified connected ecosystem, ensuring that mobile, embedded, cloud, and data platforms evolve under a coherent product and customer experience vision, rather than as fragmented or functionally siloed initiatives.
Your mission: to lead the vision, coherence, and end-to-end delivery of an integrated digital portfolio - mobile application, connected devices, and over-the-air (OTA) updates - across BRP's connectivity ecosystem, and to grow the multidisciplinary team that builds it.
You are the anchor point and the owner of the connected customer experience across the organization - keeping mobile, embedded, OTA, and data working as one ecosystem - and you lead, grow, and retain a team of digital experts who expect to be led by someone who understands their craft.

YOU’LL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO:

• Be accountable for the end-to-end delivery of BRP GO!, the OTA platform, and connected experiences while maintaining clear ownership of customer experience outcomes across all layers.

• Lead and develop a multidisciplinary organization of 40+ experts, ensuring strong alignment across product, software engineering, UX/UI, QA, release management, and strategy functions.

• Ensure excellence in software development practices, including Agile delivery, DevOps, CI/CD, system reliability, and release management.

• Drive a strong digital culture that attracts, develops, and retains top digital-native talent.

• Lead budget planning, investment strategies, and business case development for the digital portfolio.

• Establish and track key performance indicators, including adoption, engagement, quality, and customer satisfaction (e.g., NPS, app ratings, OTA success rates).

• Partner with engineering (hardware and software), architecture, and IT teams to ensure seamless integration between hardware and digital experiences.
  Collaborate and influence R&D, Global Product Strategy, Design & Innovation, IT and the brands to align the organization around a shared connected vision.

• Act as a key influencer across Engineering, Global Product Strategy, Design & Innovation, and Marketing teams to align on a shared, customer-centric vision.
  

YOU’LL THRIVE IN THIS ROLE IF YOU HAVE THE FOLLOWING SKILLS AND QUALITIES:

• 10+ years of experience in digital product and software development, including 5+ years leading software teams that ship to customers at scale.

• Proven leadership of large, multidisciplinary teams (30-50+ people) spanning digital strategy, product, engineering, and design, with a strong emphasis on software delivery.

• Deep, credible software fluency for customer experience - mobile (iOS/Android, native or cross-platform), backend and cloud (Azure), APIs (REST / GraphQL), and ideally embedded / IoT and OTA - with enough depth to earn the trust of senior developers and to make sound technical and architectural trade-offs.

• Demonstrated ability to lead customer-facing digital products at scale, ensuring both technical excellence and differentiated user experience based on user research and data

• Solid understanding of embedded systems and hardware/software integration, with the ability to navigate constraints while maintaining CX integrity.

• Proven ability to define and scale modern software operating models, including Agile, DevOps, CI/CD, and platform-based architectures.

• Strong leadership presence with the ability to influence senior stakeholders and maintain clear ownership boundaries in complex, matrixed organizations.

• Track record of building environments where digital-native teams can thrive, including engineers, designers, and product leaders.

• Ability to balance strategic vision, technical depth, and organizational navigation, ensuring that digital initiatives remain cohesive, prioritized, and outcome-driven.

• Strong business acumen with experience managing budgets, investment trade-offs, and long-term roadmap alignment.

• Excellent communication and storytelling skills, enabling alignment across technical, commercial, and executive stakeholders.

• Ability to collaborate with global teams and partners outside Québec on a daily basis; bilingualism (French & English) required.
