Senior Product Manager

Strategy for your product area.

You write it, you make the case for it, and you change it when you learn something that changes the picture.

• The roadmap. You decide what makes the cut. Sometimes that means turning down a good idea from someone senior, and you should be able to explain why without flinching.
• Discovery. Customer calls and demos you run yourself, and a clear definition of the problem at the end of them.
• Customer research. You run the conversations yourself rather than reading someone else's notes on them.
• The commercial side. Sizing, pricing input, and a revenue number you help set.
• Daily work with engineering and design, from first prototype through GA.
• Positioning and launch alongside marketing and sales. Also the weeks after launch, which is the part most people skip.
• A working read on what competitors are doing and what it means for us.
• Your own leverage. Nobody is going to hand you a research process or a reporting workflow. Build the agents and automations you need.
• Go-to-market. Positioning, the launch blog, budget for ads, field enablement, and prospect demos when a deal needs product in the room. You build the assets rather than briefing someone else to build them.

Five or six years in product management.

What you've shipped matters more to us than where you shipped it.

Beyond that:

• Experience with products in their early stages, before there's a playbook to follow.
• Real use of AI in how you work day to day. The PMs here build their own agents for research, synthesis, competitive tracking, marketing, and the repetitive parts of the job. Tell us what you've built and what it saved you.
• A decision you got wrong. Bring it to the interview. What you did next tells us more than a list of wins does.
• Willingness to make a call without complete information. You rarely get it, and waiting has a cost too.
• Strong writing or writing delivered by agents. Much of this job is documents that get read when you're not in the room to explain them - or by agents.
• Enough technical depth that engineers take you seriously and you can question an estimate.
