Key Responsibilities:

• Set a multiyear product vision and translate it into clear strategies, multi-quarter roadmaps, and measurable outcomes. Hold yourself and the team accountable for top-line business KPIs.

• Drive end-to-end execution across multiple streams of work. Create clarity from ambiguity, sequence milestones, manage risks, and remove blockers to deliver reliably.

• Raise the bar for product craft and reliability, with an AI-first approach. Establish quality standards, review work rigorously, and ensure we ship intuitive, durable solutions that scale.

• Lead customer and prospect discovery. Pair qualitative insights with quantitative analysis to identify the highest leverage problems and validate solutions.

• Lead a team of four (4) Product Managers. Coach product managers for outcomes, provide clear expectations, and develop talent through feedback, example-setting, and opportunity.

• Influence broadly without relying on authority. Align executives and cross functional leaders through clear narratives, crisp decision docs, and transparent tradeoffs.

• Translate customer and customer success needs into clear product requirements, user stories, and technical specs (using and building Agentic AI, APIs, data models, etc.)

• Deeply partner with Engineering to balance speed, scope, and technical integrity. Make pragmatic decisions that provide long-term upsides.

• Stay on top of the changes in the AI space and how they bring radical changes to product and engineering teams’ approach and velocity

• Orchestrate GTM with Sales, Marketing, Content and Customer Success. Define positioning, enablement, rollout plans, and feedback loops to drive adoption to market with Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success.

• Institute operating rhythms that reinforce learning: post-launch reviews, experiment cadences, KPIs, and decision logs.

• Operate with an owner/CXO mindset for your portfolio: know the figures, make focused bets, and pivot quickly based on customer feedback. Allocate resources, sunset low ROI work, and double down where impact is greatest.

That sounds just right to me. Who are we looking for?
