Senior Product Manager
RemoteUnited States
Job Summary
Lead end-to-end delivery of core platform initiatives, from discovery through launch, owning the roadmap, priorities, and tradeoffs for a marketplace connecting freelance marketers with brands. Drive structured discovery cycles to translate insights into specs and prototypes, then collaborate with engineering to scope, estimate, and ship features built on large language models and agentic workflows. Manage token costs, latency, and failure modes while identifying manual processes to replace with automations that reduce error rates and single-person dependencies. Define and track success metrics to justify prioritization decisions using data, while building alignment with cross-functional partners across Sales, Marketing, Operations, and Finance. Set communication cadences and automate status updates to ensure stakeholders remain informed without constant check-ins.
Required Qualifications
- 2–5 years of product management experience
- ideally with marketplace, platform, or two-sided network products
- A product loop you built yourself: Discovery → prototype → validate with users → ship → measure → feed what you learned into the next cycle
- AI features shipped to production
- Fluency in the mechanics: Context windows, token cost and how to reduce it, prompt engineering vs. retrieval vs. fine-tuning, when an agent loop is worth the added complexity, how to evaluate output quality at scale, and how to handle inaccurate model output
- A record of moving teams to AI: Running training, writing playbooks, working through resistance, and getting non-technical colleagues using AI in their daily work
- Communication executed with leverage: You can write a crisp PRD, but we don't expect you to be typing them. PRDs, tickets, specs and status summaries should be AI-drafted from your inputs, with your judgment applied to what goes in and what ships. What we're hiring for is the thinking underneath: clear problem framing, sound scoping, and the ability to spot when a generated spec is vague, wrong, or missing the constraint that matters
- Communication rhythms you set: You don't wait to be asked for status updates; you set the cadence so stakeholders stay informed and aligned without constant check-ins. Much of this should be automated — you design the system that produces the updates rather than assembling them by hand each week
- Business judgment: You've worked with finance teams, understand how product decisions cascade into P&L, and can prioritize trade-offs based on unit economics and revenue impact
- Technical judgment: You understand system architecture, can discuss API capabilities and limitations, and know when to push back on 'that's not possible' vs. when to find a workaround
- Comfort with ambiguity and resource constraints
- A track record of trust with engineering partners
- Bias toward action: you default to clarity and execution, not analysis paralysis
Desired Qualifications
- You've worked with finance teams, understand how product decisions cascade into P&L, and can prioritize trade-offs based on unit economics and revenue impact. You're dangerous with a spreadsheet
- You understand system architecture, can discuss API capabilities and limitations, and know when to push back on 'that's not possible' vs. when to find a workaround. You don't need to code, but you think like someone who does
