About Augment

Augment is an AI coding assistant built for teams working in large, complex codebases. Our vision is to automate all parts of the SDLC with Agents—helping enterprises move faster, improve code quality, and keep developers in flow.

About the Role

We’re hiring a Director of Product, Agents to own the end-to-end product experience for Augment’s Agents (IDE + CLI). This is an operational product leadership role: you’ll turn founder direction and customer insights into a crisp roadmap, a high quality bar, and launches that feel coherent across product, docs, and website.

You’ll be hands-on from day one—partnering with engineering, design, and docs to ship reliable, polished workflows that developers love. As we scale, you’ll hire and coach PMs to expand the Agents portfolio. If you’re a product leader with strong taste for developer tools and a reputation for getting complex products over the line, you’ll thrive here.

What You’ll Do
  • Own the Agents experience (IDE + CLI) end-to-end—from roadmap to launch quality, including docs/website touchpoints.
  • Raise the quality bar: guardrails for UI/UX consistency, reliability, performance, onboarding, and configuration.
  • Partner on narrative & positioning: ensure Agents are clearly explained and discoverable in product and on the website.
  • Build the team: over time, hire and develop PMs; elevate product craft and taste.
You Might Be a Good Fit If You
  • Have 7–10+ years in product, including dev-tools or platform products; former software engineer or equivalent technical depth preferred.
  • Bring excellent product taste for developer workflows (UX, config, performance, failure modes).
  • Are a strong operator who thrives in cross-functional execution and gets complex work shipped.
  • Collaborate well with opinionated founders—you validate, sharpen, and land the vision.
  • Are fluent in launch quality: docs, website, packaging, and enablement details matter to you.
  • Learn fast around AI/agentic patterns and can translate capabilities into delightful workflows.
  • Are eager to be hands-on now, then hire/coach a small PM team.
Nice to Have
  • Experience with agentic products or AI-assisted coding tools.
  • Track record shipping IDE integrations or CLI tools.
  • Enterprise rollout empathy (governance, SSO/SCIM, audit, policy).
Why Augment
  • Front-row seat to the next wave of software development in Enterprises.
  • Massive impact surface: your work will define how developers experience AI inside their editor and terminal.
  • High-talent, fast-moving team that values taste, speed, and customer impact.
You’ll Love This Role If
  • You’re a strong operator with sharp product taste for developer tools — you care deeply about how things feel and work for developers.
  • You enjoy making founder direction real—turning vision into crisp roadmaps, polished launches, and coherent experiences.
  • You care about launch quality as much as feature velocity—docs, website, and UX details matter to you.
  • You’re excited to be hands-on now, then hire and coach a small PM team as the product scales.
You Might Not Enjoy the Role If
  • You expect clear structure or formal processes to drive execution. We value context and ownership over ceremony.
  • You prefer to operate with full clarity before moving. The agentic development space moves fast and is often ambiguous.
  • You find prioritization painful when everything seems important. You’ll need to make trade-offs confidently and explain them clearly.
  • You lean away from the messy, cross-functional parts of shipping—aligning design, engineering, docs, and website for a “ready” launch.
  • You’re looking for a purely strategic or vision-setting role. This is an operational leadership role that amplifies and executes founder-led direction.
Employee Benefits:
  • Flexible work hours
  • Competitive salary & Equity
  • Tools Stipend
  • Health, Dental, Vision and Life Insurance
  • Short Term and Long Term Disability
  • Unlimited Paid Time Off + Holidays. We focus on trust and ownership, not time in the chair
  • Numerous company social events
