Distyl is an applied AI technology company partnering with the world’s most ambitious institutions to rearchitect critical operations for the frontier of AI. Our customers include the largest companies in telecom, healthcare, insurance, manufacturing, consumer goods, and global social organizations.
We research and deploy technologies that power AI-native operations — both for our partners and for Distyl itself. Our work spans research into self-constructing systems, the development of the most reliable execution of AI systems, and products that transform mission-critical workflows. As a result, Distyl's technologies affect some of the world's largest operations — from hundreds of millions of consumer interactions to tens of millions of supply chain transactions and millions of patient journeys.
Distyl is backed by leading investors including Lightspeed Venture Partners, Khosla Ventures, Coatue, DST Global, and the board-members of 20+ F500s. The results reflect this approach: a 100% production deployment success rate for our customers and one of the few enterprise AI companies to run a profitable business.

Distyl AI is seeking a Senior Platform Product Manager based in San Francisco or New York City to lead the strategy, development, and evolution of the platform that powers our enterprise AI deployments.

In this role, you will operate at the center of Distyl’s product and technology strategy, owning how we translate real-world enterprise use cases into scalable, reusable platform capabilities.

This is a highly strategic role for someone who thrives in high-ownership environments, is comfortable navigating ambiguity, and has a strong point of view on how modern AI platforms should be designed and scaled. You will play a key role in shaping how Distyl builds repeatable, extensible platform solutions that accelerate the delivery of production-grade AI systems.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the vision, roadmap and prioritization for Distyl’s AI platform, with a focus on capabilities that can be reused across customer deployments

• Partner with engineering, forward-deployed teams and customers to identify repeated needs and translate them into scalable platform features and abstractions

• Collaborate with leadership to align platform strategy with company-level growth and scaling objectives.

  
  

• 12+ years of experience in product management, with significant time spent in platform, infrastructure / technical product roles

• Experience building or scaling AI/ML platforms, LLM systems, or data infrastructure

• Strong technical fluency and ability to engage deeply with engineering on architecture, tradeoffs, and system design

• Familiarity with modern AI tooling, model deployment workflows, and evaluation frameworks

• Experience operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments with a high degree of ownership

• Ability to translate real-world customer needs into scalable product strategy

• Excellent communication skills and ability to influence across technical and business stakeholders

• The base salary range for this role is $180K – $250K, depending on experience, location, and level. In addition to base compensation, this role is eligible for meaningful equity, along with a comprehensive benefits package

• 100% covered medical, dental, and vision for employees and dependents
