DIRECTLY REPORTS TO:
Senior Product Manager
ROLE OVERVIEWWe’re looking for a Product Manager who can own a product area end-to-end, driving clarity from problem to delivery, and ensuring that what gets built actually creates value.
This role is ideal for someone who is strong in execution and decision-making, and is starting to develop strategic thinking and system awareness.
You will work closely with Engineering, Design, and stakeholders to deliver high-quality product outcomes, while leveraging AI to move faster and think better.
Beyond traditional product work, you are expected to have working knowledge of AI and emerging agentic approaches — understanding how AI tools can be used not just for productivity, but as part of a broader shift in how products are discovered, designed, and delivered.
You don’t need to be deeply technical, but you should be comfortable with:
- Using AI as a second brain for research, synthesis, and decision support
- Understanding the basics of agentic workflows (e.g., chaining tasks, context management, automation)
- Identifying opportunities where AI can improve product experience or internal velocity
This role is part of a broader transition toward an AI-first, agent-enabled product organization, where Product Managers are expected to continuously evolve how work gets done — not just what gets built.
DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
- Manage and prioritize the product backlog based on impact
- Translate business and user needs into clear product requirements (PRDs, specs, or intents)
- Work closely with Engineering to ensure smooth and efficient delivery
- Proactively identify and resolve blockers
2. Make High-Quality Product Decisions
- Break down ambiguous problems into clear, actionable decisions
- Balance trade-offs across scope, speed, and quality
- Use data, user feedback, and context to guide decisions
- Escalate with recommendations—not just problems
3. Align Stakeholders & Drive Clarity
- Act as the main point of contact for your product area
- Communicate priorities, timelines, and risks clearly
- Ensure alignment across Product, Engineering, Design, and Business teams
4. Drive Product Discovery & Improvement
- Validate ideas through user insights and data
- Continuously refine the backlog based on learnings
- Identify opportunities beyond incoming requests
- Ensure features solve real problems—not just ship
5. Leverage AI to Work Smarter
- Use AI tools to accelerate research, documentation, and analysis
- Improve speed and quality of product outputs
- Apply strong judgment on when to rely on AI vs human decision-making
- Continuously improve your workflow using AI
- 3–6 years of experience in Product Management (or equivalent role)
- Experience working with cross-functional teams (Engineering, Design, Business)
- Strong problem-solving and decision-making skills
- Ability to translate complex problems into clear requirements
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
- Experience working in Agile or similar environments
Expected (Not Optional, but Can Be Developed Further On The Job)
- Familiarity with AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, automation tools) and ability to apply them in day-to-day product work
- Experience working on SaaS, platform, or system-based products (e.g., HRIS, fintech, enterprise tools)
- Ability to write structured product artifacts (PRDs, specs, user stories) with clarity and minimal ambiguity
- Basic data literacy (ability to interpret metrics, validate assumptions, and support decisions with data)
- Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) or equivalent certification (e.g., SAFe Product Owner/Product Manager, Professional Scrum Product Owner), or demonstrated equivalent experience in Agile product environments
CORE COMPETENCIES
- Structured Thinking
- Product Judgment
- Execution Discipline
- Clear Communication
- Ownership Mindset
- Adaptability in Ambiguity
WHY JOIN US
- Be part of a team transitioning to an AI-first product organization
- Work on high-impact, scalable systems (e.g., HRIS ecosystem)
- Strong focus on growth, ownership, and real product thinking
- Opportunity to evolve into Senior PM and Product Leadership roles
You’ll thrive in this role if you:
- Take ownership beyond your job description
- Prefer clarity and structure but can operate in ambiguity
- Care about outcomes, not just output
- Are constantly looking for ways to improve how work gets done
- Are excited about using AI to become a better product builder
