Product Strategy and Operations, Manager - New Verticals

About EliseAI

EliseAI develops cutting-edge agentic AI technology for industries fundamental to our lives: housing and healthcare. Everything is built on the foundation of health and home. Broken systems or ineffective processes in these domains have a disproportionate impact on our quality of life and society’s overall wellbeing. Conversely, any solution or technology that solves problems in these areas will have an impact that ripples far beyond them.

That’s the only kind of impact we are interested in having at EliseAI. If you get excited by the thought of working really hard on these kinds of problems, then EliseAI is the right place for you.

We recently raised a $250 million Series E round led by Andreessen Horowitz to accelerate this mission.

About The Role

As New Verticals Manager, you will lead the charge in exploring, developing, and launching new products and market opportunities from zero to one, driving significant impact on our growth and market positioning. This role demands strategic thinking, deep market insight, cross-functional collaboration, and a track record of successfully launching new products or entering new markets. You will play a pivotal role in shaping product direction and go-to-market strategies.

Key Responsibilities

Product and Market Strategy:

• Spearhead initiatives to identify, evaluate, and launch new product opportunities, conducting thorough feasibility analyses, market research, and competitive assessments

• Develop and own comprehensive go-to-market strategies, including market segmentation, positioning, pricing, and launch execution

• Lead cross-functional teams across Product, Engineering, Go-To-Market (GTM), and Customer Success to ensure alignment and successful execution of product launches and expansions

• Continuously monitor market trends, customer feedback, and competitive dynamics to iterate and optimize product strategies and offerings

Strategic Project Leadership:

• Develop and manage detailed project plans with clear timelines, milestones, resource allocation, and success metrics

• Own accountability for product strategy outcomes, ensuring project milestones are met and strategic objectives are achieved

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

• Partner closely with internal stakeholders, including senior leadership, product managers, engineers, marketing, sales, and customer success teams, to ensure cohesive execution of strategic initiatives

• Provide strategic insights and recommendations to senior leadership based on thorough analysis and market intelligence

• Attract top-tier talent to join our driven team

Requirements

• 5-6 years of experience in product strategy, product management, management consulting, corporate strategy, or similar roles within high-growth tech startups or established technology companies

• Proven success in leading new product launches or entering new markets, demonstrating clear strategic vision and executional rigor

• Exceptional analytical and problem-solving skills, with a data-driven mindset

• Autonomous and ownership-oriented, comfortable navigating ambiguity and driving clarity in fast-paced environments

• Relentless focus on execution and delivering tangible business outcomes

• Willingness to work in person at our office 4-5 days a week

Why Join

Growth and impact. It’s not often that you can get in on the ground floor of a funded (unicorn!) startup that’s scaling. That means that instead of following a playbook, you’ll be writing it. Every single day you will be challenged to identify how we can scale and execute on it. You’ll learn what works when you succeed and what doesn’t when you fail. Either way, the rest of the team will be here to support you.

Benefits

In addition to the growth and impact you’ll have at EliseAI, we offer competitive salaries along with the following benefits:

• Equity in the company in the form of stock options

• Medical, Dental and Vision premiums covered at 100%

• Fully paid parental leave

• Commuter benefits

• 401k benefits

• Monthly fitness stipend

• A collaborative in-office environment with an open floor plan, fully stocked kitchen, and company-paid lunch.

• Fun company social events through our Elise and the City program

• Unlimited vacation and paid holidays

• We'll cover relocation packages and make the move exciting, not painful!
