  • Own the full product lifecycle from opportunity identification and product strategy through requirements, experimentation, launch, adoption, measurement, and iteration.

We'd Love for You to Have:

  • 6 to 8+ years of Product Management experience, including 1-2 years of hands-on experience leading technically complex Agentic platforms and building AI agents in production.
  • Strong understanding of modern AI application architecture, including concepts such as:
         1. LLMs and reasoning models
         2. Retrieval-Augmented Generation and knowledge systems
         3. Agent orchestration and tool use
         4. AI evaluation and experimentation
         5. Prompt and context engineering
         6.Observability and production monitoring
  • Demonstrated ability to partner deeply with engineering and AI teams, making thoughtful products and technical trade-offs.
  • Experience taking ambiguous, zero-to-one products from concept through production and measurable adoption.
  • Strong analytical skills and ability to define metrics and evaluation frameworks for probabilistic AI systems.
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to translate between technical teams, customers, and senior leadership.
  • Experience with advertising technology, programmatic advertising, and marketplaces is preferred.
  • Experience building enterprise AI products where reliability, governance, privacy, security, and explainability are critical.
  • Familiarity with agent interoperability standards and architectures such as MCP, agent-to-agent communication, structured tool calling, and multi-agent systems. 

Qualification:
Should have a bachelor’s degree in engineering or an equivalent degree from a well-known institute/university.
