• Experience owning a product P&L or directly contributing to revenue growth, cost optimization, or other measurable business results.
• Proficiency in Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, or a similar language, with the ability to build prototypes and evaluate technical solutions independently.
• Strong understanding of modern software architecture, including APIs, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), data modeling, authentication, CI/CD, observability, and system design trade-offs.
• Experience reviewing and influencing architecture and technical design decisions as a trusted partner to engineering teams.
• Experience using product analytics and customer insights to inform roadmap decisions and measure adoption.
• Experience building or managing platform, API, or developer-focused products.
• Proven ability to influence product, business, and technical decisions at the Director and VP level without direct authority.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, including authoring PRDs, technical briefs, one-pagers, and executive communications.
• Experience serving as a Product Owner in Agile/Scrum environments and leading cross-functional teams through ambiguity and change.

Nice To Haves

• Strong product instincts and relentless curiosity about users and how they work.
• Intellectual honesty, sound judgment, and a bias toward action.
• Ability to simplify complex ideas and communicate them with clarity.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguous environments and creating direction where none exists.

Responsibilities

• Develop a deep understanding of customers, stakeholders, and business challenges, translating insights into product strategy and execution.
• Define, build, and evaluate AI-powered solutions, balancing user needs, technical feasibility, business impact, and responsible AI practices.
• Partner with engineering and business leaders to shape product direction, influence key decisions, and drive successful outcomes.
