Product Manager, Core Products

Infilla•San Francisco, CA

7h•$140,000 - $200,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Infilla is looking for a Product Manager to deepen Infilla's core products, Forum and Calculator, into daily-use tools that can be configured without engineering. Infilla’s mission is to make more housing happen faster by making permitting unremarkable. The U.S. is short 4-7 million homes, and local permitting is one of the top bottlenecks with approvals taking months to years. Infilla is building the modern permitting platform that helps local governments review projects faster, more consistently, and more transparently. Customers include San Francisco, New York City, and the State of Delaware, among others. We’re backed by Basis Set Ventures, Base10 Partners, Urban Innovation Fund, SHAKTI VC, 20Growth, Bloomberg Beta, and 20+ founders/operators who’ve built products at scale.

Requirements

Product judgment. Prioritizes ruthlessly and cuts scope — runs field research and uses product analytics to identify the core problems worth solving, and leaves the rest. Designs for how work actually happens.
Ownership with urgency. Independently gets features from spec to trained users fast, including the unglamorous last mile of training, migration, and chasing adoption after launch. Treats shipping as how you learn and would rather be wrong in front of users than right in a doc.
Collaboration. Has the design taste and technical depth to hold their own as a respected equal to design and engineering. Works well with users and stakeholders, whose stated requests can conflict, to get to the need under the request and to push back diplomatically when needed.
Systems thinking. Designs for the customer that hasn't onboarded yet. Knows which differences belong in the core product and which belong in configuration.
Written communication. Writes specs, updates, and decisions that a busy reader understands in one pass. Structures a clear and cohesive argument, states the recommendation up front, and cuts what doesn't serve the reader.
AI fluency. Uses AI daily as a working tool — prototypes with it, drafts specs and synthesizes research with it, and keeps experimenting as the tools change. Has a clear view of where AI belongs in the product and in the work, and where it doesn't.
Has fully owned a complex B2B web product as an IC PM
Has been a founding or early PM at a seed or Series A company
Has owned search or content retrieval as a core part of a product
Has shipped AI features users actually rely on, and uses AI in the work itself

Nice To Haves

Has worked in a regulated or procedurally dense domain — planning, construction, insurance, healthcare billing, etc.
Has shipped a mobile responsive product built to WCAG AA 2.1 standards
Has made a product deployable by non-engineers
Is a former founder beyond being a solopreneur or consultant

Responsibilities

Instrument and baseline what success means for Forum and Calculator, including search quality, and set the targets
Make Forum a tool staff open on most working days — search is good enough that they reach for it instead of asking a colleague
Make our core products configurable so a new jurisdiction can go live without an engineer writing code
