Staff Product Manager, AI
About The Position
We are seeking a Staff Product Manager to lead Copia's fast-growing AI vertical. You're passionate about turning a fast-moving vision into products customers love, and you're happy to sit with ambiguity, test your assumptions, and own the outcome. You've shipped AI products. You know the difference between a demo that impresses and a feature customers will pay for, and you've taken at least one from zero to revenue. You have strong product instincts about data. You look at the unique value Copia’s product platform has and see the AI products only we can build. You think in terms of durable advantage. You're as comfortable with go-to-market as you are with triaging the backlog. Pricing, packaging, where PLG fits, and the narrative that gets a buyer to value. You enjoy working shoulder-to-shoulder with the CEO and Sales on how AI fits the Copia story. The industrial automation space has lots of industry-specific information most are not familiar with. In your day-to-day, you will learn about a wide variety of industrial automation topics, and you're excited to dig in. You're interested in Copia's mission, you enjoy interacting with customers, and you want to drive impact in a foundational industry. We're looking for a strong contributor to the overall trajectory of the company.
Requirements
- A track record shipping AI products to real customers, including at least one taken from zero to revenue.
- Great instincts for prioritization and the ability to take an ambiguous problem and find a clear solution.
- Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain technical details to engineers, executives, and non-technical stakeholders alike.
- Comfort operating in early-stage ambiguity: new product line, design partners, no playbook.
- Eagerness to dig into a complex domain. You don't need to know PLCs on day one, but you should be excited to learn how factories run.
Nice To Haves
- Background in OT, industrial automation, controls, manufacturing software, or cybersecurity.
- Experience at a growth-stage, venture-backed startup, or time founding or operating an early-stage company.
- Experience with developer tools, source control, or DevOps platforms.
- Interest in manufacturing and hardware innovation.
Responsibilities
- Own Copia Copilot, our existing AI product: code documentation, legacy code interpretation, logic conversion, and outputs that pull from Copia repos and device backups.
- Develop a point of view on what Copia's context actually makes possible: the products only we can build because of what we collect and store for customers.
- Set the AI roadmap, moving from code intelligence today through incident response and into autonomous agents and OT cyber resilience.
- Write specs and work closely day-to-day with the AI engineering team.
- Own monetization and go-to-market: how new AI products and features get priced and packaged, and where PLG fits so customers reach value before a sales conversation.
- Build technical credibility with enterprise buyers, OT security advisors, and early design partners.
- Partner with the CEO and Sales on the strategic narrative and where AI fits in the Copia story.
- Distill a fast-moving vision into actionable, shippable products.
Benefits
- Competitive base salary commensurate with experience and location.
- Meaningful equity in an early-stage, venture-backed company.
- Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage.
- Unlimited PTO and company holidays.
- 401(k) plan.
- Commuter benefits and in-office lunches at our NYC HQ.
- Hybrid work environment with relocation assistance available for qualifying candidates.
- A high-trust, high-ownership culture where senior leaders are expected to set direction, ship, and grow the people around them.
