Associate Product Manager - AI

Associate Product Manager, AI. Ship cool AI features weekly. This is not a JIRA-grooming role. You will live between three things: our customers, our AI roadmap, and the product itself. You will write the spec, build the prototype, get it in front of users, and then push it to release. Loop. Repeat.
If you're the kind of person who opens Cursor at midnight to test an idea before writing the PRD, keep reading.
The core responsibilities for the job include the following:
AI features, end-to-end:
Own a slice of the AI roadmap agents, LLM workflows, and signal pipelines from problem to release
Write tight PRDs that engineers actually want to build from
Prototype yourself before handing off Cursor, v0 Lovable, n8n, raw API calls, or whatever gets it real
Make the feature feel cool, not just functional. Demo-worthy from day one.
Release velocity:
Drive weekly releases. Scope ruthlessly. Cut what doesn't ship.
Sit with engineering through build; unblock fast, decide fast
Own launch: changelog, in-app comms, customer outreach, the works
Customer obsession:
Talk to customers every single day. No exceptions.
Be the first responder when a user has a question, an idea, or a complaint; you turn that into product fuel
Run discovery calls, watch session recordings, read every support thread, and feed insights straight back into the roadmap
Close the loop personally; the user who asked for it should hear from you when it ships
Founder collaboration:
Work directly with the founders on what to build next and what to kill
Own the narrative for your features, internal and external
Requirements:
1-2 years of experience in APM, founder's office, early-stage operator, or you built and shipped something real on your own. What you've built matters more than the logo on your resume.
You ship. You have a prototype, side project, agent, app, or hack you can show us. Built with AI tools? Even better.
You write well. Crisp PRDs, crisp Slack messages, crisp customer replies. This is non-negotiable.
You're addicted to customer conversations. You'd rather get on a call with a user than sit in a planning meeting.
You're obsessed with AI. You've tried every model, every tool, every agent framework. You have opinions.
You're fast. You'd rather ship a rough v1 today than a perfect v1 next month.
Strong signal if you:
Have built and launched something AI-powered (agent, LLM app, fine-tune, automation), even a side project.
Are comfortable in Cursor / Claude Code / v0 / Lovable and can vibe-code a prototype.
Have worked in or around GTM tools, sales tech, RevOps, or B2B SaaS.
Plan to start your own company someday. This role is the closest thing to it.
