About the Role
We're looking for our first Product Manager who can think like a founder, prototype like an engineer, and ship like a product owner.
In this role, you’ll turn frontier AI into delightful, everyday consumer experiences—owning the loop from customer insight → prototype → launch → iterate. We care less about titles and more about builders who can own problems end-to-end.
Responsibilities
Shape agent experiences, partnering with research/engineering to turn capabilities (tool-use, planning, memory, multi-agent orchestration) into lovable user journeys
Run user research and translate insights into clear specs + flows
Prototype using Figma or Loveable—and when useful, contribute lightweight frontend code to unblock teams (TypeScript preferred)
Run A/B tests, iterate fast, and communicate learnings with crisp writing and artifacts
Help us maintain our high bar for UX, safety, privacy, and reliability
Qualifications
Engineering background (prior SWE or very strong technical PM) -- comfortable reading and writing code
Experience with consumer and user research and working with engineers to translate findings into the product
Experience or strong understanding of agentic systems (prompting, multi-agent collaboration, tools, retrieval, orchestration, evals, and guardrails)
Bias to action, comfort with ambiguity, excellent product judgment, and ability to move from 0-1 quickly
-
Strong communication, crisp writing, and the ability to align research, design, and engineering
What makes us interesting
Small, elite team of ex-founders, researchers from top AI Labs, top CS grads, and engineers from top companies
True ownership You will not be blocked by bureaucracy, shipping meaningful work within weeks rather than months
Serious momentum We're well-funded by top investors, moving fast, and focused on execution
What we do
Ship consumer products powered by cutting-edge AI research, and
Build infrastructure that facilitates research and product, and
-
Innovate cutting-edge research that will open up new consumer product forms
