Sr. Technical Product Manager

SR. PRODUCT MANAGER – AGENTIC AI APPLICATIONS

At the company, we’re building AI systems that don’t just respond—they reason, plan, and act. We’re looking for a hands‑on Product Manager who can dive into technical detail, sit shoulder‑to‑shoulder with developers and data scientists, and still keep an eye on the big picture. This is a role for someone entrepreneurial—comfortable with ambiguity, fast cycles, and the hustle it takes to turn bleeding‑edge AI into production systems that actually work.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Drive Product Development

• Translate cutting‑edge AI concepts (LLMs, RAG, agentic frameworks) into production‑ready workflows.

• Sit with engineers and data scientists during debug sessions, design reviews, and brainstorming to drive clarity and unblock progress.

• Sweat the details: from model evaluation metrics to API contracts, you’ll know enough to ensure product quality and performance.

Own the Roadmap & Execution

• Prioritize ruthlessly, balancing user value, technical feasibility, and time‑to‑market.

• Define, scope, and ship features end‑to‑end in tight iterations.

• Push features across the finish line—removing blockers, making fast trade‑offs, and hustling to deliver.

Customer & Market Insight

• Partner with Customer Success to understand how real users interact with our platform—and where they get stuck.

• Translate messy customer workflows into elegant technical solutions.

• Identify opportunities for Joist AI’s agentic tech to transform how work actually gets done.

Leadership & Culture

• Champion a “get it done” culture that values speed, rigor, and accountability.

• Bridge technical and business teams with clear, no‑nonsense communication.

• Help shape the DNA of our product org at a company where the AI frontier is our playground.

WHAT YOU BRING

• 5+ years of product management or technical leadership in SaaS/AI/ML products.

• Strong technical fluency—you understand LLMs, embeddings, RAG, and can engage in technical design sessions with engineers.

• Demonstrated ability to debug, problem‑solve, and make informed decisions in ambiguous situations.

• Entrepreneurial drive: you’re comfortable with imperfect information, quick pivots, and hustling to deliver value.

• Relentless attention to detail and pride in shipping high‑quality, production‑ready systems.

Bonus Points

• Prior experience as a software engineer, data scientist, or in a highly technical role.

• Exposure to agent frameworks, ML pipelines, or workflow automation.

• Experience working in early‑stage startups where speed and ownership are everything.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Competitive salary and equity.

• Flexible PTO and remote work options.

• A seat at the table in defining how autonomous AI gets built and shipped.

• Access to top AI tools, research, and compute resources.

• The chance to help shape a company where product, engineering, and AI innovation move as one team.
