Lead Product Manager, Agents

Help Scout · Boston, MA · 2 wk ago
Marketing$172k–$198k/yrFull-time

Responsibilities

  • Own the full product roadmap for the Agent pillar — unified Agent backend, Agent Drafts, AI Answers, Agentic Actions, Docs automation, and workflow amplification
  • Drive the consolidation of Drafts and AI Answers onto a single backend system, enabling the full Agent capability set to compound from a shared foundation
  • Define the experience and configuration UX that moves customers up the trust ladder — from "let me review that draft" to "handle it without me"
  • Shape how the Agent monetizes: resolutions, drafts, handoffs, and docs improvements are all outcome-priced surfaces; you'll own the logic for how customers experience and pay for each
  • Partner closely with the Intelligence and Conversations PMs — Agent needs signals from Intelligence and coordination with Conversations to work as a coherent system, not a feature stack
  • Spend real time with customers: understanding where they trust the AI, where they don't, and what would move them
  • Work with GTM and CS to ensure the Agent story is clear, the adoption motion is tight, and customer feedback loops back into the roadmap

Requirements

  • You have shipped AI-powered products and understand how they fail — not just how they work when they work
  • You think in outcomes, not features. "Resolutions handled" and "drafts sent" are more interesting to you than "new settings page launched"
  • You have strong monetization instincts. You can design a pricing surface that reflects real customer value and explain the tradeoffs when you can't
  • You're technically fluent enough to build genuine trust with engineers — you don't need to write the code, but you can hold a meaningful conversation about system architecture and make better decisions because of it
  • You know how to move customers along a trust curve: what confidence signals matter, how to sequence capability rollout, and when to hold back a feature because the experience isn't ready yet
  • You're genuinely fluent with AI tools and treat them as part of your craft — for research synthesis, strategy testing, rapid prototyping, and customer signal analysis. You have a point of view on where these tools are heading and how they're changing the shape of PM work
  • You understand that when execution is cheap, judgment is the bottleneck. Your highest-leverage hours are spent on strategy and prioritization — defining what's next and what's not — not on driving the build
  • You're an excellent writer. Help Scout runs on writing, and you make your thinking visible in one-pagers, briefs, and narratives that move decisions forward
  • You've worked in B2B SaaS and understand the difference between building for support teams vs. building for end consumers

Qualifications

  • Experience owning the product roadmap for a complex, cross-functional product area
  • Strong background in AI and machine learning, with a deep understanding of how AI can be applied to improve customer experiences
  • Proven track record of driving successful product launches and managing cross-functional teams
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Ability to prioritize and execute on multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining a high level of attention to detail

Skills

  • Product management
  • AI and machine learning
  • Customer experience
  • Collaboration and teamwork
  • Communication and presentation skills

Benefits

  • Competitive salary and an internal, transparent salary formula based on market data
  • Flexible time off – you choose the holidays and vacations that make sense for you
  • 12 weeks of fully paid parental leave for all new parents, including adoption and foster care
  • A home office stipend to help you get set up and productive
  • A co-working stipend up to $300 a month if you choose to work out of your house
  • A yearly professional development stipend of $1,800 to help you grow in your craft
  • If you’re in the U.S. or Canada, we offer top tier health insurance for you and your dependents.

Pay

  • $233,084 per year

Schedule

  • Fully remote
