Responsibilities

  • Enterprise AI Roadmap: Own and prioritize an AI-powered roadmap tailored to business applications across Sales (CPQ/Lead-to-Cash), Licensing/Entitlements, Finance (Revenue/Billing), Support (Agent Efficiency/TSE workflows), Customer Success (Retention/Adoption), or BI & Data Analytics.
  • Cross-Functional Workflow Automation: Partner with business leaders to identify manual bottlenecks and apply AI/Agentic workflows to streamline critical enterprise journeys (e.g., Quote-to-Cash, License Provisioning, Financial Reconciliation, Ticket Deflection, Health Scoring, and Data-Driven Insights).
  • Implementation Prototyping: Use AI-native tools (Cursor, Lovable, low-code platforms) to build and iterate on functional prototypes ("vibe-coding") that validate how AI agents interact with standard and proprietary enterprise APIs before handing off to Engineering.
  • Operational Standards & Trust: Define 'Error Budgets', accuracy guardrails, and compliance standards for AI outputs within business-critical systems, ensuring data privacy, financial integrity, brand voice, and system governance.
  • Golden Set & Telemetry Curation: Create and version-control "Golden Sets"—definitive datasets derived from internal enterprise data, logs, financial records, and customer telemetry—to grade AI model performance in real-world business scenarios.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Minimum of 12 years of related experience with a Bachelor’s degree; or 8 years and a Master’s degree; or a PhD with 5 years of experience in Product Management for Enterprise Applications, Business Systems, or Data/BI Architecture.

  • Expertise in the full software development lifecycle (SDLC), including Agile/Scrum methodologies, backlog grooming, sprint planning, and writing high-quality user stories.
  • Proven experience conducting 'Voice of Customer' interviews and customer discovery in complex B2B environments.
  • Technical Literacy: Mandatory hands-on experience using GenAI tools (vibe-coding) to turn prompts into functional prototypes in a constrained environment, using that artifact to validate requirements and reduce ambiguity for Engineering.
  • AI Application: Deep understanding of LLM mechanics and constraints (context windows, hallucinations, RAG architectures, Agentic workflows) specifically as they relate to enterprise business processes.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Platform Mastery: Experience with Salesforce AI (Einstein), Workday Extend, SAP BTP, Gainsight, or cloud data stacks (Snowflake, Databricks, Tableau/PowerBI).
