Job Description
Use Case Discovery & Validation
- Identify and prioritize agent use cases with high ROI: operational automation, coordination agents, internal task delegation, etc.
- Work with users and stakeholders to understand their workflows, challenges, and trust boundaries.
- Prototype and iterate agent behaviors in production-like environments to validate fit and reliability.
Experience with Support Tech Stacks:
- Deep familiarity with CRM and Help Desk platforms like Zendesk, Salesforce Service Cloud, or Jira Service Management.
Product Design and execution
Define the agent experience -from delegation to monitoring to escalation for real-world scenarios.
- Translate use cases into clear product specs: user flows, system interactions, prompts, safety requirements, and interfaces.
- Own the roadmap and ship iteratively: starting small, learning fast, scaling wisely.
- Build Help Centers, Knowledge Bases, or AI Chatbots that successfully diverted support tickets.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Collaborate with engineering to align product needs with agent platform capabilities (planning, memory, tool orchestration, retries, etc.).
- Partner with AI research to bring experimental features into real-world settings.
- Ensure the platform supports the complexity of applied, multi-step, tool-using agents.
Strategy & Metrics
- Define success metrics around outcomes - time saved, accuracy improved, failures recovered - not just clicks or sessions.
- Build product foundations that allow for vertical reuse, system generalization, and long-term scalability.
Qualifications
- Minimum Qualifications: 5+ years of product management or startup experience building technically complex, user-facing systems

- Strong communication, prioritization, and execution skills
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
