Senior Product Manager - X Stream
About the role
The Senior Technical Product Manager will own the end-to-end product roadmap for SLM fine-tuning, RLHF, evals, and ML-Ops capabilities within BAIC. They will work daily with ML engineers, platform engineers, applied scientists, and UX designers, translate advanced AI capabilities into clear platform abstractions and APIs, engage directly with strategic enterprise customers and design partners, drive build-vs-buy decisions and ecosystem integrations, define standardized, repeatable workflows for model adaptation, productize private model training and adaptation for enterprise customers with strong isolation, governance, and IP protection, lead platform support for PEFT-based fine-tuning (LoRA, QLoRA, adapters), enable human-in-the-loop learning (RLHF / RHFL) including feedback collection, labeling pipelines, and reward modeling, define and ship Eval frameworks, training, continuous fine-tuning to enable agentic workflows, operationalize trust, explainability, scale, and cost efficiency by partnering with internal and external stakeholders.
