About the Company
Our partner is an AI search platform that helps businesses appear in AI‑generated search results. Beyond the software platform, they provide forward‑deployed engineering that builds custom attribution models for large enterprise customers, integrating deeply with each customer's revenue and CRM data. They work with some of the world’s largest brands on substantial enterprise contracts and rank in the top tier of startups for growth and revenue. The team is small, exceptionally talented, and holds a very high bar. This is a true ground‑floor opportunity in a market measured in the hundreds of billions.
The Opportunity
This hybrid role is roughly half client‑facing consulting and half product management. About 30% of the time is spent managing a handful of enterprise accounts, onboarding them, running the customization process, and driving real results. The remaining time is dedicated to acting as a product manager: building the product roadmap based on client needs, prototyping new products and agents to help the company scale faster, and spinning up production prototypes to hand off to engineering. You will report directly to the founder. The pace is intense, the work is hands‑on, and there is no fixed ceiling on growth.
