The role
Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Take ownership of product direction and delivery for major areas of a technical software offering, partnering daily with engineers and domain experts. You will build the roadmap yourself, validate ideas early through prototypes and small experiments, and make trade-off decisions across several competing factors.
What you'll do
- Lead product strategy and execution for one or more product areas, from finding the right problems to shipping production-quality solutions.
- Turn customer needs and domain workflows into detailed specifications and reusable building blocks that engineers can develop against.
- Partner with machine learning engineers and subject matter experts to define how automated agents behave and when they pass work to people.
- Prototype concepts and run small experiments so users can react to something before an engineering sprint starts.
- Decide priorities by weighing engineering effort, quality of model output, value to customers and commercial impact.
What we're looking for
- Experience as a product manager at a high-growth B2B SaaS or AI startup.
- A track record of launching technical B2B software or AI products.
- Hands-on collaboration with engineers on a product with significant technical depth.
- A STEM undergraduate degree, ideally in computer science from a top university.
- Proficient coding ability, or power-user skill with AI coding tools.
- At least one standout signal on your resume, such as a rigorous degree, a founded business, a successful personal project or a notable publication.
- An average tenure of 1.5 years or more across past employers.
- A first-principles approach, a builder mindset and intellectual curiosity.
Bonus points
- Prior work on AI or agentic products.
- Former founder, or very early product hire at a startup.

- Unlimited paid time off and paid holidays
