We are seeking a senior, deeply technical product leader to own Search and Curated Experiences Alpha Sense. Search is the front door to a corpus of hundreds of millions of business documents, and the relevance, ranking, document-type coverage, filtering, and performance you own sit underneath every product surface. Curated Experiences define how Alpha Sense's content, functionality, and intelligence show up in pre-built experiences that act as a launchpad for our customers' research - everything from company profiles and industry profiles, to monitoring and beyond.

This is a leadership role, not a feature role. You will set the search strategy, own the metrics, and be the person the organization turns to drive impact with both Search and Curated Experiences. You will lead a small team, including a domain-expert for Curated Experiences. We expect you to own these programs end to end, with the judgment, drive, and initiative to take them all the way.

Own both Search and Curated Experiences:
Relevance, ranking, query understanding, document-type coverage, filters, latency, and reliability across every surface that depends on search are your ownership areas, alongside adoption and engagement of company profiles and future new curated experiences.

Define the strategy:
Set and defend a roadmap that balances relevance quality, coverage, and performance against clear business priorities.

Build evaluation and measurement:
Stand up the metrics, benchmarks, and experimentation needed to know whether search is getting better, and to prove it.

Collaborate across teams:
Partner closely with Knowledge Graph, Super Analyst / AI, Engineering, and Design so that search and the experiences built on top of it move together.

Lead and grow a team:
Manage and mentor the curated-experiences / domain-expert PM, set clear ownership, and raise the bar for the search org as it grows.

Execute and deliver:
Lead the end-to-end product lifecycle - from strategy and experimentation through launch, post-launch analysis, and iteration.

Deeply Technical:
You have built search and relevance systems at scale - e.g., a Google Search-caliber background or equivalent depth in ranking, retrieval, query understanding, and evaluation. You can reason fluently about representation, freshness, quality, and system-design tradeoffs.

Strong Ownership & Drive:
You take programs end to end and operate autonomously. You set direction, make the calls, and are accountable…
