Location: US (Remote or HQ Hybrid)
Job Type: Full-time

• Own product management as a capability— roadmap, inbound, outbound, and UX. The flows, the interaction design, the experience: yours, not a partner team's.
• Strategy is a collaboration — noone person owns it. Innovate constantly through the lens of the vision and drive the integration of that innovation into the strategic direction of the products.
• Actively build product— not the rule of the job, but a constant,strategicurgentpractice. Prototypes, UX, working software: you pick the moments where making the thing is the highest-leverage move and take them without asking — handing the last mile to the team when that's the right call, carrying it yourself when it isn't.
• Challenge legacy processes;
  
  Use AI/agents to compress cycle times and automate work thatshouldn’trequire humans.
• Drive outbound: positioning, competitive teardowns, why-we-win narratives.
• Drive inbound: discovery, customer interviews, ruthless prioritization.
• Push what youlearnbuilding and selling back into the shared strategy — a living hypothesis the whole team evolves together.
• Prototype what customer scan'tyet articulate.

• You'rea career product manager who outgrew the role with your agentic evolution and mastery, shook off itsboundariesand took matters into your own hands.
• Youdon'tjust define product direction,you execute on it aggressively. You speak in artifacts and prototypes, anddeliveredfeatures. AI multiplies your hands and permeates all aspects of your day.
• You are more than just an AI-native PM.

• Identity is your center of gravity: credentials, authentication,human,machine, and trust and risk. You think constantly about how the world is built on identity and is core to the enterprise function.
• Post-quantum literacy: you grasp the shape of the problem — crypto agility, algorithm transitions, migration realities — and reason credibly about solution paths. PKI depth is a bonus; reasoning about the space and how it manifests is the bar.

• The agentic evolution of the complete PM discipline, inbound, outbound, UX, from research through interaction design, and beyond.
• An active, recent building practice — prototype to pull request — deployed by strategic choice, not by exception or emergency.
• AI-native fluency : LLMs, agents, skills,agenticworkflows, design andcodegenas force multiplier sand used more than any other "tool".
• Competitive instinct — youreada market, find the wedge, articulate the advantage, and drive it.
• Strategic range: equally comfortable in a pull request as a board deck — and equally energized when the best strategic idea in the roomisn'tyours.

• All three modes, fluidly: free solo, small-pod, or a force multiplier across the teams.
• Strategy as a team sport: you innovate relentlessly, then drive that innovation into the direction — arguing through the vision, building on others' contributions as readily as your own.
• The pull toward building — codebase included — is constant; acting on it is your deliberate, strategic call.
• You'rea self-starter to the point of needing restraint. Youwon'tfind it here.
• Yousee beyond every requestto the underlying problem— return morevaluethan was asked.
• Extreme ownership of outcomes.
