• Define product requirements, user journeys, workflows, and product specifications.
• Break complex problems into simple, actionable product requirements.
• Work closely with Engineering and Design teams to build and launch product capabilities.
• Collaborate with AI and Data teams to identify opportunities to apply AI to enterprise workflows.
• Analyze product usage, customer feedback, and business data to identify opportunities for improvement.
• Research competitors, emerging technologies, and industry trends.
• Define product features, use cases, acceptance criteria, and success metrics.
• Participate in product discovery, prioritization, sprint planning, and product reviews.
• Build prototypes and proof-of-concepts where appropriate.
• Experiment with Generative AI and AI Agents to discover new ways of solving customer problems.
• Make product decisions using structured thinking, data, and customer insights.
• Own product initiatives from problem definition through execution and launch.

• Experience building a product or side project from idea to implementation.
• Understanding of APIs, databases, cloud, microservices, or modern software architecture.
• Demonstrated ability to take an idea from problem to solution to prototype to execution.

What Makes You Successful

We are looking for engineers who:

• Think in problems, not just features.
• Ask Why are we building this? before asking How do we build it?
• Can understand both the customer problem and the technical solution.
• Are comfortable going deep into technology.
• Use data and structured reasoning rather than assumptions.
• Are excited by AI and constantly experiment with new technologies.
• Can operate independently in an ambiguous environment.
