Product Manager

The Opportunity: Define the Product Vision for the Future of Engineering This isn’t a typical PM role. As the first Product Manager at Guild.ai , you will be a cornerstone of our team and culture. You’ll work directly with the founders to define not just the roadmap, but the product philosophy and operating model that shape everything we build. We are tackling one of the hardest—and most important—problems in software engineering: helping developers understand, evolve, and operate complex systems using autonomous and event-driven AI. You will be instrumental in translating this vision into products that engineers love, rely on, and advocate for. If you thrive in ambiguity, love engaging with customers, and feel energized by building 0→1 products that require both deep technical empathy and crisp execution, this role is for you. What You Will Do Own the Product Surface: Drive the end-to-end direction of core areas of the Guild.ai platform. Define product vision, strategy, and positioning while keeping an uncompromising focus on developer experience and workflow impact. Be the Voice of the Customer: Establish and lead customer discovery and research. Spend time with engineers, tech leads, and CTOs to deeply understand their pain points, mental models, and daily challenges—and turn those insights into product clarity. Translate Ambiguity into Action: Craft clear problem definitions, write thoughtful product narratives, and create specifications that align engineering, design, and GTM around what matters most. Collaborate, Build, and Ship: Partner with a world-class engineering and design team in a tight, fast-moving environment. You’ll help shepherd features from concept to launch, with a bias toward iteration and learning. Define Product at Guild.ai : You won’t just run a backlog—you’ll help build our entire product muscle. From process to metrics to decision frameworks, your work will set the standard for how Guild.ai builds, learns, and scales. Influence Company Strategy: Your insights will play a critical role in shaping our long-term roadmap, go-to-market strategy, and vision, ensuring that customer-driven thinking is at the core of our direction. What You Will Bring A proven track record of building and shipping impactful products, ideally in developer tools, infrastructure, or B2B SaaS Deep empathy for engineers and comfort engaging directly with technical audiences Experience translating complex workflows or technical systems into clear product strategies Strong analytical abilities, using both qualitative research and quantitative metrics to inform decisions A founder’s mentality—comfortable with ambiguity, energized by building, and accountable to outcomes Exceptional communication skills that create alignment across technical and non-technical partners Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-ownership environment Bonus Points Technical background or hands-on experience working closely with engineering teams Experience with AI/ML or agentic/autonomous systems Familiarity with Git-based workflows, modern dev tooling, or platform/infrastructure products Experience helping define product processes at an early-stage startup Benefits & Perks Significant equity in an early-stage, venture-backed startup Comprehensive Health Benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision) Flexible PTO to ensure you have the time you need to recharge
