What you'll do
- Own the customer-facing AI experience end-to-end. Define the core flows, ship them, instrument them, iterate. The quality of these flows is the product.
- Make the AI feel trustworthy. Small business owners won't hand over real work to an AI that doesn't show its reasoning, respect their constraints, or earn trust gradually.
- Pick the right leading indicators. Activation, time-to-value, weekly engagement, owner intervention rate, attributed outcomes.
- Partner across product surfaces. Our customer-facing experience sits on top of shared platform capabilities used by other parts of the business.
- Be opinionated about AI UX. Decide where LLMs make the product magical and where they make it brittle.
- Use AI to build, not just to ship. Make AI-assisted research, prototyping, and iteration the default working modes for the team.
- Get out of the building. Talk to small business owners weekly. Bring their voice into every roadmap conversation, loudly.
- Communicate up and across. Pitch the roadmap to executives, jam with engineering on architecture, defend tradeoffs to design.
Who you are
- 8+ years in product, with at least one specific example of 0-to-1 product you took from concept to scale. SaaS experience required; SMB experience strongly preferred.
- Genuinely AI-fluent. You've shipped LLM-powered features in production.
- Direct experience building agentic systems (not just AI features bolted onto existing products).
- Sharp on AI UX. You have strong opinions on when AI should be visible vs. invisible.
- Metrics-driven without being metric-blind. You build clear input β output β outcome pyramids.
- Customer-obsessed about SMB owners specifically.
- Bias toward action. You'd rather ship a rough version this week and learn.
- Direct communicator. You give feedback kindly and clearly.
Nice to haves
- Background in SMB SaaS or marketing technology.
- Familiarity with multi-channel customer engagement.
- Experience with PLG motions and self-serve onboarding.
- A point of view on how AI is reshaping SaaS distribution and product design.
