Product Strategy & Operations Manager with Startup or Founder Exp.

We are looking for a Product Strategy & Operations Manager with 5-7+ years of experience to own and scale new product verticals at one of AI's fastest-growing companies. You'll operate like a mini-GM - equal parts strategist, operator, and customer champion - in a high-ownership, zero-to-one environment where results are expected fast.

What will you be doing?

Own a product vertical end-to-end - from customer acquisition and sales demos to implementation and process-building

Get in front of customers directly: selling, supporting, and implementing to drive early traction

Build and scale internal processes so cross-functional teams (Product, Eng, GTM, CS) can take over as the product matures

Lead go-to-market strategy including market research, positioning, pricing, and launch execution

Collaborate cross-functionally with high EQ - aligning stakeholders without stepping on toes, and pulling everyone in the same direction

Key Requirements

Startup or founder experience - you've worn many hats and thrive in chaotic, fast-moving environments

Strong cross-functional working skills with the EQ to influence without authority

Proven ownership mentality - you claim problems as your own and drive solutions regardless of fault

B2B SaaS or enterprise-level experience (consumer background is a weaker fit)

Willingness to work on-site in NYC 4-5 days/week and travel as needed
