Principal Product Manager, Compliance & Licensing

About Bizee Bizee (formerly Incfile) has helped nearly two million entrepreneurs start and run their businesses. Now we're building what comes next: an AI-powered Entrepreneur Operating System that helps founders launch, operate, stay compliant, and grow with less friction and more confidence. We're profitable, founder-led, and operating at a clear inflection point. The Opportunity The U. S. licensing landscape is a fragmented mix of federal, state, county, city, and special-district requirements each with different rules, agencies, forms, fees, and renewal cycles. Multiply that by hundreds of industries and the research universe becomes extremely complex. Historically, solving this meant large research operations reading government sources by hand, and even then the customer got little more than an instruction set. Bizee already sells business-license research through our formation funnel, with strong existing demand. Distribution demand is also emerging through our partner ecosystem and Bizee Pro. The ambition is not a better report. It's an always-on compliance platform that understands what a business does, determines what it needs to stay licensed, helps complete the work, monitors what changes, and keeps the business compliant over time. The Role This is an internal-founder role, not a coordinator role. You serve as the single-threaded owner combining the responsibilities of a senior Product Lead and GM. Reporting through Product with a business-wide mandate, you own the initiative end-to-end including customer experience, technology, and economics.

You are also accountable for outcomes across Product, Engineering, AI/Data, Compliance, Operations, Partnerships, and Finance. Your first mission: prove or disprove the thesis in 90 days. You'll lead a small, senior, cross-functional pod to answer four questions with evidence: - Can we get the answer right? Build an evaluation framework that determines whether the AI/ML system identifies the complete and correct license and permit set for a business measured across states, counties, cities, industries, and complexity levels. - Can the system know when it might be wrong? Establish the operating loop: AI extraction → ML classification and confidence → deterministic rules → human review → labeled feedback → continuous improvement. Full autonomy is not the initial goal; calibrated confidence is. - Do the economics work? Own the build-versus-buy and unit-economic model, from cost per AI research run and human-review rates to filing, renewal, and recurring-subscription economics. - What business are we building? Validate demand across four distribution surfaces including Bizee. com, Bizee Pro, Partner APIs, and agent-ready workflows and turn the evidence into a product, pricing, packaging, and sequencing recommendation. At the end of 90 days, your scope expands your scope to scaling the business, with a path toward GM, Compliance. What You'll Own - The business case end to end: customer discovery, market opportunity, product strategy, pricing and packaging, unit economics, build-versus-buy, distribution strategy, and the Phase 0 investment case - The design of a conversational discovery experience that captures the business context required for an accurate compliance determination - The strategy for turning Bizee's archive of historical license orders and completed reports into a labeled evaluation set, training data, and the seed of a compliance graph (in partnership with Legal, Data, and Compliance) - The regulatory operating model which includes accuracy thresholds, liability framework, human-review requirements - The Phase 0 pod: a small, senior, cross-functional team whose combined output you're accountable for. Requirements What We're Looking For We're looking for a builder and business owner, not a coordinator.
