This Senior Product Manager role focuses on leading a pod of Forward Deployed PMs within an AI/ML service environment. You will standardize implementation workflows and bridge the gap between client deployments and core product development.
What you’d own
Standardizing requirements, prototypes, and workflow decisions for all active deployments
Acting as the primary escalation point for technical and project hurdles
Translating recurring deployment patterns into a shared operational playbook
Managing pod capacity and coordinating workload across client implementations
Who it’s for
A fit if you…
✓You have experience in Forward Deployed, Solutions Consulting, or Implementation roles
✓You excel at identifying patterns to create scalable systems from scattered data
✓You are comfortable leading through influence rather than direct reporting lines
✓You can balance high-level strategy with granular, hands-on execution daily
Not for you if…
✗You prefer a pure product role without client-facing or implementation components
✗You want a traditional people management role (this is functional leadership)
✗You prefer highly defined processes over building playbooks where none exist
Reading between the lines
The 'Forward Deployed' and 'Escalation Point' requirements suggest you will frequently handle high-pressure, urgent issues from client-facing teams.
The requirement to 'step into active client deployments when stakes are high' implies a need for high adaptability and the ability to perform under pressure.

JOB SUMMARY
Provide functional leadership for a pod of 4-5 Forward Deployed Product Managers embedded across client implementations
Set the operating standard for how requirements, prototypes, and workflow decisions get made across every active deployment
Act as the escalation point between the FDPM pod, Technical Account Managers, implementation engineering, and core product
Turn scattered patterns across deployments into a shared playbook and a steady feed of learnings back into the core product
Not a reporting-line manager; the pod's people management sits with the Director of Product
RESPONSIBILITIES
- Functional Leadership & Standards: Set and enforce high quality bars for requirements, prototypes, and documentation across the pod. Review and sanity-check briefs and workflows before they reach clients or engineering.
- Escalation & Cross-Functional Alignment: Serve as the primary escalation point between the FDPM pod, Technical Account Managers, implementation engineering, and core product leads. Unblock FDPMs on complex or contested requirements.
- Playbook & Product Feedback Loop: Build and maintain a shared operational playbook (templates, workflow patterns, prompting approaches). Identify recurring deployment patterns to drive structured feedback directly into the core product roadmap.
- Pod Capacity & Hands-On Support: Coordinate staffing and workload across active deployments, flagging capacity gaps to the Director of Product. Step into active client deployments directly when stakes are high or team members are out.
- Leadership Reporting: Surface pod-wide progress, metrics, and operational blockers to product and delivery leadership.
QUALIFICATIONS AND JOB REQUIREMENTS
- Product & Execution Focused: Strong balance of product mindset and hands-on execution; leads through influence, authority-by-expertise, and example rather than formal management authority.
- Systems & Pattern Thinker: Skilled at spotting recurring trends across distinct client contexts and translating them into scalable, generalized solutions.
- Technical & Curious: Hands-on with modern AI tools, workflow design, prompting, and rapid prototyping—capable of critically reviewing others' technical output.
- Dual-Level Operator: Seamlessly shifts between high-level pod strategy and granular execution within a single deployment on the same day.
- Builds practical structure and standards where none exist, and successfully drives peer adoption.
- Demonstrates high ownership, strong judgment with incomplete information, and a decisive bias to action.
- Knows when to step in to solve a problem and when to step back to let an FDPM own the outcome.
- Excellent cross-functional communicator across technical, non-technical, client-facing, and executive audiences.
- Experience as a Forward Deployed PM, Solutions Consultant, Implementation Lead, or Technical Services Lead within SaaS, AI, or startup environments.
- Proven track record leading initiatives, workstreams, or informal teams in fast-paced, client-facing settings (direct people management is not required).
WHAT WE OFFER
- 100% Remote Work: Enjoy the freedom to work from the location that helps you thrive. All it takes is a laptop and a reliable internet connection.
- Highly Competitive USD Pay: Earn an excellent, market-leading compensation in USD, that goes beyond typical market offerings.
