We are building the frontier of enterprise AI, and we operate with the agility, speed, and creativity of a startup, backed by the scale of a global bank.
The Role
We are looking for a Product Manager who defies traditional boundaries. You won't just manage products; you will build, innovate, and lead. You will wear multiple hats—shifting seamlessly from whiteboarding to product strategy and execution. You need to be hands-on, highly resilient, and ready to get creative to solve unprecedented challenges in the GenAI space.

- Drive Planetary-Scale Impact: Lead the delivery of mission-critical AI platforms that serve the entire enterprise.
- Navigate Ambiguity: Thrive in ambiguous situations, bringing structure, clarity, and execution to complex challenges with competing priorities and limited resources.
- Manage the Chaos: Utilize strong organizational skills to manage multiple parallel workstreams effectively across distributed, fast-moving teams.
- Measure What Matters: Take a data-driven approach to program management, using metrics and scorecards to measure progress, drive accountability, and iterate quickly.
- Adapt & Overcome: Operate comfortably at a breakneck pace where priorities shift based on customer feedback, competitive dynamics, and technological breakthroughs.
Who You Are
- 10+ Years of experience is a mandate.
- A Resilient Innovator: You are hands-on, creative, and don't back down when things get tough. You are comfortable rolling up your sleeves to get the job done.
- An Influential Leader: You have experience managing programs that require organizational change. You know how to "work through others" and drive alignment among senior stakeholders, influencing effectively without relying on direct authority.
- A Master Communicator: You possess excellent written and verbal communication skills, capable of distilling complex AI concepts into clear business value.
- A Voracious Learner: You have an intrinsic desire to learn, rapidly fill in your own missing skills, and an equally strong talent for sharing those learnings clearly and concisely with the rest of the team.
- Mission-Driven: You are deeply passionate about the challenges and responsibilities of bringing frontier Generative AI capabilities to enterprise customers safely, securely, and at scale.
