Senior PM, Core

What you'll do

Strategy & Delivery

• Define the vision, roadmap, and success metrics for your core product area — spanning applications such as Notebook, Worksheet, Tasks, and Inventory — prioritizing ruthlessly based on user impact, competitive dynamics, and data.
• Lead end-to-end product development from problem definition through launch and iteration, working backwards from customer needs to form clear product conviction and shippable execution plans.
• Drive rapid concept prototyping and validation — building and showing demos early and often, internally and externally, to test hypotheses and establish product-market fit with design partners and lighthouse customers.
• Anticipate and shape the evolution of core applications toward agentic workflows, identifying where AI can materially improve how scientists work and sequencing capabilities into experiences customers will actually adopt.

Execution & Collaboration

• Spend significant time with scientists, customers, and internal stakeholders to understand how they actually work — conducting hands-on user research and translating those insights into prioritized product decisions.
• Partner deeply with engineering, design, and AI/ML teams to ship high-quality, intuitive, and reliable workflows, sweating the details of interaction models, UI behavior, performance, and adoption paths.
• Collaborate closely with go-to-market, solutions, support, and forward-deployed teams to ensure product strategy reflects enterprise realities and addresses real customer pain points — not internal assumptions.
• Navigate ambiguity and create structure where the right answer is not obvious — forming hypotheses, testing them quickly, and updating the approach when data demands it.

Leadership & Impact

• Drive clarity and alignment among key stakeholders across the organization, including executives and adjacent teams, on priorities, tradeoffs, and product direction.
• Bring a high bar for product craft — not only identifying the right opportunities but being deeply invested in how they should work in practice, from workflow design through to adoption.
• Serve as a credible cross-functional partner to engineering, design, data, and commercial teams, earning trust through competence, follow-through, and a bias toward outcomes over outputs.

You will have

• 5+ years of product management experience shipping products that users love, with a track record of owning product areas end-to-end in B2B SaaS, enterprise software, or highly technical platforms.
• Experience in science-focused vertical SaaS;
• Demonstrated ability to translate complex, ambiguous user needs into clear, prioritized roadmaps and polished product experiences.
• Strong product sense and user empathy — you know the difference between a product that works and one that delights, built through direct and repeated exposure to users.
• Comfort prototyping in design or code to validate ideas before committing to full build cycles.
• AI-native mindset — you actively use AI tools in your own product craft and have strong intuition for how AI products should behave and where they fall short.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to engage with engineers on tradeoffs, partner with design on interaction details, and present strategy to executives.
• Collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively across teams and time zones.
