Shape the Future of Advertising with AI Agents – Own Products That Don’t Exist… Yet.

Why this exists

We’re building the infrastructure that lets enterprises deploy AI agents at scale — not wrappers around someone else’s API, but the full stack: open-source self-hosted models, our own hardware, our own platform. We operate at the intersection of cutting-edge AI and the media & advertising industry, where decisions happen in milliseconds and scale is measured in billions of daily impressions.

We need a Product Manager who doesn’t just translate between teams — but who genuinely understands the technology, can sit in a room with data scientists and hold their own, and then walk into a client meeting and turn complexity into clarity.

What you’ll actually do

This is not a role where you maintain backlogs and attend standups. This is a role where you shape products that don’t exist yet.

• Own the product vision — from discovery through delivery for AI agent products in the AdTech and media space.
  You translate customer needs and build your own product vision on top of them, creating long term, scalable and profitable products. 

• Bridge business and technology — translate customer/stakeholder needs into product strategy and technical requirements that engineering actually wants to build.

• Talk to customers directly — understand their real problems, not the ones they think they have. Distill messy input into actionable specs. 

• Work shoulder-to-shoulder with data scientists, senior engineers,  marketing and senior management — our team is best-in-class, you need to keep up

• Solve problems, not escalate them — you see a gap, you close it. You don’t wait for permission or a Jira ticket

Who you are

We’re not looking for a specific degree or a perfect CV. We’re looking for a specific kind of person: 

• Technically fluent in AI/ML — you understand the basic principles of LLMs, GenAI, Agentic AI, and the open-source ecosystem well enough to have real opinions about product/agent design decisions.

• Basic understanding of the full stack — hardware (GPUs, compute infrastructure), model layer (LLMs), and application layer (APIs, UIs, integrations).

• Customer-obsessed and a natural communicator — you can run a discovery call, extract real requirements, and turn ambiguity into direction. You are driven by bringing structure and clarity into the daily work.

• A self-starter with high agency — you operate with minimal guidance and maximum ownership. You don’t ask “what should I do?” — you propose “here’s what I’m doing and why”, while still keeping alignment with the team.

• Energized by building, not managing — you get your hands dirty. Prototyping, writing specs, debugging requirements, testing with users.

• Experienced in advertising, media, or AdTech — you understand the ecosystem: programmatic, real-time bidding, audience targeting, and the business models that power it.

• 3–6+ years in product management — with meaningful exposure to AI/ML products or technically complex platforms.

The team you’re joining

This isn’t a team of generalists. You will be surrounded by people who are exceptional at what they do — and who expect the same from their product counterpart.

That said, this is not an academic lab. We ship. We iterate. We care about impact over elegance. If you’re the kind of person who thrives when working alongside brilliant people on problems that matter, this is the place.

What we offer

• Real ownership — no layers of approval. Your decisions shape the product

• A world-class team — colleagues who challenge you and make you better

• Cutting-edge technology — full-stack AI infrastructure you won’t find anywhere else

• Industry impact — products that reshape how advertising and media work at scale

• Flexibility — remote-first culture with the trust that comes from hiring adults

• Competitive compensation — because great people deserve great pay

Come be a part of our highly motivated team, united by a shared passion for digital processes!
