About the role

  • Define AI product strategy in service of Honeycomb's vision
  • Synthesize AI trends, customer needs, and technical capabilities into clear strategic recommendations
  • Help the product organization understand where and how AI creates genuine customer value vs. where it's hype

Requirements

  • Experienced in product management with at least 1+ year shipping AI-powered products
  • Track record of taking AI features from concept to customer impact, including things that didn't work
  • Deep understanding of how engineering teams actually build, deploy, and operate AI systems (not just theoretical knowledge)
  • Familiarity with current AI/ML techniques and the judgment to know when they're applicable vs. overhyped
  • Ability to synthesize disparate signals (research, customer feedback, technical trends) into coherent strategy
  • Comfort operating with ambiguity and making decisions without perfect information
  • Strong judgment about when to say "no" or "not yet" despite exciting technology
  • Enough technical depth to have earned respect from engineers and architects and the collaborative approach to drive work forward in tandem with the triad
  • Excellent written and verbal communication—can explain complex ideas clearly to varied audiences
  • Ability to influence without authority across product, engineering, and go-to-market teams
  • Comfort presenting to customers, executives, and technical audiences
  • Demonstrated ability to stay current in fast-moving domains (AI is evolving weekly, not yearly)
