Job Level
Tech Stack
About the role
- Drive Product Execution
- Own the product roadmap: prioritize ruthlessly, write clear specs, and work with design, engineering, and learning teams to ship
- De-risk builds by breaking work into meaningful increments that let us learn as we go
- Make tradeoffs when scope, timeline, and resources collide and communicate those tradeoffs clearly
- Go Deep on the Details
- Write detailed requirements that align design, engineering, and go-to-market teams
- Understand the technical constraints and possibilities, and work side-by-side with engineering
- Engage directly with users, and gather user feedback, usage data, and partner insights to inform decisions
- Build Product Process
- Establish rituals, artifacts, and communication patterns that help a growing team stay aligned
- Create clarity about how product decisions get made, without slowing the team down
- Document what's working so others can build on it
- Collaborate Across Teams
- Work with Learning and Partnerships to translate field feedback into clear priorities and simpler designs
- Coordinate with design to ensure what we build is usable, not just functional
- Refine Strategy as You Learn
- Pressure-test strategic assumptions against what you see in the product and hear from users
- Surface when priorities should shift, and make the case with evidence
- Help leadership make better decisions by bringing clarity to ambiguous situations
Requirements
- Have 7+ years of product management experience, including at least one early-stage or high-growth environment
- Have led product development for AI-powered or technically complex products
- Get energy from the details: you'd rather write a clear spec than a strategy deck
- Ship fast without cutting corners: you know how to de-risk builds and make incremental progress
- Thrive in ambiguity and can make good decisions with incomplete information
- Communicate crisply: you can explain complex tradeoffs to technical and non-technical audiences
- Care about education, equity, or mission-driven work; this isn't just a job, it's a chance to shape how AI shows up in schools
Benefits
- Competitive Pay & Benefits
- Includes salary, healthcare, retirement, generous time off, and opportunities for professional growth
