JOB-1655

A Series B software company building AI tooling for scientific research and development teams is looking for a senior product manager. The role is to take a young, newly launched product for synthetic chemistry from early beta toward a proven fit with its market, with a lot of freedom inside that product area.

What you’ll own

  • Strategy and delivery for the new chemistry product, from roadmap choices to rapid iteration on the live beta
  • Frequent time with laboratory scientists and beta users: interviews, observation and turning pain points into simpler workflows
  • Close work with engineers and designers to ship polished, easy-to-use features, including quick prototypes built with AI tools and Figma
  • Support for the sales team on early-stage deals, including roadmap walk-throughs for senior science leaders at prospective customers
  • Roughly a fifth of your time spent with the head of product on which pieces of your area should become shared platform capabilities

About you

  • Three to five years as a product manager on user-facing products, not internal tools, infrastructure or platform work
  • Experience at a Series A to D vertical SaaS or agentic AI startup
  • Comfort working with AI assistants and agents day to day, and able to prototype in Figma and similar tools
  • Proven user research and journey mapping skills
  • A strong drive to simplify complex workflows for non-technical or less tech-savvy users
  • An ownership mindset; a science background and a move into product from consulting or customer-facing engineering are both welcome

Hybrid in the San Francisco Bay Area. Visa transfers (H-1B) are considered; no new sponsorship.
