Our client is one of the fastest-growing AI startups in the U.S., backed by top-tier investors including Andreessen Horowitz and Accel, with a recent Series C raise of $131 million.

What You Will Do

As an Agent Product Manager (APM), you will serve as the tip of the spear in deploying next-generation AI agents directly with enterprise customers. Your role will blend elements of product management, customer strategy, and AI consulting. You won’t just ship featuresβ€”you’ll deliver outcomes that drive business value.

You will:

  • Own customer deployments of AI agents from kickoff through post-launch optimization

  • Interface directly with customers, understanding their business needs and tailoring agent behavior through prompt engineering and strategic guidance

  • Work hand-in-hand with Engineering, Product, and Sales to ensure smooth deployment, adoption, and scaling of AI agents

  • Capture learnings from the field and convert them into structured product feedback to improve the company’s core platform

  • Manage technical complexity, internal alignment, and customer expectationsβ€”all while keeping velocity high and ambiguity low

  • Operate as a full-stack business and product thinker: you’ll collaborate with every function and influence company direction

This is an in-person role based in New York City with five days per week onsite.

Ideal Candidate Background

  • 5–10 years of experience in high-performing environments (e.g., McKinsey, Bain, BCG, investment banking, private equity, or strategy roles in hypergrowth startups)

  • Deep experience working directly with clients or customers on technical and strategic problems

  • Track record of collaborating cross-functionally with product, engineering, sales, and customer success teams

  • Strong problem-solving instincts and ability to thrive in ambiguous, high-velocity environments

  • Prior product, bizops, or strategy experience at a venture-backed startup

  • History of rapid promotion or outsized responsibility in past roles

  • Excellent communicator with clear business storytelling and structured thinking

Preferred

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical discipline from a top-tier university

  • Familiarity with LLMs, AI prompting, or conversational AI systems

  • Experience deploying AI solutions or working in a technical consulting capacity

  • Former founders or early-stage startup operators encouraged to apply

  • Passionate about working in person and building relationships across the org

Compensation and Benefits

  • Base Salary: $200,000 – $285,000

  • Equity: Competitive with strong upside potential

  • Performance Bonus: Included in total comp range

  • Visa Sponsorship: Available for eligible transfer candidates

  • Work Schedule: Full-time, in-person in NYC (5 days/week)

  • Total Comp Potential: $211,050 – $300,300+

This is a rare opportunity to be at the forefront of AI deploymentβ€”where product strategy, technical depth, and business impact converge. If you're energized by complexity, crave ownership, and want to work with cutting-edge technology in a high-talent environment, this role is for you.
