Identify high-value customer needs and improve the end-to-end assistant experience.
Use analytics, experimentation, customer research, and AI evaluations to identify friction and prioritize improvements.
Develop growth strategies that improve discovery, onboarding, activation, repeat usage, and retention.
Partner with AI/ML and engineering teams to improve grounding, latency, reliability, safety, and overall assistant quality.
Lead cross-functional initiatives and communicate priorities, tradeoffs, and results to senior leadership.
What You’ll Bring
Product management experience building and scaling consumer mobile products.
A strong track record of improving product quality, adoption, engagement, retention, or customer satisfaction.
Experience building conversational AI, or other intelligent consumer experiences.
Understanding of generative AI product development, including evaluation, grounding, safety, latency, and model limitations.
Strong analytical skills and experience using data, experimentation, and customer insights to drive decisions.
Ability to define strategy, navigate ambiguity, and influence across technical and business teams.
Strong communication and cross-functional leadership skills.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with large language models, natural-language interfaces, tool use, or agentic systems.
Experience with consumer growth, lifecycle engagement, or product-led growth.
Experience with AI evaluation, human review, and production monitoring.
Experience in automotive, mobility, connected devices, or related consumer ecosystems.
