Staff Product Manager
Role summary
We are seeking an experienced Staff Product Manager to own a core product area within our AI-native SaaS platform. This individual contributor role requires a deep understanding of product strategy, roadmapping, and execution, with a strong emphasis on leveraging AI tools in daily workflows. You will be responsible for driving product initiatives from conception to delivery, balancing innovation with incremental improvements, and defining success metrics. The ideal candidate is customer-obsessed, skilled in prioritization, comfortable with ambiguity, and a strong cross-functional partner, with at least 5 years of product management experience.
### Who you are
- You’re an AI-native, experienced product manager who thrives in high-ownership environments and knows what it means to truly own a core product area
- You’re energized by the full spectrum of the job — from iterating on live features to investing in greenfield 0→1 bets — and you have the judgment to know when to pursue each. You’re comfortable in ambiguity, decisive under pressure, and relentless about customer impact
- A product owner who has driven a core product area end-to-end — setting strategy and goals, building the roadmap, and delivering measurable outcomes
- Sharp on prioritization — you can look at a universe of possible bets and quickly identify what’s worth pursuing, what to cut, and why
- Skilled at right-sizing — you set appetite and scope work accordingly, balancing incremental improvements with bigger swings
- Impact and customer-obsessed — you keep the customer and business at the forefront, and know how to cut through the noise to focus on what truly matters to drive value
- AI-native in how you work — you use AI tools daily to move faster, think more clearly, and raise your own ceiling as a PM
- A strong cross-functional partner — you build trust with engineering, design, and partners, and know how to move a team forward with clarity and momentum
- A boundaryless builder — you prototype, automate, and ship using AI as your co-builder
- 5+ years of product management experience with meaningful ownership of a core product area
- Proven ownership of complex, cross-functional product initiatives with measurable outcomes
- Strong product judgment and prioritization — you know what to work on, what to cut, and can drive alignment while balancing speed, quality, and learning
- Deep comfort with product metrics, experimentation, and funnel analysis (SQL a plus)
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including with executive audiences
- A strong sense of ownership and bias toward action — you define the problem, you don't wait for it to be handed to you
- AI fluency in your daily workflow — you use AI tools to move faster, go deeper, and operate more like a full-stack product owner across discovery, design, and execution
- Experience building and shipping AI-powered product features (bonus)
- B2B SaaS background, especially in products with complex operational workflows (bonus)
### What the job involves
- This is an individual contributor role with significant scope and exposure. You will own a core product area and partner directly with our CEO and CTO to deliver product experiences that matter to the business and to our customers. You’ll:
- Own the strategy, roadmap, and execution for a portion of our core SaaS product — from iterating on existing features to defining and launching new ones
- Balance 0→1 product bets with high-leverage incremental improvements, knowing when to invest big and when to right-size
- Set appetite, scope accordingly, and hold your pod to a high bar on speed, quality, and customer impact
- Drive AI into the product in ways that genuinely improve outcomes for providers and families — not as a checkbox
- Define success metrics, track performance, and communicate progress and tradeoffs clearly to leadership
- Partner tightly with engineering and design to ship with urgency, unblock the team, and keep the pod focused on what matters
- Contribute to brightwheel’s product culture — raise the bar for product quality, velocity, and customer impact
