Senior Product Manager

About the role

We're looking for a Senior Product Manager to partner directly with our Founder as the bridge between leadership and the engineering organisation. This is a high-leverage operator role - you'll ensure momentum, clarity, and coordination across engineering projects while also shaping what gets built and why. It's an ideal opportunity for someone who aspires to be a future technical founder or product leader, with a front-row seat to building a high-velocity, AI-first product org from the ground up.

Responsibilities

• Execution and Coordination
• Work closely with the Founder to track, unblock, and prioritise projects across engineering
• Coordinate execution across AI, full-stack, security, and survey programming teams
• Maintain clear visibility on progress across all verticals - what's moving, what's stuck, and what's next
• Build and maintain internal systems for planning, review, and documentation across the engineering org
• Product and Strategy
• Define and own the product roadmap for your areas, grounded in customer insight and business impact
• Represent the Founder in async updates and customer or partner calls when needed
• Drive decisions on what to build, what to defer, and what to cut - with clear reasoning behind each call
• Contribute to architecture and design reviews, ensuring product decisions are technically sound
• Standards and Operations
• Help enforce standards around code quality, system design, and security without becoming a bottleneck
• Drive operational improvements that keep the team moving fast without adding bureaucratic overhead
• Structure messy, ambiguous problems into clear scopes, owners, and timelines

Requirements

• 3-5 years of experience in product management or a technical leadership role within an engineering org
• Technical enough to engage meaningfully in architecture discussions - experience in full-stack, backend, or AI systems is a strong plus
• Track record of driving delivery in fast-moving environments without relying on heavy process
• Strong ability to take ambiguous problems and turn them into clarity, visibility, and progress
• Excellent communication: comfortable pushing back, asking hard questions, and aligning stakeholders with different priorities
• Process-oriented but not bureaucratic - you focus on momentum and outcomes, not documentation for its own sake
• Experience working directly with founders or in a chief of staff / founding PM capacity
• Strong opinions about how high-performing engineering and product teams should operate
• Prior experience in a zero-to-one or early growth stage environment
• Familiarity with AI-driven products, LLM systems, or data-heavy SaaS platforms
• Why Metaforms
• Work directly with the Founder and CTPO - your decisions will shape the company's product direction and engineering culture
• Build at the frontier of AI product development, not conventional backend SaaS
• High-agency team where speed, quality, and customer outcomes drive every decision
• Zero-bureaucracy culture: direct access to leadership, fast feedback loops, and real ownership from day one
• Well-funded and financially stable, with a clear roadmap and the runway to execute on it
