About the role
We're Cortea , a Berlin startup transforming audits with AI . Manual, document-heavy audits waste expert time while demand keeps rising. Our AI-powered software and specialized AI agents remove the repetitive work so auditors can focus on judgment. Backed by top-tier VCs with >10m funding, with a working product and paying customers, we're rapidly scaling. We value first-principles thinking, speed, trust, and kindness . We build side by side in our Berlin office . Your Role As an AI Product Manager, you'll work on products in our AI audit toolbox alongside engineers, designers, auditors and our founders. You'll spend your time understanding what auditors need, helping shape what we build next, and making sure we ship things that actually solve real problems.
Responsibilities
- Contribute to the discovery, definition, and delivery of products in our AI toolbox
- Talk to customers weekly to uncover pain points and validate solutions
- Prototype with AI tools (Cursor, Claude, v0, etc.) to test ideas in hours, instead of weeks
- Work tightly with engineering and design throughout the build cycle
- Help us understand the messy reality of AI capabilities (and limits) and turn that into product decisions: what's worth building, what's not yet ready, where humans stay in the loop
- Bring structure to the problem space: clear writing, sharp questions, useful PRDs
- What success looks like
- You've contributed to and shipped 3+ meaningful product bets within your first 6 months, learning through iteration and customer feedback along the way.
- You've gone deep on at least one core product area (e.g. a specific tool in our AI toolbox, a customer segment, our evals & quality framework, or the UX of agentic workflows) and become exceptionally strong in it
- You're trusted by founders, engineers, and customers to steward important product decisions
Requirements
- Have 4-7 years of experience, with at least 2 years in a product role
- Have shipped B2B SaaS products that real customers pay for and use
- Are AI-native in how you work: you use LLMs, agents, and AI tooling daily and have strong intuition for what they can and can't do today
- Have shipped at least one AI-powered feature or product and understand the unique product challenges (evals, latency, hallucinations, trust, UX of probabilistic systems)
- Go deep into context to truly understand user problems
- Are comfortable in early-stage startup chaos. High autonomy, high ambiguity, high speed
- Bonus points
- You've founded a company or shipped a serious AI side project
- You can read code, run small scripts, or fine-tune prompts yourself
- Experience in audit, compliance, legal, or another document-heavy professional services domain
