About This Role

Zof AI is seeking a Senior AI Product Manager to own product decisions where model behavior meets business value. This role owns the trade-offs that define AI products: cost versus quality versus latency, what to automate versus verify, and what "good enough to ship" means, backed by evals rather than intuition. The ideal candidate has shipped AI-powered products, communicates precisely, and can hold both customer outcomes and model realities in view at once.

Responsibilities

• Own product direction for AI features from problem to shipped outcome.

• Own the cost, quality, and latency trade-offs of AI capabilities.

• Define what "working" means and back it with evals, not intuition.

• Translate customer and market needs into a credible product roadmap.

• Partner with engineering on what to build, buy, or call an API for.

• Prioritize ruthlessly in a small, fast-moving team.

• Communicate product decisions clearly to the team and customers.

• Measure adoption and outcomes, and iterate on evidence.

Requirements

• Experience shipping AI or ML-powered products.

• Working understanding of model capabilities, limits, and economics.

• Strong product judgment and prioritization.

• Ability to reason about quality metrics and evaluation.

• Excellent written and verbal communication.

• Comfort operating hands-on in an early-stage environment.

• High ownership and follow-through.

• Willingness to use AI tools deeply in day-to-day work.

Nice to have

• Technical background or ability to read code and technical docs.

• Experience with developer tools, QA, or enterprise software.

• Experience taking an early product to market.

• Experience working directly with enterprise customers.
