Founding Product Manager [33064] (San Francisco)

We're looking for our Founding Product Manager (PM), our first non-technical hire, who will translate ambiguous customer pain points into crisp product bets, drive 0→1 execution, and help define the product category for AI-native time-series.

The Role

Own 0→1: Translate raw, technical, and often ambiguous customer needs into sharp product hypotheses, ship fast, and validate impact.

Be the Connector: Work hand-in-hand with world-class engineers, researchers, and lighthouse customers to validate and scale winning patterns.

Grow into Leadership: Stand up lightweight product processes now, then build and lead the PM function as we scale into the next stage.

First 6–12 months (IC focus):

• Own product planning, roadmap, and execution in close collaboration with engineering, sales, legal and market
• Partner with early customers to validate hypotheses, prioritize features, and iterate quickly
• Drive new customer discovery through cold outreach, user research, etc.
• Introduce lightweight product processes (sprints, specs, internal tooling) to support execution
• Contribute to go-to-market strategy planning
• Metrics & KPIs: define clear, measurable KPIs for product success (user acquisition, engagement, retention, and overall product impact)
• Transition to product leadership as we grow

What we're looking for:

• 4–7 years of product experience, ideally in early-stage startups or deep tech / B2B / ML / dev tools
• Startup mindset: thrives in ambiguity and moves with urgency. Bias for action — builds fast, ships MVPs, and learns from real-world usage. Works side-by-side with engineering and design to iterate quickly, adjust course based on customer feedback and early market signals, and continuously refine product-market fit
• Strong technical fluency — comfortable working with technical engineers and researchers (no coding required)
• Experience building early-stage products from zero, with a bias for fast, thoughtful execution
• Excellent communication skills and ability to shape clear product narratives
• Hands-on with customer discovery and prioritization
• Ambitious and driven — wants to build, not just manage
