Alex is one of the fastest-growing startups to come out of its YC batch with strong traction. We’re revenue-generating, well-funded, and backed by premier investors with years of runway.
We’re building the future of hiring. Our AI recruiter conducts live job interviews, helping companies get deep hiring signals faster and more efficiently than ever before. Customers love the product - and we’re just getting started.
We’re hiring our first Product Manager to act as an operator, not a process PM. This role is for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and takes real ownership of outcomes. You’ll work directly with the founders to turn enterprise customer pain into shipped product that drives revenue, retention, and trust.
This is a hands-on role. You will be close to customers, work with engineering, and accountable for prioritization decisions that materially affect the business.
Own product outcomes (not just roadmaps)
Turn company strategy and enterprise customer needs into a focused, executable roadmap
Define clear success metrics and ensure shipped work moves them
Make hard tradeoffs and say no - often
Be deeply embedded with customers
Join enterprise sales calls, onboarding, and escalation conversations
Talk to customers weekly to understand buying friction, adoption blockers, and trust concerns
Translate messy, qualitative feedback into clear product direction
Operate day-to-day with engineering
Partner closely with the CTO and engineers to scope, sequence, and ship work
Write concise, practical specs that optimize for speed and clarity
Unblock teams by making decisions quickly and revisiting them only when data changes
Be a forcing function for clarity
Surface tradeoffs early and explicitly
Keep the organization aligned as priorities shift
Clear product priorities shared across CEO, CTO, sales, and engineering
Faster shipping with less rework and thrash
Measurable improvements in enterprise activation, expansion, or deal velocity
Required
Nice-to-have
You prefer heavy process over speed
You need perfect data before making decisions
You want clear requirements handed to you
You’re uncomfortable pushing back on founders
You don’t want to work in person - we’re in office in San Francisco 5 days a week
Direct ownership over a mission-critical product at Series A
Close partnership with founders on real decisions
Opportunity to shape enterprise product foundations early
High trust, high accountability environment
We’re looking for a builder who wants to own outcomes, not a roadmap. If you’ve been the PM who actually made things work at an early-stage company, we want to talk.
