Product Management Recruiter

About the role

We’re hiring a Product Management Recruiter to help build the team shaping how people use our AI systems. You’ll partner with product leaders and collaborators across research, engineering, and design to recruit product managers who combine strong judgment, technical curiosity, and a deep understanding of users.

You’ll help define what effective product leadership looks like when both the technology and its applications are changing quickly. That means looking beyond familiar titles to understand what candidates have built, how they make decisions, and how they work through ambiguity.

What you’ll do

• Own recruiting for product management roles, from individual contributors to product leaders.
• Partner with hiring managers to define each role’s scope, expected impact, and essential capabilities.
• Develop sourcing strategies across relevant talent markets, including AI products, developer platforms, enterprise software, and consumer experiences.
• Conduct initial conversations that explore product judgment, customer understanding, technical fluency, and collaboration.
• Help design interviews that reveal candidates’ contributions, decisions, and results.
• Build compelling, accurate narratives about the work and tailor conversations to candidates’ interests.
• Manage candidate relationships, offers, and closing plans while keeping hiring teams aligned.
• Share market insights and pipeline trends to improve hiring decisions and search effectiveness.

What you’ll bring

• 4+ years of recruiting experience, including direct ownership of product management searches.
• A record of hiring strong product managers across different levels or product areas.
• An understanding of how product roles vary across platforms, consumer products, and enterprise businesses.
• The ability to distinguish individual contributions from team outcomes and communicate candidate strengths clearly.
• Experience partnering with senior leaders on role definition, assessment, and closing.
• Strong written communication, organization, and candidate relationship skills.
