Productboard
Staff Product Manager – Core Product Experience (London / Dublin / Prague)
Be an Early Applicant
Own the core product experience for roadmapping, prioritization, and customer engagement. Set strategy, roadmap, metrics, and AI-first workflows; determine how Spark integrates with structured product interfaces; lead cross-team initiatives; partner with engineering on platform foundations; prototype using AI coding tools; engage customers; and mentor PMs. The role requires deep enterprise B2B SaaS, agentic product, systems thinking, research, information architecture, and technical product leadership experience.
Locations: Prague / Brno / London / Dublin
At Productboard, we're building the first agentic product management system. We're rethinking how product management is done in a world full of AI agents, and how we help our customers build what matters for their audience.
Every product team runs the same loop: understand customers, decide what to build, plan it, and bring everyone along. That loop is where Productboard lives for thousands of product organizations, and Spark, our AI agent for product teams, now does part of the work inside it. Whether an agentic product management system wins gets decided at one point: where the agent's work meets the prioritization call and the roadmap. We're looking for a Staff Product Manager to own that intersection and the core experience around it: a hands-on senior IC from an AI-first product company who owns roadmapping, prioritization, and customer engagement end to end, drives the initiatives that cut across teams, and personally carries the hardest product problems in the most-used part of the product.
You'll rethink what these workflows become in an AI-first operating model, when an agent does part of the work, ship the new default rather than a smarter version of the old one, and make collaboration in Productboard frictionless for everyone who uses it. Our users are product makers themselves. They know what good product management looks like, and they'll judge our product on whether it makes theirs better.
- Know the customer better than anyone. Understand how modern product organizations actually work, and where structure plus an agent removes work rather than adding tooling. Bring that to every prioritization call.
- Own the core experience for roadmapping, prioritization, and customer engagement. Set the strategy, roadmap, and the metrics that show these use-cases deliver real value, not novelty. Own how product teams and their stakeholders work together in Productboard, partner closely with designers so people reach the value they came for without friction, and say no when a local decision fragments the whole.
- Own the intersection where Spark meets structured UI. Decide where Spark acts and where it proposes, how people review and correct its work, and how its output lands in the roadmaps, priorities, and customer records teams already rely on, so Spark and the core feel like one product.
- Rebuild the workflows for an AI-first operating model. Rethink what roadmapping, prioritization, and customer engagement look like when an agent does part of the work, and ship the new default rather than a smarter version of the old one.
- Drive key initiatives across teams. Take on the problems bigger than any one squad: a roadmap that stays current as Spark processes feedback instead of being rebuilt every quarter, prioritization where Spark proposes and the team decides with full visibility into why, a customer loop that closes without a PM copying between tools. Frame them, align the org, ship, and measure whether it worked.
- Design durable platform foundations with engineering. Translate use-cases and needs into the necessary architecture, data model, or API changes, and build systems simple enough to use today and built to last.
- Prototype in code by default. When words aren't settling a debate, build the flow with AI coding tools and put it in front of customers.
- Raise the bar. Be the first user of Productboard and Spark for your own work, and mentor other PMs through pairing and example.
- 8+ years in product management, all of it hands-on. A senior individual contributor on complex products, with meaningful time in enterprise B2B SaaS, and a product area that is visibly better because you owned it.
- Proven owner of a core product area. You've owned strategy and outcomes for a foundational part of a product, such as planning, prioritization, or customer-facing workflows, and shipped systems other teams built on.
- Deep customer empathy. You're highly skilled at user research and you know how product organizations really work, including the messy parts.
- Systems thinker with technical depth. You reason comfortably about data models, APIs, and architectural trade-offs, and you can hold the whole system in your head while deciding about one part of it.
- Strong in information architecture, structured UI, and collaboration. You've built complex, structured products that many roles use together in different ways, in close partnership with Design, and you know how to make structure feel simple and working together feel effortless.
- Exceptional product and design taste. You know what frictionless feels like, you can tell simple from simplistic, and you hold the bar for the final experience, not just the spec.
- Agentic products experience. You've shipped products where an agent does real work on the user's behalf, wrestled with trust, control, and quality evaluation, and have real opinions on where agents belong in structured enterprise software and which parts of product management are worth rebuilding around them, because you use the newest ones the week they ship.
- AI-first in how you work. AI agents are how you research, synthesize, analyze, and prototype every day. When a debate needs settling, you build it with Claude Code, Cursor, or whatever fits. You've lived through a team's shift to AI-first ways of working and you know what it takes to make it stick.
- Founder mentality, low ego. You own outcomes end to end, turn ambiguity into clear decisions, stand up for what's right with challenging stakeholders, and work in the open with designers and engineers as peers.
- Strategic communicator. You can explain a hard structural change to an executive, an engineer, and a GTM team, and each leaves clearer than they arrived.
- Own the surface every Productboard customer uses every day, the roadmapping, prioritization, and customer engagement experience of the first agentic product management system, and decide what a product team's work looks like when an agent does part of it.
- Define what product management becomes in an AI-first operating model, for the product teams we serve and for how we work ourselves.
- Real scope, real ambiguity, real accountability, with the mandate and executive partnership to actually move the product.
- Operate the way the industry's best AI-first product teams do, with the tooling, velocity, and autonomy to match.
- Build for product makers, the most demanding, product-literate audience there is. When it works on them, it works.
