Director of Product Management, IgniteTech (Remote) - $400,000/year USD

You're a product executive who delivers. You can break down a defined product vision into minimal viable increments and ship enterprise-quality AI capabilities quickly without devolving into roadmap performance art. You've already survived the "AI fixes everything" wave, understand its failure modes, and excel at building regardless. If your strongest work emerges when you control outcomes from start to finish—deciding, prototyping, hardening, launching, and observing actual customer usage—continue reading. The majority of the software world treats AI like window dressing: layer a chatbot on existing infrastructure, declare a "copilot," label it innovation, and pray customers don't probe deeper. Our approach is the reverse. We're constructing AI-native capabilities that justify their existence by generating quantifiable enterprise value, and we execute at a velocity that makes conventional planning cycles appear masochistic. Our advantage lies in condensing Sell → Design → Build cycles, uncompromising scope discipline within a set direction, and production releases that satisfy enterprise requirements without extended coordination bureaucracy. This role centers on rapid shipment of enterprise-quality, AI-native product capabilities to customers. It requires hands-on prototyping with current AI tooling to confirm feasibility before engineering solidifies the implementation. It means owning delivery from vision refinement through production release, making definitive tradeoffs, and shipping within fixed constraints. It is not "bolting on AI features" absent a clear value case. It is not a feature-request triage queue, a requirements-document assembly line, or a presentation-deck career track. It is not abstract vision declarations, model performance numbers divorced from user outcomes, or blind faith that AI functions flawlessly. You'll work alongside engineering and function as a player-coach: part implementer, part decision authority, zero part process facilitator. You'll convert an established vision into actionable scope, prototype rapidly to eliminate uncertainty, and push releases that customers can genuinely deploy in real enterprise settings. If you've launched original enterprise software, leveraged AI as an execution mechanism, and remain composed when enthusiasm meets production reality, you'll gain the freedom to move quickly and the accountability to ensure durability. If that feels like liberation rather than burden, please apply. What You Will Be Doing • Shipped Product Capabilities: Original or substantially improved product features released to production and available to enterprise customers • AI-Driven Prototypes: Functional prototypes built using AI as the principal execution mechanism to confirm viability before production hardening • Enterprise-Grade Production Deployments: Completely hardened, secure, dependable deployments that satisfy enterprise criteria for quality, usability, and security What You Won’t Be Doing • Portfolio or roadmap-focused product leadership • Dependence on customer discovery as the main source of direction • Process-intensive or governance-centered product roles • Using AI as an assistant instead of a core execution layer Director Of Product Management Key Responsibilities • Rapid delivery of enterprise-grade, AI-native product capabilities into customer hands Basic Requirements • At least 5 years of experience shipping new products or major capabilities end-to-end • Experience owning product delivery from vision refinement through production deployment • Experience prototyping, testing, and iterating products or features using modern AI tooling • Experience ensuring enterprise-software standards for quality, security, reliability, and deployment About IgniteTech World-class talent. 100% global remote.
