## About the role

As a Strategic Product Manager at Forus, you will take on some of the company’s most important and ambiguous product problems before they have established teams, roadmaps, or obvious solutions. Your work may include building internal AI and automation products, creating new operational capabilities, developing the first version of a product for a new customer category, or incubating an entirely new business line.

## What they're looking for

- Experience working in a product management, software engineering, or forward deployed role on a team that required outcome ownership (e.g., fast-growing startup, a 0 -> 1 business line at a high-performing organization)
- Track record of taking ambiguous, cross-functional problems and independently driving them through to measurable outcomes
- Technical judgment and the ability to reason about software, data, AI systems, and operational processes
- Hands-on experience using AI and technical tools to prototype, analyze, automate, or build rather than relying exclusively on specifications and engineering resources
- Strong written and verbal communication that allows you to be an effective participant in both internal debates and external relationships
- Track record of moving quickly, finding shortcuts, and going to unreasonable lengths to deliver on goals
