## About the role

This is a foundational hire — our first product management role pointed inward, with the company itself as the customer. You'll lead our company-wide AI transformation, with the developer platform as the center of gravity: helping define the agentic engineering stack and shaping the evolution of the developer & agentic experience at Scribd, Inc.

## What they're looking for

- 7+ years of product management experience, with notable focus owning developer tooling, AI platforms, or internal productivity tools
- Demonstrated success owning ambiguous, cross-functional product surfaces end-to-end — defining the strategy, sequencing the work, and shipping with engineering partners — without a pre-existing playbook
- Hands-on experience shipping real products with modern AI/LLM primitives — prompting, evals, tool use, agentic workflows, MCP, plugin or skill ecosystems, or comparable concepts. You have built things with these primitives, not just written PRDs about them
- Strong technical fluency to match. You can hold your own with engineers on system design, API tradeoffs, evaluation methodology, and agent architectures
- A track record of being a trusted technical-strategy partner to engineering leadership, with influence at the architecture and roadmap horizon
- Exceptional written and verbal communication. You can move between an engineering deep-dive, a function lead's strategy review, and an exec narrative in the same week
