About the role

As a Senior AI Product Builder at ShipBob, you own the full build loop for your product domain: discovery, story/specs, AI-augmented prototypes, and production-ready PRs. This is not the traditional PM role — you are a builder. You use the AI development toolchain (e.g., Claude Code, Driver.ai) to understand ShipBob’s codebase architecture, generate working code against the actual repo, and ship with minimum engineering rework.

What they're looking for

  • Own the full product loop end-to-end: AI-augmented discovery → story/spec → prototype → production PR → outcome measurement. You are accountable for the outcome, not just the handoff
  • Run customer discovery yourself, use AI tools to synthesize research across tickets, interviews, behavioral data, and competitive signals
  • Demonstrate deep functional and technical knowledge of owned products end-to-end. Demo to merchants and partners yourself, understand competitive landscape and key differentiators
  • Use AI tools to analyze product metrics, identify usage patterns, and surface anomalies. Define success metrics and kill thresholds at spec time — without coaching
  • Maintain a prioritized roadmap ranked by impact × speed. Use AI tools to synthesize competitive intelligence, market trends, and customer insight into strategic inputs
  • Evaluate whether a proposed solution fits ShipBob’s architecture without Engineering translation. Understand service boundaries, data structures, and how merchant and partner API usage shapes data contracts
