[Hiring] Head of Product, AI @Productboard

Role Description

Head of Product, AI Product. Reports to the CTO. Based in Prague, Brno, or remote within Europe with regular time in Prague.

Productboard is the agentic product system for product teams. At its center is Spark, a product management agent that connects to a company's customer feedback, strategy, competitive intel, and codebase. Spark finds the highest impact opportunities, writes delivery-ready specs, and runs the workflows a team builds as Skills. More than 4,000 companies run their product work on Productboard.

You own Spark and everything agentic underneath it:

• The agent, the harness it runs in, the quality bar it has to clear, the insights pipeline it reads from, the specs it writes, the MCP surface other agents use to reach it, and the design system every surface of the product is built from.
• The PMs on those surfaces and every product designer report to you.
• You lead design for the whole product.

In the future, most of the work done in Productboard will run through agents, via MCP and APIs. Some UI will always stay. You decide which, and the screens that stay have to be excellent.

What you own

• Spark, our agent.
• What it does, what it asks, when it acts on its own and when it waits for a person.
• The agent harness and orchestration.
• Skills, scheduled tasks, human in the loop capability, model choices and cost per task. The runtime every agentic feature executes in.
• AI experience.
• Spark UI, human in the loop UX and generative UI. How a person sees, steers and corrects agent work.
• AI quality.
• Feedback analysis and insights.
• Product specs.
• MCP servers.
• Boards, roadmaps and dashboards.
• Design for the whole product.

How you work

• Our CEO owns product strategy and the context behind it: where the product goes and why. You own the roadmap and the decisions for your domains within that strategy.
• Our Chief AI Officer sets direction and raises the bar on anything agentic, across the company.
• Your peer is the Head of Product, Enterprise Platform.
• You bring the problem before the solution.

Why this matters for your career

Our engineers already build with agents. An engineer claims a feature, writes the spec with Spark, hands the code to Claude or Codex, steers it, and delivers. Review moved upstream to the plan.

• Low risk changes merge on an agent's review alone.
• You will help us run product the same way: the agent drafts, the PM decides what ships and everyone creates working prototypes.
• The practice you will run is ahead of what most product orgs describe in decks.

First six months

• Spark has a written quality bar, an eval suite that runs on every change, and a weekly review you chair.
• Customer feedback attaches to the right capability and feature on its own, at a precision product teams trust.
• For every place Spark shows up in the product, you have decided whether people use it through our UI, headless via MCP from an agent like Claude, or both.
• Spark behaves the same way on every surface.
• The design team has a critique cadence, a hiring plan and a written ladder, run by you.
• The Productboard MCP server is listed as a connector in the directories that matter.
• You know what share of Productboard work runs headless, through MCP and APIs, against what runs through our UI.

Who you are

• A very strong PM domain and use case expert who has shipped a trusted agent, with great UX DNA.
• You know the product management job cold.
• You have shipped an agent where the hard problem was trust.
• You run AI quality as a product discipline.
• You have great UX DNA.
• You build with agents every day.
• You are fluent in headless.
• You have a computer science or engineering background.

Not a fit if

• Your AI experience is model tuning or research.
• You are a platform PM.
• You are a brand or visual design leader.
• You cannot judge product design work yourself.
