[Hiring] Principal Product Manager @Osano

Role Description

We’re looking for a Principal Product Manager to own and drive one or more strategic product areas within Osano’s platform. This is a high-ownership, execution-focused position for someone who wants to operate like a mini-GM for a product area — balancing customer needs, product strategy, engineering alignment, operational rigor, and business outcomes.

This role has two major dimensions:

• Part 1 — Product Ownership:
  • You will fully own a product area, including roadmap prioritization, continuous delivery, and ensuring Engineering has complete clarity around what is being built, why it matters, and sequencing priorities.
• Part 2 — Principal-Level Operational Leadership:
  • As a Principal PM, you will help raise the bar across the Product organization by improving consistency, mentoring peers through influence, and helping shape how product development operates at Osano as we scale in an increasingly AI-native environment.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves decisively, embraces ownership, and prefers building and shipping over process-heavy product management.

Responsibilities

• Product Ownership & Execution:
  • Own roadmap, prioritization, and execution for one or more strategic product areas.
  • Operate with accountability for product outcomes, delivery quality, and execution consistency.
  • Define and execute 6–12 month roadmaps aligned with company objectives and customer needs.
  • Drive continuous shipping and iterative delivery with a strong bias toward learning and execution.
  • Ensure Engineering teams have clear understanding of priorities, sequencing, customer value, and business impact.
  • Partner closely with Engineering to maintain a predictable, high-quality release cadence.
  • Lead agile product development using Scrum, Kanban, or similar frameworks.
• Cross-Functional Leadership:
  • Partner closely with Engineering, Design, GTM, and Executive Leadership to align priorities and execution.
  • Communicate product strategy, tradeoffs, and roadmap decisions clearly across stakeholders.
  • Drive alignment in ambiguous or rapidly changing situations.
  • Help teams make decisive, informed product decisions even when data is incomplete.
• Operational Leadership & Product Excellence:
  • Raise the bar for product quality, consistency, and operational rigor across the Product organization.
  • Mentor and influence Product peers without direct management responsibility.
  • Help improve prioritization discipline, delivery practices, and product operating consistency.
  • Bring structure and clarity to fast-moving product initiatives.
• AI & Innovation:
  • Aggressively incorporate AI-native workflows into discovery, prioritization, product operations, and execution.
  • Leverage AI and agentic tools to improve team efficiency and product development velocity.
  • Partner with Engineering to adapt product practices for an AI-accelerated development environment.
  • Evaluate opportunities and risks introduced by rapidly evolving AI capabilities and technologies.

Qualifications

• 8–10+ years of Product Management experience in B2B SaaS or ISV environments.
• Proven experience operating as a senior individual contributor with ownership over a product line or major product area.
• Strong track record operating in high-velocity environments with continuous or weekly release cadences.
• Experience building and executing 6–12 month product roadmaps.
• Strong partnership experience with Engineering teams on technical SaaS products.
• Strong understanding of APIs, SDKs, integrations, distributed systems, and SaaS architecture concepts.
• Clearly demonstrate how you have questioned, learned and used AI in the last 24 months to reinvent your product craft.
• Ability to think strategically while operating hands-on within execution details.
• Demonstrated ability to forecast product risks, delivery bottlenecks, and operational challenges ahead of time.
• Experience mentoring or influencing Product peers without direct management authority.
• Confidence using AI tools and workflows to improve product execution and decision-making.

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience in privacy, security, governance, integrations, middleware, or data platform domains.
• Familiarity with event-driven systems or platform-oriented SaaS environments.
• Experience prototyping or experimenting using modern AI tooling.
• Experience scaling product practices in high-growth SaaS organizations.

Benefits

• Competitive-pay compensation and ownership interest/equity.
• Unlimited paid time off, plus a requirement to take at least two weeks off per year.
• We're a Best Place for Working Parents and offer paid parental leave for all new parents.
• Osano sponsors individual premiums on base plans at 100% and dependent premiums at 50% for Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance via Aetna.
• A fully and permanently remote company so you can work from anywhere in the U.S.
• Receive a MacBook and $600 to craft your home workspace.
• Annual company trip designed to foster connection, creativity, and fun.
• Mental health benefits with free memberships to mindfulness and talk therapy services.
