[Hiring] Senior Product Manager @Spotted Zebra

Role Description

A glimpse into the role: Senior PM role in an evolving AI product environment, with around 40% of the role focused on delivery, execution and operational coordination today. You’ll work side-by-side with engineers, navigate ambiguity, and drive delivery as much as direction - turning ideas into shipped products in a fast-moving, build-first environment.

What you'll be doing

• Own a key product area, working closely with the Head of Product to balance strategic direction with effective day-to-day execution.
• Develop a strong understanding of user needs through a combination of qualitative research, stakeholder collaboration, and data analysis.
• Drive product delivery from discovery through to launch, ensuring initiatives move forward efficiently and blockers are proactively resolved.
• Work closely with Engineering and Commercial to translate user, business, and operational needs into clear, deliverable requirements.
• Own and prioritise the product backlog, balancing new functionality, experience improvements, technical constraints, and platform enhancements.
• Collaborate proactively across Product, Engineering, Design, Data Science, Operations, and commercial teams to align priorities and drive delivery.
• Make pragmatic product decisions quickly, balancing user value, technical feasibility, business priorities, and delivery pace.
• Stay close to implementation details and support teams throughout the delivery lifecycle, not just at the planning stage.
• Identify clear success metrics and use data to evaluate product performance and inform prioritisation.
• Contribute to product direction and continuous improvement within a complex and evolving SaaS environment.
• Leverage AI to accelerate discovery and delivery, enabling your team to work efficiently and deliver impact quickly.
• Ensure teams have clear objectives, visibility of priorities, and alignment on how work contributes to broader company goals.

Qualifications

• Proven experience managing complex web-based SaaS products in fast-paced startup or scale-up environments.
• Excellent prioritisation skills, balancing user needs, commercial priorities, technical feasibility, and delivery constraints.
• Strong execution and delivery skills, with experience shipping impactful products at pace.
• Comfortable operating hands-on within delivery-focused product roles, not solely strategic product leadership positions.
• Strong technical fluency and confidence working closely with engineering teams; an engineering background or product-engineering mindset is highly valued.
• Ability to gather, refine, and communicate clear product requirements across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Comfortable working within ambiguity, evolving priorities, and complex or legacy product environments.
• Strong product judgement and critical thinking skills, with confidence to challenge assumptions and make pragmatic decisions.
• Experience collaborating closely with engineers and designers in lean, cross-functional teams.
• Proactive and highly collaborative, with strong stakeholder management and communication skills.
• Strong analytical skills, using quantitative and qualitative insights to inform decisions and prioritisation.
• Comfortable creating wireframes, user flows, and lightweight UX concepts where needed.
• Experience leveraging AI tools and workflows to improve product discovery, delivery, or team efficiency.
• Understanding of AI fundamentals and responsible AI product development principles.
• Adaptable, curious, and comfortable moving between strategic thinking and detailed execution work.
• Experience working with agile product development methodologies in remote or distributed teams.

Requirements

• Experience working within HR Tech or adjacent SaaS domains.
• Familiarity with ATS platforms, recruitment technology, or people operations tooling.
• Experience using AI-assisted product development or prototyping tools such as Claude, Lovable, Cursor, or similar.
• Previous experience working within complex or legacy product ecosystems.
