Role overview

Kantiv is building AI systems that don't just respond—they reason, plan, and act. They are looking for a hands-on Senior Product Manager to work on Agentic AI Applications, someone who can dive deep into technical detail alongside developers and data scientists while keeping sight of the big picture. This is a role for someone entrepreneurial, comfortable with ambiguity, fast cycles, and the hustle required to turn bleeding-edge AI into production systems that actually work.

Responsibilities

Translate cutting-edge AI concepts (LLMs, RAG, agentic frameworks) into production-ready workflows
Sit with engineers and data scientists during debug sessions, design reviews, and brainstorming to drive clarity and unblock progress
Sweat the details: from model evaluation metrics to API contracts, ensure product quality and performance
Prioritize ruthlessly, balancing user value, technical feasibility, and time-to-market
Define, scope, and ship features end-to-end in tight iterations
Push features across the finish line—removing blockers, making fast trade-offs, and hustling to deliver
Partner with Customer Success to understand how real users interact with the platform—and where they get stuck
Translate messy customer workflows into elegant technical solutions
Identify opportunities for Joist AI's agentic tech to transform how work actually gets done
Champion a 'get it done' culture that values speed, rigor, and accountability
Bridge technical and business teams with clear, no-nonsense communication
Help shape the DNA of the product org at a company where the AI frontier is the playground

Requirements

5+ years of product management or technical leadership in SaaS/AI/ML products
Strong technical fluency—you understand LLMs, embeddings, RAG, and can engage in technical design sessions with engineers
Demonstrated ability to debug, problem-solve, and make informed decisions in ambiguous situations
Entrepreneurial drive: comfortable with imperfect information, quick pivots, and hustling to deliver value
Relentless attention to detail and pride in shipping high-quality, production-ready systems

Nice to have

Prior experience as a software engineer, data scientist, or in a highly technical role
Exposure to agent frameworks, ML pipelines, or workflow automation
Experience working in early-stage startups where speed and ownership are everything

Benefits

Competitive salary and equity
Flexible PTO and remote work options
A seat at the table in defining how autonomous AI gets built and shipped
Access to top AI tools, research, and compute resources
The chance to help shape a company where product, engineering, and AI innovation move as one team
