AI Product Manager; B2B​/Staffing & Recruiting

About engin™

engin™ is the AI powered marketing & automation platform for staffing and recruiting teams. We go beyond a single point solution and deliver value through intelligent job advertising, AI voice screening technology, and a fully integrated candidate engagement platform. With engin, staffing agencies will achieve 2-3x recruiter productivity, 40% improvement in recruitment marketing ROI, and 30% faster time to fill.

We're building the agentic infrastructure for the next generation of work, starting with mission-critical American industries like healthcare, skilled trades, and frontline operations.

Role Overview

engin is hiring an AI Product Manager to lead product strategy and execution across our core platform. This role owns the “why” and “what” of engin's product—working directly with the CEO and CTO to turn customer pain into fast-moving, AI-powered solutions.

This is a hands-on role for a product manager who thrives in high-velocity environments, uses AI to prototype and validate ideas quickly, and knows how to ship meaningful product increments without over-engineering. You'll work closely with engineering, design, sales, and customer success, collaborating directly with staffing agencies and enterprise recruiting teams to bring MVPs to market quickly and iterate in production.

This role is not project management — we're looking for a product owner who can independently reason about the business, the system, and the technical tradeoffs, and bring well-thought-through product bets to the table.

If you enjoy owning outcomes, making product calls, and building in close proximity to real customers, this role is built for you.

• Own engin's end-to-end product strategy across recruitment marketing, screening, and AI-driven workflows
• Partner closely with the CEO and CTO on product vision, roadmap prioritization, and tradeoffs
• Translate customer problems into clear product bets, success metrics, and execution plans
• Balance enterprise-scale needs (security, reliability, data) with rapid experimentation and iteration
• Identify opportunities where machine learning, agents, or automation could materially improve the business, and define the concrete steps to make those ideas real — from data requirements and MVP scope to iteration in production.
• Continuously refine positioning and differentiation in the staffing and recruiting technology market

> AI-Native Product Development

• Use AI tools to rapidly prototype product concepts, workflows, and MVPs
• Design and ship AI-powered features that meaningfully improve recruiter productivity and hiring outcomes

• Evaluate new models, tooling, and agentic approaches that can unlock step-function improvements
• Reason about data inputs, labeling, model behavior, and feedback loops when defining AI-powered features — including edge cases, confidence thresholds, and failure modes.
• Ensure AI capabilities are explainable, reliable, and aligned with real customer workflows

>
Customer-Driven Execution

• Work directly with staffing agencies and enterprise recruiting teams to validate problems and solutions
• Incorporate feedback from Sales and Customer Success into product decisions and prioritization
• Support early launches with hands-on enablement, iteration, and rapid feedback loops

>
Measurement & Iteration

• Define and track product success metrics tied to customer outcomes and business impact
• Use data and qualitative feedback to iterate quickly and decisively
• Continuously identify opportunities to simplify workflows, reduce friction, and increase automation

How You Will Thrive in This Role

• You're comfortable owning product decisions and standing behind them
• You move fast, learn fast, and course-correct without ego
• You enjoy close collaboration with founders and technical leadership
• You see AI as a practical tool for leverage, not a buzzword
• You naturally propose…
