About the role

• Product Manager at Rhythms collaborating with the founder on AI-native solutions and product execution. Engaging in cross-functional tasks from user research to feature rollout.

Responsibilities

• You'll be our first PM hire, working directly with the founder to help with product execution across our entire platform.
• This means you'll touch everything - from writing specs and prompts, to conducting user research, to managing customer rollouts and validation.
• This is a "roll up your sleeves and build something from scratch" role.
• Writing PRDs, specs, and AI prompts (the new PRDs) that engineering can run with
• Smaller features end-to-end: From idea → spec → build → rollout → customer validation → closure
• Obsessing over user flow details and continuously improving them
• Running user testing, usability research, and synthesizing feedback into action
• Rolling out features, communicating updates, and closing the loop with validation
• Joining sales calls, managing customer relationships, and deeply understanding their problems

Requirements

• 4-7+ years as a PM, ideally at early-stage startups or in ambiguous environments
• You've shipped products where you had to figure out what to build, not just execute a roadmap
• Comfortable working in 0→1 environments where things change weekly
• You lead with AI in how you work (using AI tools to be more productive) AND how you think about product (building AI-native features)
• You can write effective AI prompts - this is becoming core to how we spec and build
• Able to use AI assistants to prototype features
• You don't need to code, but you understand enough technology to have intelligent conversations with engineers
• Can grasp technical concepts like LLM reasoning, context window, MCP…
• Extraordinary drive to solve customer problems - you genuinely care about making their lives better
• Comfortable being customer-facing: calls, demos, relationship management
• Strong partner to sales

Benefits

• The best experience and training to do your own startup in future
• Direct partnership with founder on shaping product direction
• Opportunity to define how we do product management as we scale and turn Rhythms into a decacorn
• High ownership and autonomy - we trust people to run with things
• Distributed team (Seattle, SF, Hyderabad, Chennai) - remote-friendly
• Competitive equity and salary for early-stage startup
