You know how to take a messy problem and turn it into a crisp spec. You use AI tools daily — not as a novelty, but as a genuine part of how you research, write, and think. You're comfortable with ambiguity, good at asking the right questions, and allergic to vague requirements.</p> <p>You don't need to come from a big company. You need to show us that you can ship.</p> <p><strong>Basic requirements:</strong></p> <ul> <li>You must live and work within a few time zones of Pacific (California) time. We are on Zoom and Slack a lot.</li> <li>You must be able to write a spec that an engineer can build from without follow-up questions.</li> <li>You must be actively using AI tools in your daily workflow — research, writing, analysis, synthesis.</li> <li>You must be willing to get close to customers — calls, tickets, interviews — and turn what you learn into action.</li> </ul> <p>If you want to own real product surface area, work with a sharp team, and build tools that thousands of investors use to run their firms — you belong at Decile Group.</p> <p>And we want to work with you too.</p> <p></p>\n<p></p><p><br></p><b>What You'll Do</b><ul> <li><strong>Own a product surface from discovery to launch.</strong> Define the problem, write the spec, drive alignment, oversee delivery, and follow up after launch to make sure it worked. You're accountable for outcomes, not just outputs.</li> <li><strong>Write specs that engineers love.</strong> Functional requirements, edge cases, acceptance criteria, and open questions — all resolved before a ticket hits the sprint. You respect engineering time by doing your homework.</li> <li><strong>Stay close to Decile Group customers.</strong> Shadow calls, run user interviews, read support tickets, and synthesize what you learn into clear, actionable insights. Be the voice of the customer without losing sight of business priorities.</li> <li><strong>Use AI to be a better PM.</strong> Leverage AI for discovery synthesis, competitive research, spec drafting, user segmentation, and anywhere else it sharpens your thinking or speeds up your work.</li> <li><strong>Maintain a clear, prioritized roadmap.</strong> Work with stakeholders across Decile Group to sequence what gets built and why. Communicate timelines, risks, and tradeoffs proactively.</li> <li><strong>Partner across Decile Group teams.</strong> Work closely with engineering, ops, legal ops, and customer success. Bring clarity and structure to cross-functional workflows and keep everyone aligned.</li> </ul><p><br></p><b>What You Bring</b><ul> <li>4–7 years in SaaS product management or technical project ownership</li> <li>A track record of shipping complex features end-to-end</li> <li>Exceptional written clarity — your specs, tickets, and Slack messages are models of structured thinking</li> <li>Technical fluency — you understand how web applications are built and can have real conversations with engineers</li> <li>Active, sophisticated use of AI tools in your daily workflow</li> <li>Experience building user-centered flows for operational, financial, or work
