Applied AI Product Manager (Forward Deployed)

How do you turn a quarter-end close that still runs on spreadsheets into something an agent handles overnight? Help a contact centre answer faster and better without adding headcount? Turn a 200-page regulatory change into a plain-English checklist a compliance team can act on by Monday morning? Get an AI system to read a backlog of contracts and surface only what actually matters?

Applied AI puts frontier AI to work inside real businesses, working with clients from CTOs to operational teams to turn ambitious, often fuzzy goals into AI solutions that ship and create real value. The work ranges from helping a workforce use AI effectively, to rebuilding processes around agents, to launching new AI-native products.

We’re looking for an Applied AI Product Manager (Forward Deployed) to own that journey—from the first messy conversation to a live system that earns or saves real money. This is a hands-on, client-facing role: you are the client’s main point of contact, decide what gets built and why, run delivery through to a working system, and prototype solutions yourself. You own the why and the what, while engineering, data and architecture partners build for production scale.

Responsibilities

• Build, don’t just brief. Prototype working AI solutions and demos with modern tooling to prove ideas in pre-sales and get to value quickly.
• Own the client relationship. Act as the day-to-day partner and point of contact, build trust across the organization, and communicate trade-offs clearly.
• Shape what is built and why. Turn vague, high-stakes goals into a clear problem statement, solution and agreed definition of success.
• Carry work through from pre-sales shaping into delivery so nothing is lost in handover.
• Facilitate workshops with business and technical stakeholders, bringing clarity when the brief is fuzzy or direction changes.
• Build the business case and ROI story so clients can invest with confidence.
• Drive rollout and change to ensure solutions are adopted, then feed lessons back into ways of working.

Requirements

• Hands-on AI prototyping using current tools, including Claude and Claude Code, ChatGPT and Gemini, Cursor, v0, Lovable, Replit, and Microsoft Copilot Studio.
• Track record of delivering AI agents or AI-native features into live client use.
• Customer-facing experience leading high-stakes work with misaligned stakeholders and an unclear path; roughly 5+ years in product or consulting, with track record valued over years or titles.
• Deep domain expertise in at least one of: Financial Services, Retail Banking, Insurance, Healthcare & Life Sciences, Retail, or Travel & Hospitality.
• Product and value mindset with 0→1 innovation experience, building from a blank page under ambiguity.
• Working knowledge of LLMs, prompting, RAG, embeddings, vector databases, agents and the Model Context Protocol (MCP).
• Ability to ask sharp questions, structure chaos, and move from executive whiteboarding to a clear engineering brief.
• Bias for action, including rapid prototypes, workshops and short-notice demos.
