Descripción de la vacante

Spendesk is seeking a Principal Product Manager to shape how AI creates real value for customers and for Spendesk, across squads rather than inside a single one.

You’ll join the AI & Data Products squad to build AI features and agents that make Spendesk smarter, faster, and more reliable, with end-to-end ownership of outcomes and a portfolio approach that drives adoption and measurable impact.

Formación

• Extensive product management experience, including complex products or cross-functional product systems, ideally in B2B SaaS or fintech.
• Track record of shaping strategy beyond a single squad and turning it into sustained customer and business outcomes.
• Experience with AI, ML, automation, or data products; understanding model capabilities, data dependencies, and operational risk.
• Strong judgement in ambiguity and ability to structure complex systems and stakeholder landscapes.

Responsabilidades

• Define durable AI product direction across several product areas, connecting customer problems, company priorities, technical reality, and commercial opportunity.
• Identify consequential problems that aren’t visible from a single squad, and frame them into focused, evidence-backed bets.
• Qualify where AI genuinely wins: accelerating work, improving reliability, or creating new intelligence, and be explicit about why AI rather than deterministic automation.
• Make trade-offs visible across value, adoption, quality, risk, data readiness, capacity, and opportunity cost.
• Own outcomes end to end: baselines, targets, quality guardrails, launch, adoption, and post-release learning.
• Bring coherence to a portfolio of agents, AI features, and the shared data foundations behind them.
• Partner with Engineering, Design, Data, Security, Finance, and go-to-market teams to clarify ownership, decision rights, and dependencies.
• Multiply other PMs and squads through thought partnership, reusable principles, and clear product narratives that reduce dependency on the AI squad.

Descripción del empleo

We’re looking for a Principal Product Manager to shape how AI creates real value for our customers and for Spendesk, working across squads rather than inside a single one.

You’ll join the AI & Data Products squad, which builds AI features and agents that make Spendesk smarter, faster, and more reliable. Its ambition is a step-change in leverage for our customers and teams, shipped pragmatically and judged on adoption and outcomes.

This is a senior individual contributor role. You won’t rely on formal authority or direct reports. Instead, you’ll raise the quality of product decisions across multiple areas through strategy, systems thinking, evidence, and influence.

What You'll Do

• Define durable AI product direction across several product areas, connecting customer problems, company priorities, technical reality, and commercial opportunity.
• Identify consequential problems that aren’t visible from a single squad, and frame them into focused, evidence-backed bets.
• Qualify where AI genuinely wins: accelerating work, improving reliability, or creating new intelligence, and be explicit about why AI rather than deterministic automation.
• Make trade-offs visible across value, adoption, quality, risk, data readiness, capacity, and opportunity cost.
• Own outcomes end to end: baselines, targets, quality guardrails, launch, adoption, and post-release learning.
• Bring coherence to a portfolio of agents, AI features, and the shared data foundations behind them.
• Partner with Engineering, Design, Data, Security, Finance, and go-to-market teams to clarify ownership, decision rights, and dependencies.
• Multiply other PMs and squads through thought partnership, reusable principles, and clear product narratives that reduce dependency on the AI squad.

What We're Looking For

• Extensive product management experience, including complex products, platforms, or cross-functional product systems, ideally in B2B SaaS or fintech.
• A track record of shaping strategy beyond a single squad and turning it into sustained customer and business outcomes.
• Experience with AI, ML, automation, or data products. You don’t need to be an ML engineer, but you should understand model capabilities, limits, evaluation, data dependencies, and operational risk.
• Strong judgement in ambiguity, with the instinct to separate important problems from attractive distractions.
• Ability to structure complex systems, workflows, and stakeholder landscapes, then make the key trade-offs simple.
• Excellent communication and storytelling: you align senior leaders and make complex strategy actionable.
• Proven influence without authority, and a habit of improving the judgement of people around you.
• Strong ownership of quality, trust, security, and the consequences of product decisions.
• Entrepreneurs. We rely on entrepreneurial spirit always as we are still on chapter 1 of our story.

Why Join Us

• Shape how AI transforms spend management and procurement for thousands of businesses across Europe.
• Work on high-impact problems where intelligent automation removes real operational effort.
• Influence direction across squads while staying close to customers and to delivery reality.
• Join a culture that values autonomy, trust, and shipping fast, without losing sight of quality.
