Job description

A founding product lead is typically expected to set product direction from scratch, turn founder strategy into a clear roadmap, and work hands on with engineers to ship. A strong candidate brings early stage product experience, sound judgment about priorities, and comfort with ambiguity. Here that means shaping products around certifying AI agents and tying audit outcomes to liability.

How it fits the AI era

AI changes the pace of product work, since prototypes and drafts come faster and more of the job is deciding what is worth building. The human parts stay central: judging risk, setting priorities, and earning trust with customers and partners. In certification and insurance, clear reasoning about evidence and liability matters more than speed.

How it builds AI experience

This role builds hands on experience with AI agent evaluation, audit evidence, and how liability gets priced against audit results. A candidate can prepare by learning how AI systems are tested and certified and by studying how insurance products handle risk. Working closely with cofounders on early products adds practical depth fast.

• Zero to one product
• Risk and audit basics
