Description du poste

• We are looking for an exceptional Head of Product to lead BrightHire’s next chapter
• You will be our senior-most product leader, responsible for helping determine where we play, how we win, and how we translate our ambition into products that create meaningful customer and business impact
• You will rapidly build context across our customers, products, technology, market, competitive landscape, and commercial model
• From that context, you will develop a clear point of view about the opportunities that matter most and translate it into a focused set of high-conviction product investments
• You will lead product across BrightHire Interview, BrightHire Screen, and future products. This will require difficult decisions about how to balance products with strong existing momentum, platform investments, and entirely new opportunities created by advances in AI
• A critical part of the role is bringing leverage to the CEO, Head of Engineering, and broader leadership team. You will bring clear recommendations, articulate the underlying reasoning and trade-offs, and help the organization make better and faster decisions about where to focus its resources
• You will also ensure that strategy translates into excellent execution. You will stay close to customers, active product work, roadmap decisions, product reviews, launches, and adoption—helping teams resolve ambiguity, raise product quality, and deliver meaningful outcomes
• You will work across Zoom to identify R&D, platform, go-to-market, and distribution synergies that can create differentiation and growth at a scale BrightHire could not achieve independently
• The goal is not to build a large product organization for its own sake. It is to build an exceptional product and business. The right candidate is motivated by customer impact, product quality, strategic advantage, and growth—not team size or span of control
• Rapidly develop a deep understanding of our customers, products, market, technology, economics, and competitive position
• Develop a clear perspective on strategy – where BrightHire should play and how we can win
• Translate our strategy into a focused sequence of product investments
• Bring the CEO and leadership team clear points of view, recommendations, and trade-offs
• Continually reassess our assumptions and priorities as the market and technology evolves
• Partner with the CEO and Head of Engineering on strategy, roadmap, resourcing, execution, launches, adoption, and business impact
• Allocate resources across BrightHire’s current products, platform capabilities, and new bets
• Ensure our largest initiatives have a clear customer, value proposition, competitive position, success measures, and path to meaningful impact
• Create the product and platform foundations required to expand BrightHire into a broader AI-native hiring platform
• Translate strategic priorities into clear roadmaps, ownership, resource allocation, and execution
• Create a lightweight operating model that drives speed and quality
• Hold a high bar for product value, usability, reliability, and trust
• Stay close to workstreams to identify risks, resolve ambiguity, and maintain momentum
• Ensure products move successfully from insight and concept through launch, adoption, measurement, and iteration
• Identify opportunities that become possible as model capabilities improve
• Apply your experience building great AI products – prototyping, evaluations, reliability, trust, product economics, and continuous improvement
• Balance rapid innovation with the transparency, quality, and trust required for enterprise adoption
• Personally use and experiment with modern AI tools and workflows
• Connect roadmap decisions to adoption, retention, and revenue
• Partner with sales, marketing, and CS to translate product investments into revenue
• Participate in customer and prospect conversations and use them to sharpen product strategy
• Shape positioning, launches, enablement, adoption, and competitive narratives
• Identify opportunities to use Zoom’s tech, relationships, and distribution to accelerate growth
• Be an insightful, high-leverage resource to product managers and designers, helping them sharpen their thinking, make better decisions, and produce stronger work
• Raise the quality of product strategy, judgment, craft, and execution across the team
• Build a culture of intellectual honesty, customer obsession, speed, and accountability
