Workplace Type: Remote

Job Summary

The future is bright for the Porch Group, and we’d love for you to be a part of it as our Product Manager, AI-Native Prototyping. As a Product Manager, AI-Native Prototyping, you will own strategy, discovery, and user experience for your assigned product areas. This is a hands‑on role focused on identifying customer problems, setting priorities, designing solutions, and partnering with engineering to deliver measurable results. You will independently create initial workflows and functional prototypes using AI tools such as Claude Design and Claude Code, then validate them directly with customers before engineering builds the production version. Design and prototyping ownership are core expectations of the role, with specialist support when available. Working within the vision set by the Head of Product and alongside an Associate Product Manager and delivery team, you will help ensure Porch builds the right things for the customers we serve.

What You Will Do

• Own product strategy and the roadmap for your assigned product areas, within the vision and priorities set by the Head of Product.
• Prioritize opportunities using customer evidence, business impact, effort, and strategic alignment, and clearly explain your decisions and trade‑offs.
• Lead customer discovery through interviews, feedback channels (Intercom, Canny, NPS), Sales and Customer Success input, product data, and competitive research, validating problems and assumptions before committing engineering resources.
• Independently design user flows and build interactive, functional prototypes with AI tools such as Claude Design and Claude Code, then test complete workflows with customers and iterate based on their feedback.
• Define feature requirements, expected behaviors, scope, and success metrics, make product decisions during development, and review delivered features against the intended customer problem.
• Apply established design patterns, accessibility considerations, and consistent product experiences.
• Partner with the Associate Product Manager (APM) and delivery team to turn validated solutions into development‑ready work.
• You own priorities, scope, and product acceptance, while the APM coordinates Jira, sprints, and releases.
• Measure adoption, engagement, and customer outcomes after launch, and use the results to improve the product and adjust priorities.
• Use AI to accelerate research, design, and prototyping, and identify customer‑facing AI opportunities that solve meaningful problems.

What You Will Bring

• Product Ownership: 3 or more years of product management experience, preferably in B2B SaaS. Demonstrated ownership, judgment, and results matter more than tenure alone.
• Builder Mentality: Proven ability to independently build and validate functional prototypes using Claude Design and Claude Code, or comparable tools with the ability to adopt our workflow. Be prepared to show work you personally created and explain your decisions and validation.
• Inventor Mindset: Naturally curious and resourceful, with a habit of questioning assumptions, exploring solutions, and turning customer problems into practical ideas through experimentation and feedback.
• Customer Obsession: You want to be in the room with customers, learn their business in depth, and let that understanding shape product decisions.
• Evidence-Based Judgment: Use customer insights and product data to set priorities, evaluate outcomes, and adjust direction as you learn.
• Clarity and Collaboration: Strong communication, prioritization, and problem‑solving skills.
• Work independently and collaborate effectively with engineering, writing clear, detailed, actionable specifications and feedback so engineers and the APM can move forward with minimal clarification.
