Job description

About Us

CMB is a full-service custom market research and strategy firm based in Boston, Massachusetts.As a Top 25 Insights & Analytics company, we’re known for our relentless business-decision focus and cutting-edge creativity. Our passion is helping the world’s leading brands engage, innovate, and grow.We invest in ongoing AI-driven solutions and combine this withthe best of advanced analytics, consumer psychology, and market strategyto tackle game-changing initiatives and business challenges for our clients.

About the Position

At CMB, the application of Behavioral Psychology and Advanced Analytics underpins our approach to uncovering deep consumer insights that help our clients make decisions with confidence. Intelligent Signals, CMB’s AI-powered market intelligence platform, is an important new extension of that approach, combining multi-channel signal ingestion, an AI agent layer, and insight orchestration to help clients act on market signals faster and with more confidence.
Working on the Applied Innovation team and closely with CMB’s VP of Applied Innovation, the Product Manager will help shape the product vision and strategy, and will own product requirements, the roadmap, and go-to-market execution for Intelligent Signals as it grows from its first client deployment into a scalable, sellable CMB product. This includes defining requirements and priorities, packaging the product for repeatable delivery across clients, and partnering with Sales and Client Services to bring the product to market. Technical architecture and engineering are led by PD&I and third-party development partners, with the Product Manager representing client and market needs in those decisions. The Product Manager will spend most of their time on Intelligent Signals and the remaining time supporting broader CMB product management needs for AI Solutions.
This position offers the opportunity to help lead a new growth area for CMB and shape how its AI products are built, packaged, and brought to market, working at the intersection of applied AI, market research, and client strategy with broad exposure across the CMB organization. This position reports to the VP of Applied Innovation and works collaboratively with other teams, including, but not limited to, Product Development & Innovation (PD&I), Advanced Analytics & Data Strategy, Growth Strategy, individual client-facing project teams, and third-party development partners.
This role can be hybrid in Boston, or remote in the US.

About You

You’re energized by taking something promising and bringing it to life. You naturally think in terms of roadmaps, requirements, and trade-offs, but you never lose sight of the client problem the product will solve. Whether you’re representing client needs in a conversation with engineers or working with Sales to shape how a new capability is positioned, you know how to translate between technical possibility and business value.
You’re comfortable leaning into ambiguity. Growing a product from its first client deployment into a repeatable, sellable solution can mean making decisions without a playbook, and you have a track record of approaching that responsibility with curiosity and rigor rather than hesitation. Colleagues trust your judgment because you back it with data, and clients and internal partners alike value how clearly you communicate complex ideas.

About Your Background

You’ve built your career in product management or product ownership, ideally with B2B data, analytics, or insights products, and you’ve taken products to market. You know how to define requirements, manage a backlog, and work with sales and client teams to shape a roadmap, and you’ve supported go-to-market through positioning, sales enablement, and client demos. You’re familiar with AI-powered products, such as LLM-based agents or natural language processing, and comfortable discussing capabilities and tradeoffs with technical partners. Exposure to APIs, system integrations, or data pipelines is a plus, but you don’t need to be an engineer: technical architecture is led by our PD&I team and development partners. What matters is that you understand the platform well enough to explain it credibly to clients and to weigh how technical constraints affect scope, cost, and timeline.
You thrive at the intersection of strategy and execution — equally comfortable with establishing a long-term vision as you are with rolling up your sleeves to get a release out the door. You’ve successfully worked cross-functionally with Engineering, Data Science, Sales, Marketing, and Client Services teams before, and you know how to influence outcomes without formal authority over the people involved.
