Job description

PRODUCT MANAGER, RAPID EXPERIMENTATION (AI)

Thresh Consulting — Strategy in Action for the AI Era

Salary: $125,000 - $155,000 + up to 20% annual bonus (full-time) | Competitive rate (contract)

Location: Hybrid (Denver, Chicago, or NYC preferred)

ABOUT THRESH

Thresh Consulting is a modern digital consulting firm built for the AI era-where strategy, execution, and craft come together to deliver real outcomes with speed. Our specialty is helping organizations design, build, and scale digital products that create exceptional customer experiences and drive value.

At Thresh, our Product Managers operate at the intersection of business, design, and technology-turning strategy into shipped products with measurable outcomes. We value clarity over complexity, quality over shortcuts, and learning as a core part of growth.

ROLE OVERVIEW

This Product Manager is embedded with a single client team and owns a pipeline of product experiments from idea to result on a large inbound commerce platform. Reporting to Senior Product Leaders, you generate testable ideas, design lean experiments, and work with design and engineering to ship them quickly, often in weeks rather than months. You use AI tools to prototype and test faster, and you understand how AI-powered products are built well enough to propose, test, and improve them.

You think like an AI product builder. You turn a client goal or a customer problem into a clear bet, decide the smallest test that will prove or disprove it, and agree in advance on what result would change the plan. You measure progress by how quickly the team learns, not only by how many features ship.

You are accountable for delivery, quality, and outcomes within your area, and you are excited to grow toward broader product ownership as Thresh's Product Management practice scales. You decide what to test, how to test it, and when to stop a test within your area; and you will work with a team on the overall roadmap and client-level strategy.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

PRODUCT OWNERSHIP & EXECUTION

• Own the roadmap, backlog, and delivery for a defined product area or workstream, from requirements through launch
• Write clear requirements, user stories, and acceptance criteria, and manage prioritization and refinement independently
• Turn client goals and product strategy into a prioritized backlog of experiments and small, shippable increments
• Surface tradeoffs, risks, and recommendations for your area to your Senior Product Manager

EXPERIMENTATION & TESTING

• Generate a steady pipeline of testable ideas from customer data, user research, client goals, and competitive signals
• Write a clear hypothesis for each test, with the success metric and decision criteria agreed before it starts
• Design and run A/B tests, fake-door tests, prototype tests, and other lean experiments sized to the question
• Ship tests quickly with design and engineering, cutting scope to what a valid result requires
• Analyze results rigorously, share what the team learned, and recommend whether to scale, iterate, or stop

AI PRODUCT BUILDING

• Use AI tools to prototype ideas, generate test variants, and speed up analysis
• Propose and test AI-powered features, with a practical sense of what current models can and cannot do
• Define how AI features are evaluated for quality, reliability, and user trust before and after launch

CLIENT & STAKEHOLDER COLLABORATION

• Serve as a day-to-day product point of contact for client counterparts at the team and manager level
• Communicate progress, risks, and decisions clearly to Thresh and client stakeholders
• Support strategic product reviews and roadmap presentations led by senior product leadership
• Present experiment results and recommendations to client counterparts in clear, decision-ready terms

CROSS-FUNCTIONAL DELIVERY

• Partner closely with design and engineering on flows, feasibility, technical tradeoffs, and sequencing
• Manage dependencies within your workstream and coordinate with adjacent teams
• Serve as the point of accountability for delivery and outcomes in your area

MEASUREMENT & IMPACT

• Help define and track KPIs for your area: conversion, retention, and engagement
• Own post-launch analysis and continuous improvement for your area

AI FLUENCY & GROWTH

• Drive AI adoption and automation within your own workflow and delivery practice
• Grow toward senior product ownership with structured coaching from your Senior Product Manager

WHAT YOU BRING

• 2-4 years of product management experience, or product-adjacent experience (growth, analytics, engineering, or design) with clear ownership of product outcomes
• Experience owning a feature set, product area, or workstream end-to-end
• Strong requirements, backlog, and delivery discipline (Jira or equivalent)
• Technical fluency and design literacy
• Excellent communication with delivery teams and client stakeholders
• Experience assisting the development of product roadmaps and leadership updates
• A track record of designing and running experiments (A/B tests, prototype tests, or similar) and making product decisions from the results
• Hands-on use of AI tools to build, prototype, or analyze, with work you can show us
• Working knowledge of experiment design and analytics: success metrics, sample size, and statistical significance
• Experience working directly with clients or senior stakeholders

WHY THRESH

• Competitive compensation with performance bonus
• 401(k) with company matching
• Meaningful ownership of real product work
• Direct mentorship from senior product leadership and a clear path toward senior roles
• A culture built on clarity, craft, and outcomes
