Overview

About Panorama: Panorama Education is a fast-growing technology company partnering with K-12 school districts to help students succeed in the classroom and beyond. Today, 2,000 districts serving 15 million students across all 50 states rely on our secure, research-backed platform for AI, student support, and community voice and engagement. We also provide professional development and hands-on support to help schools achieve their strategic goals and improve student outcomes. When you join Panorama, you become part of a mission-driven team making a real impact for students every day.

Panoramians can work fully remote anywhere within the Continental United States.

About Solara

Educating is one of the most important and exhausting professions. Teachers, staff, and district leaders are asked to do more with less, while students face a world where AI makes it easier to outsource thinking instead of truly learning. The promise of AI in education is both exciting and daunting: done poorly, it erodes trust; done thoughtfully, it gives educators back time, strengthens instruction and learning, and improves student outcomes.

That’s why we built Solara, Panorama’s AI-powered product, purpose-built for K-12. Solara provides educators and leaders with the insights and support they need to focus on teaching and learning, while giving students personalized, high-quality feedback and practice every day, helping them grow with confidence.

Solara has seen rapid early success, and we’re expanding across large districts. To accelerate this momentum, we launched the AI Incubator, a fast-moving, autonomous team leading Panorama’s AI efforts in a competitive, high-growth space. If you want to build technology that thoughtfully empowers educators and elevates learning for millions of students, this is for you.

About The Role

As a Product Manager for Solara, you’ll own strategy and execution for a defined area of our AI-first initiatives, translating vision into actionable product plans and guiding them through development, launch, and iteration alongside engineering, design, and data science.

This role is for someone who thrives with high autonomy, can influence across teams, and balances fast-moving execution with long-term product thinking. You’ll define success metrics, make tradeoff decisions, and ship high-quality features that deliver measurable value for educators, leaders, and students, while upholding Panorama’s standards for quality, security, and ethical AI.

This is a unique opportunity to apply your skills to one of the most meaningful applications of AI today, at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and K-12 education.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with the Incubator product leader to shape the strategy and vision for Solara’s AI-first initiatives.
• Own the roadmap for a defined area of Solara, prioritizing features in alignment with overall product strategy.
• Deeply understand teachers and school and district leaders, and translate those insights into clear requirements, effective narratives, and delightful user experiences
• QA new features, partner with product operations for smooth releases, and set success criteria with measurable outcomes.
• Define and track product metrics and use data to drive prioritization, learning, and iteration, owning the business outcomes of your area.
• Equip sales and success with enablement materials, and partner with marketing to drive compelling feature positioning.
• Communicate updates, progress, and learnings with stakeholders across Panorama.
• Support prototyping, user testing, and evaluation of new AI features, including agentic workflows.
• Champion Panorama’s commitment to high-quality, secure, and ethical AI-first product development.

About You

• 3+ years of product management experience in user-facing SaaS products
• Have a bias toward action and a strong sense of ownership, with proven ability to lead small, cross-functional teams toward ambitious goals in fast-moving, ambiguous environments
• Demonstrated experience shipping products through the full lifecycle: integrating customer feedback and data, prioritization into a product roadmap with measurable results, and thoughtful pre/post-launch execution
• Strong communicator and collaborator, able to align stakeholders and evangelize product vision across teams
• Deep customer empathy, with hands-on experience in customer discovery methods
• Comfortable working through technically complex problems and partnering closely with engineers and data scientists on solutions
• Passion for AI, demonstrated through product work, prototyping, side projects, or staying current with emerging tools and research

Exceptional candidates will have:

• Hands-on experience applying AI/LLMs to production products (prompting, evaluation, agentic workflows)
• Experience with sales enablement, product positioning, and GTM execution
• Fluency with product analytics tools (e.g., Pendo, Amplitude, Mixpanel)
• Experience driving 0→1 and 1→10 products to scale in high-growth startups
• Familiarity with education technology

Base Salary: The starting base salary for this position is $171,000. Actual offers depend on experience, skill and location.

Our salary is just one component of Panorama’s competitive total rewards strategy that also includes annual bonuses or commission awards, equity awards, as well as other region-specific health and welfare benefits
