Overview

Applied AI Product Manager - New York at Automattic. This role focuses on defining and shipping AI experiences across Automattic products, collaborating with engineers, and driving scalable experimentation to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

What You’ll Do

Define and ship AI experiences across multiple Automattic products, from established platforms to emerging bets that push the boundaries of what’s possible.
Work directly with engineers to rapidly prototype and iterate, bridging user needs with technical possibilities.
Drive experimentation at scale across diverse user bases, learning faster than competitors through rapid iteration.
Move fast on breakthrough ideas; design, ship, and measure AI features that set new standards in their categories.
Scale successful innovations by integrating proven concepts into core product roadmaps.
Push the boundaries of what product management looks like when exceptional talent works together.

You’ll Excel Here If You

Have shipped AI products users love; you know the difference between demos and features that fundamentally change how millions of people interact with each other.
Are exceptionally talented; you’re the PM other great product leaders want to collaborate with.
Are deeply technical without coding; discuss model architecture and system constraints as fluently as user experience and business metrics.
Move fast and think big; prototype quickly while architecting for massive scale.
Thrive on working with other exceptional people rather than just seeking comfortable product environments.
Think like a builder; comfortable with ambiguity, turning ambitious visions into shippable realities.

Experience We’re Looking For

4-6+ years in product management with 2+ years shipping AI/ML-powered features at significant scale.
Track record of exceptional product impact; features or products shipped that meaningfully changed user behavior.
Strong technical fluency; create detailed mockups, analyze complex data, understand API constraints, and communicate sophisticated ideas clearly to engineers.
Experience working across multiple products with diverse technical architectures and user needs.
Proven ability to work with top-tier engineering talent and contribute meaningfully to technical discussions.

What You’ll Be Working On

Accelerate AI integration across our portfolio, working with engineering teams to identify and ship transformative features.
Define MVP approaches for AI in core products like WordPress.com and WooCommerce that set new industry standards.
Build experimentation frameworks for rapid testing and learning across massive user bases.
Create product intelligence systems that help our teams see around corners and move faster than competitors.

Why This Role Matters

Shape AI transformation for hundreds of millions of users across creative, commerce, and communication experiences. Work on product challenges that define entire categories: making content creation more accessible, reimagining customer support, and helping small businesses access capabilities that were previously enterprise-only.

You’ll have the resources and reach to tackle problems beyond typical product management scope, alongside a team selected for their ability to push boundaries.

Salary

Salary range: $130,000-$250,000 USD. Pay will reflect the potential contribution and impact you can bring, which may, in some cases, go beyond the range stated.
