The Role Accord is the execution layer for value-selling and this is the first PM role in Accord’s history. More of our product decisions now involve AI: when an agent should act, when a person should, and what it costs. We need a PM who makes those calls with evidence. We also need to close the loop on what happens after launch. We're looking for a Product Manager to close this gap: align priorities, keep engineering unblocked, and make sure the roadmap reflects what customers and the business actually need for our category-defining product. You'll report to Divya, VP, Product and work closely with product design, engineering, customer success, and product marketing. You'll work directly with customers to ground your decisions in what they actually need. And since this is the first PM role in Accord's history, you'll have real room to shape what it becomes. What success looks like: First 3 months: You understand the product and the personas it serves and the pain it solves for our customers. By 6 months: You own the CS–product relationship outright. You've built real relationships across engineering, you're confidently setting and driving the roadmap, pulling in stakeholders to prioritize rather than waiting to be told what's next, and you're comfortable running AI evals and data analysis, including cost models included. By 12 months: If you're excelling, there's room to grow into a more senior, strategic seat by shaping company-wide prioritization and acting as a thought partner to leadership, not just executing against a roadmap someone else set.

Contribute to user research alongside design, and talk directly to customers.

Who You Are Startup experience: You’re comfortable in high-velocity and can manage multiple competing priorities with ease. 0→1, then close the loop. You ship fast and track what happens after launch. Data fluent. You run AI evals and cost models yourself and validate your assumptions before committing.
