Startup Careers


Product Manager at Element AI
Montreal, CA

As Product Manager, you are responsible for the delivery and maintenance of a best-in-class AI-powered product. You will work on a cross-functional Agile team composed of developers, applied research scientists and designers, under the management leadership of a Product Lead.

In collaboration with the Product Lead, you will make sure your team is provided with clear objectives and is fully enabled to meet these objectives. You will focus on delivering a product that brings constant value and that differentiates itself in its leverage of state-of-the-art AI solutions.

You will deploy all necessary efforts to make sure the vision for the product is understood and executable by your team. While doing so, you will provide clear visibility on your team’s progression to the different stakeholders while making sure your team has the space to innovate and experiment. To make sure this happens you will constantly connect with both your users and your team members.

What you need to be happy and successful in your job 

You value collaboration and clarity above all and you live by the adage “strong opinions loosely held”. You understand the value of context based communication and appreciate the opportunity to provide the context your team needs to move forward successfully. Writing user stories, managing a backlog and continuous planning are things that come easily to you. You are enthusiastic about providing short and long-term objectives but you understand that the inherent uncertainty in AI means the traditional methods may not always work.

We are a Modern Agile, fast moving start-up where pivots happen regularly. You are therefore well equipped to handle these changes. Communication and the translation of business needs to product features are things you excel at. You are data-driven but understand that enabling your team to be awesome goes beyond tracking team velocity. You consider yourself to be the user/customer’s representative within the team but also feel comfortable balancing the nonstop requirements from different stakeholders. In short, you will do everything in your power to help your team remain focused, happy and working on what matters most so that it can continuously deliver business value
