Technical Product Manager

Are you an experienced product manager with incredible drive and talent? Do you love building products and helping some of the biggest companies in the world create their next-generation products? Keep reading; we have an extraordinary opportunity for you. 

Turing Labs is the AI-powered platform to formulate better and safer consumer product like cosmetics, shampoo, detergents, sauces, and plant-based alternatives. We are changing how some of the biggest companies in the world are developing – and we’ve recently raised a $16.5M Series A round to continue our mission of being the default platform for product development. We want you as our strategic product hires at what is already proving to be a category-defining AI company with a great customer list and backed by some of the best investors in the valley - including Insight Partners, Y Combinator, Moment Ventures, and others. 

Simply put, the product you build will be used by the world’s largest companies to develop consumer products consumed by billions of people around the world. 

If the following responsibilities sound interesting, let’s talk. 

You help us to build something our customers want 

Develop personas of customers and help us understand what they need. Then, without falling for the temptation to ‘build a faster horse,’ you will craft a product strategy and road map. You will know, and be eager to share, the ‘why’ behind every product decision and work with the executive team to map our route to success. 

You see what others don’t

You’ll be operating in an industry where, often, things are done a certain way ‘because they have always been done that way.’ You’ll be recommending that improves the productivity 20x. 

Ruthless prioritization

Customers, our team, and what’s going on in the broader market will be sources of an endless stream of ideas and ‘wouldn’t it be great if…’. It’ll be up to you to rapidly prototype and develop new ideas and features with our customers. You’ll be data-driven to ensure that product updates have the intended impact, and you’ll help us work with our AI/ML and engineering teams to define and deliver the objectives for each product sprint. You will live and breathe the interdependencies across our product, you will un-block blockers and champion opportunities across the organization. Most importantly, you will be helping drive the continuous feedback loop between the team, management, and the customers. 

Early prediction of issues

A rapidly evolving product doesn’t come without growing pains, but as the product lead, you are deeply familiar with the inner workings of the platform. You will help build tools, systems, and processes so we can catch issues before our customers do. You are also eager to develop mechanisms to respond quickly, ensuring that the train stays on the tracks. 

From strategy to execution 

From the broadest strategy to the finest detail, you are eager to create a comprehensive, up-to-date plan for where we are going – and you help steer the ship as we move in that direction. You will capture feature requirements and distill them into a product funnel that the development teams can use to deliver successful products. 

Foster a customer-obsessed culture

We are upending a market where the customer is placing trust in us to get things right. We want to build a company culture that is obsessively focused on our customers and creating products that delight them. You’ll be a key part of this culture and eager to serve as a reminder of why we do this in the first place: To help serve our customer base.
