About the Role
We’re looking for a Forward-Deployed Product Manager to serve as the key bridge between our clients and internal product and engineering teams.

Proactively manage expectations, timelines, and feedback loops.
Support Internal Teams
Provide context and clarity to engineers to help ensure smooth delivery. Ensure alignment between what was requested, what’s being built, and what’s being shipped.
Build Repeatable Patterns
Identify recurring client needs and help formalize templates, docs, or processes to streamline future deployments.
