Company DescriptionNIQ is standing up a new PM Operations & AI Enablement group: a small, build-weighted internal product team that creates AI-powered tools for our product organization and drives the adoption that makes them land.This is a product management role, not a coordination role. You will carry a portfolio of internal products with real users, a measured quality bar, adoption targets and sunset decisions — and you will own the operating practices that make our product teams faster and better evidenced. Think of it as being the product manager for the product managers.You will lead a cross-functional group of engineers without direct reporting lines, which means you will deliver through shared goals, written agreements and visible artifacts rather than instruction. We are explicit about this because it shapes who succeeds here.The two pilots are an AI toolchain for the software development lifecycle, and our design system.Job DescriptionStrategy and portfolioThe group’s product vision, direction and strategy for a 12–18 month roadmap: what gets built, in what order, and why.Portfolio prioritization and capacity allocation, including how many tools the group can responsibly carry at once.The build-versus-buy recommendation for every initiative, against a buy-or-configure-first default, and the business case behind it.The sunset decision for tools that do not earn their adoption.A two-to-three year view of how AI changes product and engineering work, and a roadmap that stays consistent with it.Building AI productsEnd-to-end product definition for the group’s AI tooling: problem, users, the workflow it replaces, the adoption path, the measurement plan, the maintenance owner.AI-native specifications a strong engineer can build from — task boundaries, context sources, failure modes, guardrails, human-in-the-loop points, and the quality bar in numbers.The product calls that shape the architecture: workflow versus agent, retrieval versus fine-tuning, model selection per use case, and the cost and latency budget.The quality bar and evaluation strategy: what \"good enough\" means before the build starts, a failure taxonomy built from real usage, and the regression discipline when prompts or models change.How the human enters the loop, how uncertainty is shown, and what happens when the system does not know — the decisions that determine whether people trust the tool.The incident and rollback plan for non-deterministic failure, written before launch.AdoptionThe adoption outcome, measured as instrumented depth of use — not seats provisioned or enthusiasm in a demo.The adoption path for each tool: pilot teams, a champion in each team, onboarding, office hours, handover to support.Evangelizing the work across product and engineering: the demo, the prototype, the case made repeatedly and well.Facilitating the sessions where practice actually changes and leaving them with commitments rather than sentiment.Change management, rollout, training and enablement content.Honest reconciliation of instrumented usage against self-reported benefit, and ownership of the gap.Practice and craftThe product operating standards for the organization — intake, prioritization inputs, PRD conventions, definition of done, documentation, decision log — kept deliberately light.Coaching and mentoring product managers, particularly those earlier in their careers, in continuous discovery, outcome framing, evidence-based decision-making and AI-native practice.The AI literacy curriculum for the product organization — designed and taught or outsourced.Recurring forums where teams share what they discovered and what they decided.Measurement and reportingThe definition, baseline and instrumentation for the programme’s success metrics, quantitative and qualitative.A metric-led reporting cadence to senior leadership, including the results that did not work.The trade‑off framework — speed, reliability, cost, data risk — communicated in writing.Governance partnershipThe product-side data decisions: what data each surface accepts, which model serves which use case, and the guardrails that go with it.Partnership with Legal, Privacy, Security and IT on data classification, model approval, access and responsible‑AI standards.QualificationsRequiredSenior product leadership experience in enterprise B2B SaaS, with end-to-end ownership from discovery through delivery, and the ability to show what changed as a result.Experience leading and growing cross-functional teams, and mentoring product and design practitioners.Demonstrated ability to deliver through people who do not report to you — with concrete examples of aligning stakeholders who had different priorities, and of moving an organization to a new way of working that stuck.Hands‑on experience designing and shipping generative or agentic AI capabilities in a live product — not only using AI tools to accelerate your own work.Working fluency in AI product practice: prompt and context design, retrieval, agentic workflow patterns, guardrails, human-in-the-loop design, and model evaluation. You can discuss model trade‑offs, data requirements, cost and latency with engineers without needing first‑principles explanations.Experience defining what \"good enough\" means for an AI feature in measurable terms, and holding a product to it. – Experience creating or scaling a design system and driving its adoption across teams.Strong research and evidence practice: usability testing, interviews, journey mapping, surveys, A/B testing — run to a professional standard and taught to others.Strong customer research and evidence practice: conducting interviews and gathering insights for creating informed decisions.Product analytics fluency (for example Amplitude, Pendo, Tableau) and the quantitative literacy to define a metric that survives scrutiny.Experience defining and embedding operating practice — design ops, product ops, intake, process and documentation standards — that teams adopted willingly.Facilitation skills with senior and skeptical audiences, and experience designing and delivering enablement or training programmes.Commercial judgement: business‑case creation, budget ownership, and vendor or partner evaluation.Excellent written communication: you make your case in a document that survives the meeting you were not in.Fluent EnglishPreferredFormal grounding in AI product development.Experience with agentic development tooling in your own workflow, and a view on what it changes about how teams work.Familiarity with engineering productivity measurement (DORA, SPACE, DX Core 4) and clear views on what each does and does not measure.Experience with eval and observability tooling for LLM applications.Working knowledge of AI governance obligations in the EU and beyond, including AI literacy requirements for internal AI use.Experience of release and platform operations, CI/CD or environment management.Prior experience standing up a new function, or a founder background.Additional InformationOur BenefitsFlexible working environmentVolunteer time offLinkedIn LearningEmployee-Assistance-Program (EAP)NIQ may utilize artificial intelligence (AI) tools at various stages of the recruitment process, including résumé screening, candidate assessments, interview scheduling, job matching, communication support, and certain administrative tasks that help streamline workflows.
