About The Role
In this role, you will be joining the Product Management team reporting to a Director of Product Management in our Machine Learning & Search pillar. The Product Management function at Highspot is an integral part of the company. You will be jumping into many different projects and features, and will be very hands-on. You will be working very closely with a senior engineering team and experienced design partners.
The Principal Product Manager role has a large area of ownership within the product portfolio, for which you will define a vision and roadmap. You will work with a feature crew of dedicated engineers and designers to identify, define, validate, and ship features.
The Machine Learning & Search platform pillar is responsible for machine learning based experiences including search and recommendation engines. It also serves as the center of excellence for the development of generative AI features.
Our mission in the ML & Search pillar is to enable the product organization to efficiently ship innovative and high quality features to our customers. We accomplish this both through standalone innovation, and deep integration with the rest of the Highspot platform.
Our ideal candidate is someone with a proven track record in machine learning and/or search who enjoys collaborating with a broad range of stakeholders across the organization and is hungry to innovate. To be effective in this role, this person can partner deeply with engineering while working closely with feature PMs to make this technology tangible to deliver impactful solutions to our customers. They will become the product expert in this space, collaborating with other disciplines to build a vision, strategy and roadmap that delivers quality and innovation.

You will become an expert on our software, customer, and our market, as well as be able to identify, prioritize and execute on both tactical and strategic projects.
You work well cross-functionally with other teams such as executives, product marketing, customer success and make sure their objectives are met, opinions are considered, and plans communicated.
