Job Description
• Drive discovery, experimentation, and delivery to take Syft from concept to product-market fit serving passionate users.
• Conduct user research and go-to-market experiments to uncover workflows, pain points, and incentives that guide product direction.
• Collaborate closely with engineers and researchers to define, build, and iterate on deeply technical products that unlock new ways to collaborate on private data.
• Translate complex systems - privacy-preserving computations, federated architectures, LLM connectors, and more - into intuitive user experiences.
• Immerse yourself in the evolving landscape of privacy, AI, and data collaboration to anticipate shifts in technology, incentives, and regulation.
• Roll up your sleeves when speed matters - prototype flows, fix bugs or even code alongside the team to accelerate learning.
• Identify the signals that matter - from activation to retention to mission alignment - and use them to guide iteration.
• Communicate priorities with clarity, aligning a distributed team on near-term execution and long-term mission.
• Champion the voice of our users so our most technical work stays grounded in real human problems.
• Engage with policy and standards communities to ensure privacy-preserving technologies are adopted responsibly.
• Cultivate strategic partnerships with organizations whose data, expertise, or reach can accelerate our mission.
Job Requirements
- 3+ years of product management experience - building or scaling technical products - ideally in environments without a clear playbook.
- Strong technical foundation with proven experience coding and collaborating closely with engineers to ship complex software. Able to reason about distributed systems, privacy technologies, and AI.
- Ability to bridge research and implementation - turning technical possibilities into practical product directions, with a deep curiosity about emerging technologies (i.e. secure computation, RAG, mixture of experts).
- Comfort in the unknown - thrive in ambiguity, create structure, and bring clarity where others see complexity.
- Hands-on with code and tooling - able to read PRs, debug, or prototype ideas to help the team move faster.
- Exceptional communicator - clear in writing and speech, able to align distributed teams and build trust across engineers, researchers, policymakers, and partners.
- Ability to build trusted relationships across diverse stakeholder groups, i.e. researchers, engineers, policymakers, and partners.
- Mission-driven mindset - you care deeply about how technology shapes society, and you’re excited by OpenMined’s goal of unlocking the world’s non-public information.
- Nice-to-Haves
- Prior experience in early-stage or research-to-product environments.
- Experience as a data scientist or building for data scientists (including experience using Colab and Jupyter)
- Contributions to open-source projects or standards efforts.
- Exposure/curiosity about public policy, privacy, or technology governance.
- Entrepreneurial or founder-like experience - especially where you had to build both product and ecosystem from scratch.
Benefits
- Mission-Driven Work: Be part of a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on social impact rather than profit, working toward a safer, more privacy-preserving AI ecosystem.
- Open Source Contribution: Make a real impact by contributing to tools that empower global collaboration.
- Collaborative Global Team: Join a small, ambitious, and international team that values clarity, candor, and creativity.
- Flexible Work Hours: Structure your work around what best fits your life and productivity.
- Fully Remote: Work from anywhere - no commute, no office politics.
