Building a product from scratch takes more than a roadmap. It takes someone who can define the right problem, make tough decisions, keep the team moving, and turn an idea into something people can actually use. We’re looking for a Senior Product Manager with 3+ years of experience to do exactly that. If you’re comfortable with ambiguity, technically fluent, and experienced in taking products from zero to launch, with AI as part of the product conversation, check out the details below and apply!
Responsibilities:
◾️ Run discovery with the client: define the vision, success metrics and a scope that can ship in phases, including where AI belongs in the product and where it does not
◾️ Gather requirements from the client and stakeholders, and translate them into clear, actionable user journeys, PRDs, integration specs and acceptance criteria that engineers can build from without guessing
◾️ Build and maintain the roadmap, with estimates you can defend and early warning when a date is moving
◾️ Run delivery: backlog, sprint planning and releases
◾️ Lead the team day to day, unblocking people and resolving disagreements inside the team
◾️ Work closely with account managers to keep client relationships healthy
◾️ Maintain clear project documentation, including key decisions, assumptions and scope changes, that the team and the client can rely on
Requirements:
◾️ 3+ years of experience owning products or delivery end to end, from discovery to launch, as a product manager, product owner or delivery manager
◾️ 5+ years in the tech industry. Earlier experience as a developer, QA engineer, business analyst or designer counts
◾️ Experience taking a product from zero to launch, without an existing specification or backlog
◾️ Strong technical fluency: comfortable discussing system design trade-offs, performance and security requirements, how AI features are evaluated, and third-party integrations with engineers and architects
◾️ Fluent spoken and written English: you can run a client workshop, write a proposal and hold a difficult conversation
◾️ Daily use of AI tools in your own work, with a clear view of where they help and where they add risk
◾️ Comfortable with ambiguity, and proactive about raising risks before they become delivery problems
Nice to have:
◾️ Experience scoping or shipping AI-enabled products or features
◾️ Experience in healthcare, such as clinical workflows, EMR systems or HIPAA-equivalent frameworks
◾️ Experience with payments or booking platforms, such as billing, subscriptions, reconciliation or scheduling
◾️ Experience migrating live users or data off an existing platform
What we offer:
◾️ New products built from zero, next to the people who own them
◾️ Long-term client relationships, so you see what you started get used and grow
◾️ Modern tools, with AI subscriptions paid by the company
Please note that the hiring process includes a test assignment.
Language proficiency:
◾️ English – Advanced (C1)
Cooperation terms:
◾️ B2B cooperation under a Consulting Agreement
◾️ 12 days of Paid Time Off per year
◾️ 5 days of Medical Time Off per year
◾️ 3 paid holidays per year
◾️ Online Wellness & Psychologist Consultations
◾️ Professional Development Budget — courses and conferences
◾️ English lessons

Your AI-built MVP works. But would you trust it with real users?
⠀
Lovable, v0, Cursor, and other tools can turn an idea into a polished product in a weekend. But once real users start signing up, sharing data, and making payments, “it works” is no longer enough. Can users access data they shouldn’t? Are your API keys exposed? What happens when a payment fails or your next update breaks something?
⠀
In our latest blog, we discuss what to check and what to fix so your AI-generated MVP becomes ready for production. Available at: https://www.scrumlaunch.com/blog/vibe-coded-mvp-production-ready-product .

Choosing between Firebase and Supabase in 2026?
⠀
Both promise faster development. Both help you avoid building backend infrastructure from scratch. But they have very different philosophies. So, which platform is the better foundation for your next app?

This spring, Shopify activated Agentic Storefronts by default for eligible merchants. Millions of Shopify stores became discoverable through AI shopping experiences like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and Google AI Mode.
⠀
What does it mean?
⠀
Traditional ecommerce looks like: Search → Click → Browse → Compare → Buy
⠀
Agentic commerce can look more like: Describe what you need → Get a recommendation → Buy
⠀
A customer tells ChatGPT: "Find me a waterproof backpack under $80 that ships quickly." The
AI searches product catalogs, evaluates the options, and recommends products that match the request. In some channels, the customer can even complete the purchase without leaving the AI interface.
⠀
It creates a new competition for visibility. For years, ecommerce companies optimized their websites for humans and search engines. Now they also need to optimize their catalogs for AI agents.
⠀
AI agents rely heavily on structured information. If important product details are missing or buried in marketing copy, the AI may not understand your product well enough to recommend it.
⠀
Compare:
⠀
"Ocean Breeze"
⠀
with:
⠀
"Texturizing Sea Salt Spray, 6 fl oz"
⠀
The second one gives an AI much more to work with.
⠀
So how should Shopify merchants optimize their catalogs for AI agents?
→ Make product titles descriptive, not just creative.
→ Write descriptions around concrete product attributes and customer questions.
→ Complete GTIN, brand, and other product fields.
→ Check your structured data for errors.
→ Make image alt text genuinely descriptive.
→ Make sure robots.txt isn't blocking relevant AI crawlers.
→ Keep shipping, return, and other policies accurate.
→ Use Shopify's Knowledge Base to provide verified information about your brand.
⠀
Most of this doesn't require developers. Check when you still need one in our blog post at https://www.scrumlaunch.com/blog/shopify-agentic-commerce-2026.
⠀
Have you checked whether your Shopify catalog is ready to be understood and recommended by AI?

AI projects are everywhere. But how many of them actually create business value?
⠀
Many companies are still running disconnected pilots: one team tests a chatbot, another automates a workflow, one more experiments with analytics. There’s plenty of activity, but no shared direction.
⠀
And hiring an AI developer doesn’t automatically solve the problem. Developers can build models, integrate APIs, and automate workflows. But they’re usually building solutions to defined problems. Someone still needs to decide which problems are worth solving in the first place.
⠀
That’s where an AI strategist comes in. 🧭
⠀
An AI strategist looks at AI from the business side first:
⠀
✔ Where is the company losing time or money?\
✔ Which workflows could benefit from AI?
✔ Is AI actually the right solution, or would process redesign work better?
✔ Should we build, buy, or use an existing tool?
✔ What will implementation cost, and how will we measure the return?
⠀
The technical solution is only part of the equation. An AI system can be accurate and still fail if employees don’t use it. It can work perfectly in testing and break in production because the data isn’t reliable. It can even create regulatory or security problems if those risks aren’t considered from the start.
⠀
So the strategist’s job doesn’t end with a roadmap. They work with developers, data teams, product managers, leadership, and end users to turn business goals into AI projects that can actually work in the real world. They also help with data readiness, governance, adoption, vendor decisions, and risk.
⠀
🎯 The goal isn’t to launch as many AI projects as possible. It’s to choose the right ones, and make sure they deliver real measurable value.
⠀
So before asking “Where should we implement AI?”, it may be worth asking: “What business problem are we actually trying to solve?” That’s where a useful AI strategy starts.
⠀
Does your company have an AI strategy?

Vertical AI was hype in 2024. Analysts and investors called it the next big wave. At the time, it was still mostly a bet on the future.
⠀
Two years later, it's not a bet anymore. It's where a growing share of enterprise AI spending is going. Horizontal tools still win the easy pilots. But the growing share of AI budgets are going to tools built for specific industries and workflows.
⠀

What if your company’s next data breach starts with an innocent AI prompt from your own employees trying to work faster?
⠀
Every day, teams paste contracts, customer data, financial reports, and source code into public AI tools without thinking twice. Sensitive data can leave the company without a firewall ever raising an alarm.
⠀
Shadow AI is difficult to control precisely because it doesn’t look like a traditional attack. Here’s how the leaks happen, what’s at risk, and how companies can build a safer approach: https://www.scrumlaunch.com/blog/shadow-ai-data-leakage-business-data .
