The position
This is an exciting time to join Remote and shape a new business as the Senior Product Manager, Remote Build.
Remote Build is Remote's move on the agentic shift: as AI agents proliferate across HR and Finance stacks, they need to route through the employment infrastructure layer — labour law across 100+ countries, payroll, entity structures, the compliance rail. Remote product teams develop the core; Remote Build delivers the rest with customers — deploying standard connectors, building bespoke ones, co-building custom apps and agents on top of Remote's APIs, MCP, and CLI, and running managed services after launch.
This is a 0→1 role. Your mission: make every Build engagement compound — deciding which stay bespoke and which evolve into capabilities Remote owns, maintains, and improves long-term. You'll report to a Senior Group Product Manager and work closely with the Remote Build Principal (business, P&L) and Technical Lead (delivery, scoping).
General requirements
- AI / agents fluency. You have shipped agent-facing or AI-native product surfaces and you have a clear point of view on what changes when agents — not humans — are the primary consumer of an API.
- Proficiency in Cursor and/or Claude Code is required. You must be able to autonomously build, debug, and ship functional code and prototypes — not just write specs.
- Senior-level experience as a Product Manager, with a track record on platform, API, or developer-facing products. You have shipped surfaces other people build on.
- 0→1 builder. You have stood up a new product line or business from nothing. You are comfortable with ambiguous scope, unset baselines, and P&L thinking.
- The "product-biz" mindset. Proven ability to think commercially. You understand how a connector, an SDK, or a managed-service line shows up in revenue, gross margin, and retention.
- Outstanding customer-facing communication and collaboration skills. Build trusted customer relationships, lead discovery and working sessions, translate needs into clear requirements, and align cross-functional stakeholders to deliver high-quality outcomes.
- Technical fluency. Familiarity with APIs, REST, Webhooks, OAuth, and the design choices that make a platform safe for external builders. You can read a partner's docs and identify the risks.
- Strong UX sensibilities. Great UX for the user, always. A connector, a custom app, or an agent should feel effortless to the person on the other side — every time.
- Great judgment-making strategic (what to prioritize) and tactical (feature scope) decisions.
- Language: Business-level proficiency writing and speaking English.
- Domain advantage (nice to have): experience with HRIS, payroll, or fintech platforms (Workday, HiBob, Personio, BambooHR, Greenhouse, Netsuite, Merge, Finch, or similar).
Key responsibilities
- Own demand signals and unit economics. Aggregate what customers are asking for across engagements, and own the packaging and pricing that make Remote Build services repeatable and profitable.
- Standard integrations — fast, fixed-fee deployments. Make deploying Remote's existing standard connectors fast, predictable, and fixed-fee.
- Custom integrations — build and productize new connectors. Remote Build builds the bespoke connectors customers ask for that don't yet exist. Decide which of those graduate from one-off into reusable connectors.
- Custom apps and agents — run the engagement model and outputs. Remote Build builds custom apps and agents with customers, on top of Remote's APIs, MCP, and CLI. Codify the patterns that repeat — reference architectures, agent templates, and starter kits.
- Managed services — productize the playbook. Turn the recurring services line into a product. Reusable processes, customer-facing surfaces, and the tooling that lets managed services scale on leverage, not headcount. Own the handoff from delivery into steady-state.
- Connect the dots across functions. Partner with the Remote Build leadership group, platform product teams, GTM, and customer success so every engagement is set up to succeed — commercially and technically.
- Give platform and feature teams insights. Turn Build engagements into clear, actionable feedback for platform and feature teams — what to add, fix, and productize across the APIs, MCP, CLI, and the product overall.
