The Role

This is a unique opportunity to join Forgent AI on the ground floor as our first Product Manager. You will be a core member of our founding team and own complex product and commercial problems end-to-end. You'll operate at the intersection of our customers, technology, and business, partnering directly with the founders and our engineering team. As an early member of the product team, you’ll help make key decisions on the direction we go from here and have the opportunity to shape both your role and the company's product culture as we scale.

What You’ll Do

• Own the lifecycle of core product initiatives from inception and discovery through to launch and iteration, partnering directly with engineering to ship world-class AI products.
• Tackle unsolved AI problems by diving deep into complex challenges- figuring out how to build and scale agents for high-stakes enterprise workflows.
• Get hands-on with AI. You won't just write tickets; you will actively test and refine our product, applying know-how in prompt engineering, context management, and AI evaluations to make the technology useful.
• Engage with customers directly to discover requirements, gather feedback, and become a trusted partner to their business.
• Shape the product roadmap side-by-side with customers, founders, and the engineering team to scope new features and define our direction.

Who You Are

• 3+ years of experience in product management, software engineering, consulting or a related role.
• You have exceptional product sense and user empathy. You can look past the surface of a feature request to uncover the root problem, distilling noisy feedback into high-impact product insights.
• You have exceptional product sense and user empathy. You can look past the surface of a feature request to uncover the root problem, distilling noisy feedback into high-impact product insights.
• You are technically savvy. You don't need a CS degree or coding skills, but you have a strong technical curiosity. You are comfortable communicating with engineers, testing out prompts and exploring the product's capabilities.
• You are customer-obsessed, with an ability to anticipate user motivations, pain points, and the specific value AI can deliver to their workflow.
• You are a strong communicator who can use both qualitative and quantitative reasoning to explain your ideas and decisions.
• You are based in Berlin (or are eager to relocate).
• You speak fluent English and German (required for our customer base).
• Bonus: Previous experience with AI/LLMs or B2B enterprise software. Technical degree (CS, engineering, etc.).

You’ll Thrive If

• You love building fast and overcoming new challenges. You are energised by an ambitious environment where the work is intense, fast-paced, and deeply rewarding.
• You love working on 0-to-1 products. You don't need a roadmap handed to you; you enjoy the freedom of creating structure where there is none and defining the path forward.
• You embody a "no task is too small" mindset. You are an owner who is just as happy defining high-level product strategy as you are writing detailed tickets, debugging an edge case, or jumping on a sales call.
• You love being in the office, working closely together as a team. You believe that real-time collaboration drives speed.

What’s In It For You

• Ownership from day 1. You aren't just executing tickets; you are defining the product. You will work side-by-side with founders with zero red tape.
• Grow with the company. If you succeed and the company wins, your scope expands. As we grow, you will see a bigger role and deeper impact.
• Shared upside. We offer top-of-market compensation and generous equity. We want you to think like an owner because you are one.
• Work on a mission that matters. You aren't optimising ad clicks. You are helping save businesses and the public billions in waste.

Our Process

• Review: We review all applications within 5 days.
• Intro Call: 30-minute video call to understand your background and motivations.
• Product Sense Interview (Remote): A 1-hour deep dive into your product thinking and problem-solving.
• On-Site (Half-Day): A 4-hour session working on a real product use case with the team, followed by 1:1 interviews with Engineering and GTM.
• Offer: We move fast. Expect a quick final decision and transparent feedback immediately following the on-site.
