## Job description

Location: Hybrid (Lawrence, NY) Reports to: CEO Compensation: $180,000 to $230,000, plus health coverage and PTO

## ABOUT MAIGRATE

Maigrate builds AI-powered products for mid-market companies. We build lasting software, not one-time deliverables. We're early-stage, growing fast, and assembling the team that will define what AI-native software looks like for this market. The people who join now won't just build the product, they'll help shape how we operate and what we become.

## ABOUT THE ROLE

We are hiring an AI Product Lead to own product strategy and delivery.

Every new customer and every new agent is a product launch. New workflows, new edge cases, new integration requirements, new constraints on how software must behave in a regulated environment. You will own that work from scoping through go-live and past it.

You will set the roadmap, decide what gets built and in what order, and stay accountable for whether it works in production. You sit between our customers, our operations team, and our engineers. Requirements come in from customer conversations and internal review. They leave your desk as written tickets an engineer can pick up and build.

## WHAT YOU'LL DO

## OWN THE PRODUCT

- Set and maintain the roadmap across all accounts, and defend the sequencing
- Decide what is a one-off customer request and what becomes core product
- Define success metrics before launch, including adoption, reliability, and cost, and report against them after

## OWN DELIVERY

- Run each new deployment from requirements through production go-live
- Manage scope, tradeoffs, timelines, and quality
- Make the call when scope and date conflict

## TURN CUSTOMER PROBLEMS INTO SHIPPED SOFTWARE

- Gather requirements directly from customer stakeholders and the people doing the work
- Write specs and tickets an engineer can build against without a follow-up meeting
- Run the backlog in our ticketing system: write it, prioritize it, groom it, and keep it current
- Translate technical constraints back into language a customer executive can act on
- Plan for how the system behaves when the AI is wrong, and what the fallback is

## WORK WITH NO PLAYBOOK

- Lead the first engagement in a new workflow or sub-vertical
- Find the unknowns early and remove the risk before it hits a timeline

## LEAD THE PRODUCT TEAM

- Oversee the product team, with product managers and implementation specialists reporting to you
- Mentor the team and keep it aligned on strategy

## WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

## MUST HAVE

- 5+ years in product management, or a comparable role where you owned what shipped, such as technical program management, founder, or early employee wearing the product hat
- Experience leading a team, or clear readiness to step into a team leadership role
- A track record of owning a roadmap
- Experience running work through a ticketing system such as Linear or Jira as the person writing and prioritizing the tickets
- Comfort operating across customers, internal teams, and engineers in the same day, and adjusting how you communicate for each
- AI fluency. You do not need to write code. You need to know what these systems do well, where they fail, and how to scope around that
- Ability to sit with an operations team for two hours and come out knowing where the real bottleneck is
- Experience shipping under ambiguity, with short timelines and incomplete information
- Willingness to be the person accountable when something does not work

## PREFERRED

- Healthcare domain expertise: clinical or operational workflows, EHR/EMR systems, and how healthcare organizations make decisions
- Familiarity with HIPAA, PHI, and regulatory constraints on automated decisions
- Experience with LLM-based or AI-native products
- Founder or early-startup experience

## EQUAL OPPORTUNITY

Maigrate is an equal opportunity employer. We consider qualified applicants without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law.

## About Maigrate

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Maigrate is an AI transformation partner that embeds dedicated teams inside mid-market American businesses to build and deploy tailored AI tools that drive measurable value.
- **Entity Type**: Private (early-stage startup, likely bootstrapped or seed-stage based on launch date)
- **Headquarters**: Lawrence, New York, USA (with an office also in Potsdam, NY)
- **Founded**: February 24, 2026 (public launch date)
- **Founders**: Eli Langer (CEO), Steven Mandel — the team also includes early engineer from Litify (Noah Blumenthal)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: AI Consulting & Transformation / AI Implementation Services
- **Target customers**: Established American mid-market businesses (SMB to mid-market enterprises) looking to integrate AI to improve profitability, efficiency, and growth.
- **Mission**: “Business to AI” — to make AI work inside real businesses, moving the needle on profits, efficiency, and growth by deploying AI that fits into existing workflows — not just strategy decks.

## Products & Services
- **AI Opportunity Audit**: A complimentary diagnostic service offered to prospective clients, mapping how a business operates, identifying process bottlenecks, data quality gaps, and where AI can create the most measurable value.
- **Embedded AI Transformation Teams**: The core offering — Maigrate places dedicated teams directly inside client operations to build, deploy, and iterate on AI tools tailored to that business. The firm commits to delivering at least $1 million in measurable value (revenue, cost savings, quality improvement) per engagement.
- **Proprietary Diagnostic & AI Deployment Tools**: Internal tools to map workflows, enable AI integration without disruption, and ensure business impact “compounds at unprecedented rates.”

## Market Standing
- **Valuation**: Not disclosed (private, early-stage startup)
- **Key Metric**: Just launched in February 2026
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Not publicly disclosed (no funding rounds or institutional investors visible)
- **Growth Signals**: Launched publicly in Feb 2026; already hiring for key roles (Full Stack AI Engineer, Junior AI Engineer) across two locations (Lawrence, NY and Potsdam, NY); growing team with a clear mission and a strong founding team with experience at Litify, Fortune 10 companies, and large law firms.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Embedded, outcome-driven model**: Unlike typical AI consultants who deliver strategy decks, Maigrate’s teams live inside the client’s business, own the outcome, and are tied to a guarantee of at least $1M in measurable value.
- **Strong founding team**: Combines deep engineering (ex-Litify early engineer), AI/infrastructure expertise, and enterprise transformation experience at the world’s largest law firms and Fortune 10 companies.
- **Proprietary diagnostic and deployment tools**: Builds and deploys its own tooling to map business operations and integrate AI without disruption, creating a moat in execution capability.
- **Security-first approach**: End-to-end encryption, strict access controls, and compliance-ready systems built into every deployment.

## Strategic Focus
- **Scale the team and client base**: Rapidly hiring to assemble the team that will “set the standard for how companies adopt AI.”
- **Deepen the embedded model**: Perfecting the methodology of embedding AI engineers inside mid-market businesses to achieve compounding business impact.
- **Expand geographic footprint**: Offices in Lawrence, NY and Potsdam, NY (both in New York) indicate a US-focused geographic strategy initially, with hybrid work flexibility.

## Why Work Here
- **Mission-driven culture**: The company describes itself as a “mission, not a job” and asks employees to “do the most important work of your career.” High ownership, real impact on client businesses.
- **Early-stage opportunity**: Joining as one of the first engineers means helping shape the product, culture, and operating model from the ground up.
- **Fast-paced, high-autonomy environment**: “You’ll be trusted with a meaningful mission” — engineers own features end-to-end, from design to deployment, and “live with the outcomes.”
- **Hybrid flexibility**: Roles are based in Lawrence, NY or Potsdam, NY with hybrid flexibility (in-person core but not fully remote).
- **AI-native focus**: Engineers work directly with AI solutions daily — ideal for someone who wants to build real AI systems, not just talk about them.
- **Security-focused engineering**: Emphasis on end-to-end encryption and compliance — a strong signal for engineers who care about building robust, trustworthy systems.
- **Perks**: Not explicitly listed, but typical early-stage startup environment with high impact and growth potential.
