It makes a difference! About the role: We are looking for a Technical Product Manager (Data/AI) to join our Generative AI & Search team, playing a critical role at the intersection of business, data science, and software engineering. You will own the strategy, execution, and adoption of GenAI-powered experiences, intelligent agents, and semantic search products used across global markets. This role requires strong product leadership, **a solid technical background to guide and challenge the engineering and data teams**, and the ability to translate complex AI/Search architectures into tangible business value for commercial and customer stakeholders. What you'll do: Drive Strategic Alignment - Partner with global commercial and product stakeholders across LATAM, US, and global markets to enable product understanding, drive adoption, and unlock new Generative AI and Search use cases. - Act as a product evangelist—educating stakeholders on LLM/Search capabilities, trade-offs (latency, cost, accuracy/hallucinations), limitations, and product roadmap. - Provide regular updates to internal stakeholders and leadership on product adoption, search relevance, agent performance, and business impact. Plan & Prioritize - Own quarterly product planning in close collaboration with AI/ML Engineers, Data Scientists, Data Engineers, and Software Engineers. - Leverage your technical background to balance business value, model/prompt experimentation, search relevance tuning, and platform/infrastructure scalability when defining priorities. - Continuously assess team capacity, technical debt, and delivery risk to ensure plans are realistic, achievable, and aligned with broader product and business strategy. Execute & Deliver - Partner closely with technical teams to execute the quarterly backlog and deliver high-impact GenAI and Search capabilities. - Drive the end-to-end delivery of: Conversational AI & Agentic workflows, Semantic & Hybrid Search engines (RAG, vector search), Scalable and low-latency APIs, Evaluation frameworks (LLM-as-a-judge, offline/online evals), and observability dashboards. - Define Epics, High-Level Requirements (HLRs), and technical specs, leading refinement sessions with a strong focus on: System architecture, User experience (UX), Search relevance & ranking, and LLM behavior, guardrails, and performance. - Lead Agile ceremonies, including daily stand-ups, sprint planning, reviews, and retrospectives, acting as a technical sounding board for the squad. - Track delivery and performance metrics, producing sprint summary reports with emphasis on: Team productivity, Search & AI quality metrics (e.g., NDCG, MRR, faithfulness, latency, token cost), and usage/adoption trends. Engage Stakeholders - Maintain strong relationships with technical, commercial, and senior leadership stakeholders. - Present quarterly roadmaps, architectural trade-offs, and progress updates with clarity and confidence. - Proactively manage expectations by negotiating scope, timelines, and technical trade-offs across internal teams and customers. What you'll need: - Strong technical background (e.g., degree or prior hands-on experience in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, or Systems Architecture) with the ability to constructively guide technical discussions and architecture decisions with engineers and scientists. - Proven experience managing data, Search, or AI/ML-driven products, with a strong grasp of Generative AI concepts (LLMs, RAG, Prompt Engineering, Agents, Embeddings) and Information Retrieval / Search (Lexical vs. Vector/Semantic Search, ranking, indexing). - Strong understanding of the AI/ML and Search lifecycle, including data pipelines, indexing, context retrieval, evaluation frameworks, deployment, monitoring, and continuous iteration. - Ability to translate ambiguous business problems into clear technical product requirements and architectural specifications. - Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, capable of bridging business, software engineering, and data science audiences. - Fluent English (and Advanced Spanish is a plus) to collaborate effectively with global teams. - Willingness to work hybrid in São Paulo.
