## Job description

Epoch AI is looking for a Product Manager for our website. You'll decide and manage what gets built in order to communicate our research.

## About the role

We’re looking for someone to be responsible for what we build in order to communicate our research. Most of this work goes into the website, our main product. You will own deciding what each page is for, what gets done first, and whether it's ready to go out. Much of the job is holding the context that individual researchers do not: what our publications and data products have in common, how they relate to each other, and how we want people to use the site. You will also own the parts of the site that cut across several pieces of research, such as topic pages and the navigation. You'd work closely with research, design, web development and communications. Researchers put forward ideas for products and understand the research best. The design team turn specs into designs and own the visuals. Web developers build them. The comms team owns the writing. What the result of this collaboration looks like is yours. You’ll report directly to our COO. For now, this is an individual contributor role without direct reports. This role is fully remote, and we can offer contracts in many countries, though we require at least three hours of overlap in work hours with Pacific Time. We invite anyone who is interested to apply, regardless of background, experience, or credentials. Please do not include a cover letter, photograph, or headshot of yourself, or any personal information that is not relevant to the role for which you're applying (including marital status, age, identity traits, etc.). Applications are rolling.

## Key responsibilities

- Set the goals and specs for each new page or feature of the website with the researcher and the designer: who it is for, what it should do, what goes on it and roughly in what order.
- Prioritize across the whole site and products, with the audience and usability in mind, and say no or not yet when a request does not fit.
- Set the standards every new website page follows (layout, how filters and charts work, what we call things), and decide what the shared parts of the site are for, such as who the homepage serves and what they should find there in ten seconds.
- Run projects from goal to launch: agree the goal and spec before design starts, get the people who will use the product to review it before it is built, make sure developers have what they need, and decide when it ships.
- Give feedback on designs as they come, and answer designers' and developers' questions, or find the researcher who can.
- Know the audience: use analytics, the feedback form and interviews with our user panel to decide what to build and what to cut.
- Own QA: click through every page before it goes live and catch broken tiles, mismatched titles and menu labels, and buttons that do not do what they say, before readers do.

## What we're looking for

- Strong product taste: you can tell what our audience will find clear and what they will find cluttered or confusing before the analytics tell you, you know what to leave out, and you can explain why.
- Clear writing: most of this job is one-page briefs, decision notes and Slack messages that busy researchers will read.
- Comfort with data, charts and research: you can read a scatter plot and say what the point is, notice when a number is meaningless without context, and get up to speed on a research area fast enough to ask the right questions.
- An understanding of our audience (policy people, journalists, researchers and people at AI labs) and how they differ from us.
- Experience shipping web products with designers and developers, and a sense of where projects usually go wrong.
- People skills: sometimes you'll need to tell a senior researcher or designer that their feature is not getting built this time, explain why, and keep working well with them, and to change the plan when their argument is better than yours.
- Organization: you keep track of what was decided and by whom, and you follow up.
- Ability to travel: attendance at our three annual team retreats is expected for all staff.

## Nice to have

- Familiarity with Epoch's research, or with AI more broadly.
- Prior product management experience, in tech, on a website, or at a research organization or newsroom.
- Enough front-end knowledge to have a sensible conversation with developers about what is easy and what is hard.
- Comfort with AI coding tools. Our researchers and developers use Claude to change the site directly, and part of this job is keeping that fast without the site becoming incoherent.

If you don't tick all these boxes but think you would be a great fit, please consider applying anyway!

## Compensation & Benefits

- Annual salary between $125,000 and $200,000 USD, depending on location and experience.
- Salaries are not restricted to USD, and contracts and payments are usually in local currencies. Conversions are based on one-year average exchange rates.
- In countries where employment costs are particularly high we will adjust salaries proportionally downwards.
- Fully remote environment if desired, including flexible work hours.
- Competitive global benefits program, including a comprehensive health insurance program—including supplemental benefits specific to a local country, as available and mandated by local law—and life insurance and a pension plan, if applicable in your country.
- Generous paid time off (PTO), including no specific annual limit, with 30 days PTO per year protected, unlimited personal and sick leave, and 4 months paid parental leave for permanent staff with at least 12 months of tenure (prorated parental leave if less than 12 months).
- A flexible and generous expense policy for you to spend on equipment and a large range of productivity tools or learning/development opportunities, including unlimited spending on AI tools, subject to regulations and manager approval.
- Access to our very well-equipped offices in Berkeley, California, including paid meals and a gym, or reimbursement for coworking space in your area, if desired.

## About Epoch AI

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Epoch AI is a data-first research nonprofit that investigates the trajectory, progress, and impact of artificial intelligence through empirical analysis, open databases, and independent model benchmarks.
- **Entity Type**: Private nonprofit research organization (relies on philanthropic funding and mission-aligned paid services)
- **Headquarters**: Remote-first, global team; some roles listed in the Bay Area. No single public headquarters specified.
- **Founded**: 2021 (began as a group of volunteers; formally organized as Epoch AI following the success of their 2022 training-compute paper)
- **Founders**: Not publicly available in the sources reviewed

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: AI research, data analytics, benchmarking, and policy-oriented intelligence
- **Target customers**: Policymakers, journalists, AI developers, researchers, government agencies, large AI companies, nonprofits, and organizations affected by AI (including hardware, energy, and investment firms)
- **Mission**: "To improve society's understanding of the drivers, progress, and impact of artificial intelligence" — building a shared scientific foundation for thinking about AI, neutral to any specific agenda, so decisions about the technology are informed by the best available data

## Products & Services
- **FrontierMath**: A state-of-the-art private benchmark for testing frontier mathematical capabilities of AI models, commissioned by OpenAI. Epoch AI also runs pilots for software engineering and remote-work benchmarks.
- **AI Model Evaluations**: Independent, regular evaluations of publicly available models across domains, published on a public dashboard to illustrate capability trends.
- **AI Trend Databases**: Open-source intelligence program tracking AI models, training compute estimates, ML hardware, GPU clusters, AI data centers, and investment — the foundation of their research and public explainers.
- **Commissioned Research & Consulting**: Paid, mission-aligned services for companies, nonprofits, and government bodies, including data collection, benchmark development, model evaluations, and private strategic reports (e.g., compute trend analysis for UK ARIA, biological sequence model analysis for Sentinel Bio).
- **Interactive Visualizations & Explainers**: Public tools and analyses that distill complex AI trends into accessible formats for a broad audience.

## Market Standing
