Who are we looking for?

Merge is looking for a Group Product Manager to help lead product as we extend beyond synced data into agents, tools and actions for the AI era. Our products are moving fast, and this role sits at the center of it: setting direction, shipping quickly and shaping how product gets built at an AI-native company.

You’ll own product direction across one or more product lines while staying hands-on in the work itself. Depending on fit, you’ll also lead a team of product managers and a designer. We’re looking for someone who is AI-native (you build with AI tools daily, follow what’s shipping and have opinions you can defend), technical enough to go deep with engineers and customers, and energized by ambiguity. You have a bias for action: you’d rather ship, learn and adjust than wait for perfect information. You know how the product role is changing, and you’ve already changed how you work because of it.

What will you be doing?

  • Own product direction for one or more product lines, and help set strategy across the portfolio
  • Lead and develop a team of product managers and designers
  • Prototype and test ideas with AI before they become specs
  • Partner directly with engineering, design and GTM to turn customer signal into shipped product
  • Join sales and customer calls to understand what enterprise buyers need and what blocks a purchase
  • Run fast experiments, measure what works and cut what doesn’t

What experience is required?

  • 6+ years of product management experience in B2B or technical products, including ownership of a full product area
  • Hands-on AI fluency: you use AI agents and coding tools in your daily work, not just chat assistants
  • Experience managing or mentoring product managers, or a clear readiness to
  • Strong technical understanding of APIs, data models and system tradeoffs
  • Track record of operating with autonomy and shipping quickly in fast-paced environments
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills
  • Bonus: a design background or strong design sense

Compensation

  • The salary compensation range for this role is $220,000 to $260,000
  • Actual compensation packages are based on a wide array of factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skill set, years & depth of experience, certifications. In addition to cash compensation, all employees receive an equity compensation package.
