WRITER is where the world's leading enterprises orchestrate AI-powered work. Our vision is to expand human capacity through superintelligence. And we're proving it's possible β through powerful, trustworthy AI that unites IT and business teams together to unlock enterprise-wide transformation. With WRITER's end-to-end platform, hundreds of companies like Mars, Marriott, Uber, and Vanguard are building and deploying AI agents that are grounded in their company's data and fueled by WRITER's enterprise-grade LLMs. Valued at $1.9B and backed by industry-leading investors including Premji Invest, Radical Ventures, and ICONIQ Growth, WRITER is rapidly cementing its position as the leader in enterprise generative AI.
Founded in 2020 with office hubs in San Francisco, New York City, Seattle, Austin, Chicago, and London, our team thinks big and moves fast, and we're looking for smart, hardworking builders and scalers to join us on our journey to create a better future of work with AI.
About the Role
~1 min readThis is a chance to help shape the next chapter of WRITER's product at a moment when generative AI is redefining how work gets done. As senior staff product manager, you'll report directly to Wil Pong, VP of Product, and operate as a force-multiplier across the product organization β setting direction where it's unclear, aligning stakeholders, and making sure our most critical initiatives ship with excellence.
You'll own ambiguous, high-impact problem spaces that span multiple product areas and teams, and you'll be equal parts strategist and operator. One moment you're shaping a multi-quarter roadmap; the next you're rolling up your sleeves to unblock execution. We're looking for someone who thrives at the intersection of customer empathy, technical depth, and business judgment β and who is energized by turning complex, evolving AI capabilities into products customers love.
We are open to hiring for this role at multiple levels, with compensation ranges scaled to match your experience, expertise, and the scope of the role.
