Our mission is to Underwrite superintelligence. We exist because risk, not capability, is becoming the binding constraint on AI being useful. History offers lessons for how to build confidence in new technology; electricity burned down houses until insurers funded Underwriters Laboratories (UL) to certify products against their standards. Today, the UL mark is a trustmark on every light bulb in America. We’re building that for AI.\nAIUC-1, our standard for agent security, serves frontier builders like Cursor, Lovable, ElevenLabs, and Harvey. We've raised $55m from Ribbit, First Harmonic and Nat Friedman to audit frontier AI. Our team comes from METR, Anthropic, McKinsey, and OpenAI. Come join us.\nThe role\nAIUC-1 is the standard for AI agents. Enterprises use it to decide which agents they can trust. Over the last year, we certified agents for some of the most demanding companies in AI, alongside their teams and their auditors. Now we are turning that work into a product every company building agents can use.\nAs the founding product lead, you will work directly with our cofounders to translate their strategic vision into product priorities, and close the gap between that vision and what gets shipped. You hold the product agenda, test hypotheses, surface the cruxes, and drive us to decisions and execution. This is the first product hire at AIUC and the company’s top hiring priority as we gear up for GA. As you learn how we think, you take on more of the product decisions, with room to build the product function as we scale.\nIn this role, you will:\nRun the weekly product cadence across engineering, delivery and GTM\n\nBreak the product into pieces, chunk the work, and write specs with a clear definition of done\n\nDig into product data to test hypotheses and bring the founders a clear answer.\n\nSet deadlines, unblock engineers, and make sure what we said would ship does ship.\n\nTake our certification product to general availability, then into new agent types and products.\n\nWhat we're looking for:\nYou think in systems. You can hold a complex product in your head and break it into clear, sequenced work.\n\nYou are a relentless operator. Deadlines energise you and loose ends bother you.\n\nYou ground your views in analysis, not storytelling.\n\nYou have done product management at a B2B company that scaled, ideally from the startup stage.\n\nYou are senior, but you want to learn how we think before telling us how it should work.\n\nNice to haves:\nYou started in consulting or strategy before moving into product.\n\nYou have worked on security, compliance or trust products.\n\nYou have worked on AI products or evals.\n\nOur Values\nWe are in the business of building trust. We take our values seriously and treat them as commitments to each other, held to the same bar as the ones we make to customers.\nStrong back: high standards, keep our promises, work hard.\n\nFast feet: experiment, cut scope, take delight in pace.\n\nEyes up: wrestle with the mission, and let where AI is heading shape our strategy, our teams and our day-to-day work.\n\nOpen heart: say the scary thing, create connection, make room for emotions.\n\nUnderwriting superintelligence is our life's work. If you want it to be yours, apply now.\nCompensation & Perks\nCompetitive annual salary\n\nEquity (significant part of total compensation)\n\nHealth, dental and vision insurance for you and your dependents\n\nVisa sponsorship and relocation stipend to bring you to SF, if needed\n\nDaily lunch, dinner & snacks","description_format":"text","description_chars":3546,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Equity","Vision insurance"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":true,"industries":["AI Agents","AI Governance & Compliance","InsurTech"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-23T01:00:34Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":90,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.903,"p_room":1,"age_days":13,"expected_fill_days":54,"reasons":["conf:1","velocity","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-11-05T05:54:30Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/aiuc-founding-product-lead","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/aiuc-founding-product-lead.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-06T00:29:17Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":854,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-07T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":669190},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=669190"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Faiuc-founding-product-lead"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Faiuc-founding-product-lead"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Faiuc-founding-product-lead"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/aiuc-founding-product-lead\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Faiuc-founding-product-lead"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3122028}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"aiuc.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3122028},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
