We’re working with well known companies like HelloFresh, Slack, LaunchDarkly, and Vanguard and more across a range of industries. This is an exciting time in our trajectory, we’ve closed Series D funding, scaled past the 200-person mark, and were named to Forbes’ America’s Best Startups of 2022 and 2023! \nIf you want to see what we’ve been up to, please check out these blog posts and Honeycomb.io press releases. \nWho We Are\nWe come for the impact, and stay for the culture! We’re a talented, opinionated, passionate, fiercely inclusive, and responsible group of bees. We have conviction and we strive to live our values every day. We want our people to do what they truly love amongst a team of highly talented (but humble) peers.\nHow We Work\nWe are a fully distributed company, which means we believe it is not where you sit, but how you deliver that matters most. We invest in our people and care about how you orient to our culture and processes. At the same time we imbue a lot of trust, autonomy, and accountability from Day 1. #LI-Remote\nLittle more about the team:\nYou'll be the product manager for our Canvas and Agentic AI teams - the teams building Honeycomb's AI-powered investigation experience. Canvas lets engineers use natural language to query, visualize, and understand their production systems. We're pushing well past chat: we're building Skills (pre-configured workflows that encode domain expertise into repeatable, executable actions), Auto-Investigations (agent-driven investigations that kick off before a human gets paged), and a rearchitected Canvas that's both interactive and collaborative.\nYou'll work in a tight triad with engineering and design leads, owning the roadmap for how AI shows up in Honeycomb, from the product UI to our MCP server. You'll partner with our Director of AI Strategy, Research & Development teams, and our customer-facing teams to stay grounded in what customers actually need while pushing toward something meaningfully different from what exists today.\nThis is a role for someone who can hold both execution and ambiguity: shipping production features while navigating a product space where the right answers are still emerging.\nWhat you’ll do in the role:\nDefine AI product strategy in service of Honeycomb's vision\nSynthesize AI trends, customer needs, and technical capabilities into clear strategic recommendations\nHelp the product organization understand where and how AI creates genuine customer value vs. where it's hype\nIdentify emerging observability challenges created by AI adoption (e.g., LLM drift, prompt regression, low-context generated code)\nMake informed bets about which AI technologies and approaches warrant investment\nConduct research that bridges technology and customer reality\nBuild deep understanding of how customers are adopting AI in their engineering workflows\nIdentify patterns across customer conversations that signal future market needs\nStay current with AI/ML developments (RAG, fine-tuning, agentic systems, etc.) and translate implications for observability\nEngage with technical communities, researchers, and early adopters to spot trends before they go mainstream\nEnable AI innovation across the product portfolio\nPartner with product teams to identify high-value opportunities to leverage AI capabilities\nProvide guidance on AI approaches, trade-offs, and best practices without centralizing all decisions\nHelp teams understand how their work fits into our broader AI strategy and how to leverage shared capabilities\nSynthesize cross-portfolio learnings and socialize what's working (and what isn't)\nEvangelize the AI-observability connection\nArticulate Honeycomb's point of view on AI observability both internally and externally\nHelp customers understand how observability needs evolve as they adopt AI\nContribute to thought leadership through writing, speaking, and community engagement\nBuild credibility with technical audiences who care deeply about how we use AI, not just that we use it\n\nWhat you’ll bring to the role:\nProven AI product experience\n5+ years in product management with at least 1+ year shipping AI/ML-powered products\nTrack record of taking AI features from concept to customer impact, including things that didn't work\nDeep understanding of how engineering teams actually build, deploy, and operate AI systems (not just theoretical knowledge)\nFamiliarity with current AI/ML techniques and the judgment to know when they're applicable vs. overhyped\nStrategic thinking with customer empathy\nAbility to synthesize disparate signals (research, customer feedback, technical trends) into coherent strategy\nComfort operating with ambiguity and making decisions without perfect information\nPattern recognition across conversations-spotting what customers aren't yet saying clearly\nStrong judgment about when to say \"no\" or \"not yet\" despite exciting technology\nTechnical credibility without needing to be the expert\nEnough technical depth to have earned respect from engineers and architects\nGenuine curiosity about how things work, paired with humility about what you don't know\nAbility to evaluate trade-offs between different AI approaches (RAG vs. fine-tuning, model selection, etc.)\nUnderstanding of observability principles and why they matter in production systems\nCommunication and collaboration skills\nExcellent written and verbal communication-can explain complex ideas clearly to varied audiences\nAbility to influence without authority across product, engineering, and go-to-market teams\nComfort presenting to customers, executives, and technical audiences\nCollaborative mindset that elevates others' work rather than centralizing control\nCuriosity and learning orientation\nDemonstrated ability to stay current in fast-moving domains (AI is evolving weekly, not yearly)\nIntellectual humility-you're more interested in learning than being right\nExcitement about the intersection of AI technology and real customer problems\nEnergized rather than exhausted by the pace of change in AI\nBase Salary based on level of experience\n$272,739—$320,829 CAD\nWhat you'll get when you join the Hive:\nA stake in our success - generous equity with employee-friendly stock program\nIt’s not about how strong of a negotiator you are - our pay is based on transparent levels relative to experience\nTime to recharge with unlimited PTO\nA distributed-first mindset and culture (really!)\nHome office, co-working, and internet stipend\nFull benefits coverage for employees, with additional coverage available for dependents\nUp to 16 weeks of paid parental leave, regardless of path to parenthood\nAnnual development allowance \nAnd much more...\nPlease note we cannot currently sponsor or support visa transfers at this time.
