Job Description
Brief is the context navigator for product teams. We aggregate business context (decisions, customer research, work pipeline, team knowledge) and make it legible to both people and AI agents through chat, Slack, CLI, and voice.
We believe the boundaries between product, design, and engineering are dissolving. The scarce resource is no longer engineering hours; it's taste, judgment, and the conviction to ship. So we hire Product Builders who wear all three hats and own whole things.
This is the forward-deployed shape of that role. We have several massive enterprise opportunities in front of us (teams up to the Fortune 500) and each one is as much about people and change management as it is about technology. Your job is to deploy Brief and a new way of building into those companies: wire it into their context, win the skeptics, and drive a measurable step-change in product velocity.
About The Role
Embed with enterprise customers. Sit with their technical founders, PMs, and engineering leaders.
- Deploy Brief into messy reality. Wire it into each customer's decisions, research, and work pipeline.
- Lead change management. Move organizations off habits they've had for years, patiently, without breaking trust.
- Evangelize the methodology. Facilitate workshops, win over skeptics, build internal champions.
- Close the loop to product. Turn what you learn in the field into the sharpest product feedback we get.
- Build, hands-on. Prototype, configure, and demonstrate.
About You
Product management fluency.
- Consulting-grade people skills.
- Change management is your edge.
- Technical credibility.
- Up-to-date and hands-on with AI development.
- Enterprise comfort.
- High ownership.
