Senior Product Manager, AI Products

Job description

Who You Are:

We are seeking to add an experienced Senior Product Manager to lead the team building the AI products that help our customers discover the right content for their project.

Conversational search gets customers to the right result when they describe a mood or an idea rather than a keyword, including the searches that used to come back empty. Our MCP connector brings the Storyblocks library into the tools they already work in, so finding the right clip doesn't mean stepping away from the project.

This role works with engineers, data scientists, designers, researchers, marketers, and analysts on a cross-functional squad. This is a high impact and high visibility role, responsible for helping to define where our AI products go and then rallying the cross-functional team to experiment and deliver business results.

Reporting to the VP of Product. This role can be based out of anywhere in the US.
