Company DescriptionNIQ is standing up a new PM Operations & AI Enablement group: a small, build-weighted internal product team that creates AI-powered tools for our product organization and drives the adoption that makes them land. You will carry a portfolio of internal products with real users, a measured quality bar, adoption targets and sunset decisions — and you will own the operating practices that make our product teams faster and better evidenced. The two pilots are an AI toolchain for the software development lifecycle, and our design system.AI-native specifications a strong engineer can build from — task boundaries, context sources, failure modes, guardrails, human-in-the-loop points, and the quality bar in numbers.

- The product calls that shape the architecture: workflow versus agent, retrieval versus fine-tuning, model selection per use case, and the cost and latency budget.
- The quality bar and evaluation strategy: what "good enough" means before the build starts, a failure taxonomy built from real usage, and the regression discipline when prompts or models change.
- The adoption path for each tool: pilot teams, a champion in each team, onboarding, office hours, handover to support.
- Change management, rollout, training and enablement content.
- Honest reconciliation of instrumented usage against self-reported benefit, and ownership of the gap.Coaching and mentoring product managers, particularly those earlier in their careers, in continuous discovery, outcome framing, evidence-based decision-making and AI-native practice.
- The AI literacy curriculum for the product organization — designed and taught or outsourced.




- Recurring forums where teams share what they discovered and what they decided.A metric-led reporting cadence to senior leadership, including the results that did not work.
- The trade-off framework — speed, reliability, cost, data risk — communicated in writing.Governance partnership- The product-side data decisions: what data each surface accepts, which model serves which use case, and the guardrails that go with it.
- Partnership with Legal, Privacy, Security and IT on data classification, model approval, access and responsible-AI standards.QualificationsRequired- Senior product leadership experience in enterprise B2B SaaS, with end-to-end ownership from discovery through delivery, and the ability to show what changed as a result.
- You can discuss model trade-offs, data requirements, cost and latency with engineers without needing first-principles explanations.
- Strong research and evidence practice: usability testing, interviews, journey mapping, surveys, A/B testing — run to a professional standard and taught to others.
- Product analytics fluency (for example Amplitude, Pendo, Tableau) and the quantitative literacy to define a metric that survives scrutiny.
- Facilitation skills with senior and skeptical audiences, and experience designing and delivering enablement or training programmes.
- Commercial judgement: business-case creation, budget ownership, and vendor or partner evaluation.
