• REST/SOAP APIs and enterprise integrations
• Application and microservices architecture
• Cloud infrastructure and AWS/Azure environments
• CI/CD and DevOps pipelines
• Databases and data dependencies
• Development, QA, UAT, staging, and production environments
• Authentication, access, networking, and security dependencies

• Defects, logs, monitoring, incidents, and root-cause analysis

The TPM should be able to understand what is blocked, why it matters, who owns it, what it affects, and what needs to happen next.

Preferred Experience

Experience in one or more of the following areas would be an advantage:

• Enterprise Integration – Dell Boomi, APIs, Middleware, EDI
• AWS or Azure Cloud
• DevOps and CI/CD
• Data Engineering or Data Platforms

• Projects have clear plans, ownership, milestones, and technical dependencies.
• Risks and blockers are identified early rather than discovered at the point of failure.
• Engineering teams have the information, access, environments, and decisions required to execute.
• Technical issues are translated into clear schedule and business impact.
• Delivery commitments are actively managed rather than simply reported.
• Clients and leadership receive accurate and timely visibility into project health.
• Releases and go-lives are planned, controlled, and supported through stabilization.
• Project-management overhead is reduced through effective use of automation and AI.

Product Manager – AI/GenAI

Our AI platform that lets people ask questions of their enterprise data in natural language and get trustworthy answers. The hard part isn't the model — it's the fit between what the product can genuinely do and what customers actually need, over data that is never as clean as anyone hopes. We're hiring a Product Manager to own that fit: to do the detailed thinking on customer pain, competitive landscape, and where the technology is going, and to turn it into a sharp, defensible product proposition and roadmap. You'll work closely with the CTO (who currently carries this thinking) and become the person who owns the depth beneath it.

What you'll own

• Proposition & positioning. Take fuzzy capability and turn it into a clear, honest, defensible articulation of what Jiva is, who it's for, and why it wins. Kill the gap between what's sold and what's deliverable.

• Customer intelligence (within the current structure). Sales and Delivery own the customer relationship today; you build the customer picture through them —mining PoC post-mortems, win/loss, readiness audits, sales-call notes, and Delivery's ground truth. Extract real jobs-to-be-done, separate stated wants from underlying pain, and bring a synthesized customer voice into the room. Over time, earn a path to direct customer contact — but you'll start by getting more 

out of the signal the field teams already carry than anyone does today.

• Competitive & technology intelligence. Track the space — RAG, text-to-SQL, tabular/relational foundation models, agentic systems, the commercial players — and synthesize it into product direction. Know what's real and what's marketing.

• Requirements & roadmap. Translate the above into crisp requirements and a prioritized roadmap, in partnership with Engineering. Make the trade-offs explicit.

• Sales & Delivery enablement. Own the "what we can honestly promise" story so field teams stop overselling and start qualifying. You are the source of truth on capability boundaries.

Must-haves

• 5+ years in B2B / enterprise product management, ideally on data, analytics, AI/ML, or platform products.

• Demonstrated ability to frame a proposition — you can show us a product or feature where you turned raw capability into a positioning that won customers. Portfolio evidence, not a claim.

• Technical fluency in AI/data. You understand RAG, LLMs, text-to-SQL, and data quality well enough to judge feasibility vs. hype and to earn engineers' respect. You don't need to code; you need to reason.

• Customer discovery skill — and the resourcefulness to apply it 

indirectly. You've run structured discovery and can distinguish what customers say from what they need. Just as important here: you can extract sharp customer insight secondhand — through sales and delivery teams, deal histories, 

and product usage — because you won't have direct customer access on day one.

• Evidence-driven and structured. You validate before you evangelize. Strong written thinker — you can put a proposition on one page and defend it.

Nice-to-have

• Exposure to NL→SQL, semantic layers, knowledge graphs, or enterprise data governance.

• 0-to-1 or turnaround experience — comfort building the function, not just running it.

• Experience selling into or building for regulated / data-sensitive enterprises
