Job description
About the Role
This is a reimagined senior director-level product management leadership role for the agentic era, with direct influence over FanDuel's consumer-facing and enterprise AI products. The role leads a team of AI product managers in the AI Platforms & Experiences (APEX) team and owns one high-leverage agentic product surface end-to-end, in collaboration with product managers and designers across tech and commercial. The AI portfolio spans consumer-facing chat experiences, agentic marketing workflows and automation, AI-powered product and software development, and an emerging agentic platform.
Key Responsibilities
- Own end-to-end accountability for one high-leverage agentic product surface and one or more workstreams (growth and marketing, customer experience, product innovation, enterprise acceleration), including strategy, roadmap, prioritisation, and outcomes.
- Build alongside engineers with AI as the primary force multiplier, prototyping with Claude Code, Cursor, Lovable, and modern agent frameworks.
- Design and operate evaluation systems — golden sets, offline evals, online experiments, drift and regression detection, and human-rater pipelines — for every surface owned, defining what 'good' means in numbers before shipping.
- Mentor and coach AI product managers across the AI and wider product organisation through pairing, design reviews, written critique, prototype tear-downs, and a shared pattern library; supervise multiple AI product managers in the AI Engineering Organisation.
- Set the standard for AI-native product management craft across the function by writing and maintaining CLAUDE.md files, building MCP-aware tooling for the product management team, sharing patterns in writing, and pairing with other product managers on hard problems.
- Partner daily with business partners, forward-deployed engineers, AI software engineering pods, AI Platform, Trust & Safety, Responsible AI, and Legal to translate ambiguous business problems into agent-shaped solutions that respect FanDuel's regulatory and responsible-gambling posture.
- Treat their own product management workflow as a system to instrument, automate, and continuously improve.
Required Experience & Qualifications
- 10-12+ years of product management experience, including 3+ years shipping AI and/or LLM-powered products in production.
- Demonstrated fluency building with modern AI development tools, including the ability to point to prototypes, agents, evals, MCP servers, or pull requests they have personally built.
- Strong technical depth: comfortable reading and writing code, participating in system design conversations, and working in an eval notebook; not required to be a senior engineer, but engineers should want to pair with them.
- Working understanding of agentic infrastructure, including MCP, orchestration patterns, tool use, retrieval, context engineering, prompt evaluation, and runtime observability.
- Track record operating as a player-coach — elevating peers and shaping practice without org-chart authority.
- Demonstrated experience designing or operating evaluation systems for ML or LLM products at meaningful scale.
- Sharp written communication with a strong bias toward written artefacts — one-pagers, decision memos, RFCs, and postmortems.
Benefits & Perks
- An array of health plans, some as low as $0 per paycheck, including programs for fertility and family planning, mental health support, and fitness benefits.
- Medical, vision, and dental insurance; life insurance; and disability insurance.
- 401(k) matching program with up to a 5% match.
- Annual bonus and long-term incentive opportunities based on performance; potential eligibility for short-term or long-term incentive compensation, including cash bonuses and stock program participation.
- Generous paid time off (PTO and sick leave), paid personal time off, 14 paid company holidays, and paid sick time in accordance with applicable state and federal laws.
- Commuter benefits and pet insurance.
- Benefits differ across location, role, and level.
