About the Role

The Head of Product will translate research into shipped, public-facing products like agent evaluation platforms, benchmarks, leaderboards, datasets, developer tools, and community launches. This senior, 0-to-1 leadership role involves defining best practices in a nascent category, building and leading a team, and owning the Foundation's product function and roadmap, including the existing Agents & Evaluation (Eval AI) product effort.

Responsibilities

  • Own 0-to-1 launches end to end, translating research agendas into product specs, user journeys, success metrics, and launch plans.
  • Own the Foundation’s product function, including strategy, roadmap, and priorities.
  • Lead the Agents & Evaluation product team.
  • Act as the Foundation’s primary product counterpart to Sentient Labs’ research and product teams, translating their research into Foundation products and aligning roadmaps.
  • Package technical work into usable products such as documentation, demos, benchmarks, leaderboards, blog posts, and developer workflows.
  • Run developer-facing programs including public challenges, competitions, hackathons, cohorts, and partner-backed launches.
  • Build feedback loops from developers, researchers, partners, and open-source contributors into the roadmap.
  • Shape product strategy for emerging categories like agent evaluation and open-source AI distribution.

Requirements

  • 4+ years of product experience in AI/ML, developer platforms, infrastructure, or technical tools.
  • Experience leading a product team or owning a product function.
  • Experience leading people and operating as a senior cross-org partner.
  • Track record of shipping complex 0-to-1 products in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
  • Hands-on familiarity with LLMs, AI agents, evals, benchmarking, or model deployment workflows.
  • Technical background required to debate tradeoffs with researchers and engineers.
  • Exceptional communication skills to translate dense technical work into product narratives.
  • High ownership and urgency; comfortable being the connective tissue across many stakeholders.
