Lead Product Manager

Lead Product Manager

Own the why, and shape what gets built.

About the Role

We build products for clients, and someone has to own the problem: what we're solving, for whom, and why it matters. As a Lead Product Manager, you lead discovery, set product direction, and turn fuzzy business needs into something the team can actually build. You are the person keeping everyone pointed at the outcome that matters.

You'll work inside a Monks delivery team as a trusted advisor to our clients and the primary product point of contact, partnering closely with engineering and design.

We're all-in on agentic engineering. Tools like Claude Code and Codex are part of our everyday workflow, and we're looking for people who are genuinely fluent working alongside AI coding agents and excited to push those practices further.

Who You Are

A trusted advisor: clients rely on your judgment, and you earn it.

Decisive under ambiguity: you make the call with incomplete information and adjust as you learn.

User- and business-minded: you hold both the customer's need and the client's goals at once.

A clear communicator: you deliver concise, decision-ready updates to any audience.

What You'll Do

Discovery and strategy: run discovery, research, and analysis, and define the product direction and roadmap.

Client partnership: serve as trusted advisor and primary product contact, surface competing needs early, and broker trade-offs.

Delivery: define requirements, prioritize, and manage scope with engineering and design from idea through launch and adoption.

Measurement: define the KPIs that matter and use data to drive iteration.

Risk: spot risks to delivery early and drive mitigation.

What You Bring

5+ years in product management for software or digital products, ideally including 0-to-1 work.

A track record leading end-to-end discovery and turning operational needs into scalable requirements.

Strong stakeholder facilitation and negotiation skills.

Comfort with web technologies, technical concepts, and APIs.

Ability to ramp quickly on an unfamiliar domain.

Goal-oriented, autonomous, and organized.

Strong English communication skills.

Comfortable in a fast-paced, agile consulting environment.

Extra Credit

A consulting or client-facing background.

Experience shipping AI-powered products.

Agile certification (e.g. CSPO).

Experience mentoring other product managers.

Fluency with collaborative tools (Figma, Miro, Jira, or similar).
