Associate Forward Deployed Product Manager

How do you turn a decades-old dataset into an industry-leading medical coding agent? Teach an AI receptionist to book appointments in Spanish? Automatically generate working data connectors from API docs? Build agents that write, test, and deploy their own software packages?

Fractional AI is a startup in the heart of Silicon Valley targeting the biggest greenfield opportunity in the economy: transforming companies with AI software at a scale the market is only beginning to understand. Our clients include Zapier, Airbyte, and companies from industries ranging from data infrastructure to healthcare and life sciences.

We were founded by repeat founders Chris Taylor, Eddie Siegel, and Travis May (Founder of Datavant, $7B exit), and are backed by Shaper Capital. Most of our engineers are former founders or staff engineers from top tech companies like Google and Stripe.

We're headquartered in SF with offices in NYC, Raleigh-Durham, and Dubai.

Our customers come to us with ambitious, often fuzzy goals — make content moderation faster, customer service cheaper and better, unlock new integrations, automate the workflows no one else can touch.

Your job is to help turn those goals into AI-powered solutions that work in the real world. You'll work closely with experienced team members while ramping to own parts of projects end-to-end. Ownership scales with performance: you'll take on more responsibility, including running projects, as soon as you demonstrate you're ready. You'll be expected to grow into independently running projects within 12–24 months.

This is a forward-deployed, full-stack customer role:

• Part engagement manager — you build trust quickly and own day-to-day with the client.

• Part product manager — you help drive what we build and why.

• Part delivery/program manager — you run the execution motion.

• Part operator — you jump into the gaps to keep things moving without waiting to be asked.

You'll work on small engineering pods (2–5 engineers and a senior PM), shipping multiple AI products every year.

You'll take ownership of execution and delivery operations while building toward full ownership of end-to-end projects.
