Remote Position

[Remote] Principal Product Manager- Conversational AI

🌍 Remote · United States 💼 Full-time

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Hopper is a global travel platform and travel technology provider serving consumers and enterprise partners. The Principal Product Manager will own the customer-facing conversational AI agent across chat and voice, driving its roadmap, conversation design, interfaces, quality standards, partner requirements, and production iteration.

Responsibilities

  • Own the roadmap for the customer-facing conversational agent across chat and voice, from intent coverage and conversation design to the interfaces partners embed in their apps and websites
  • Set the product bar for voice specifically, covering latency, turn-taking, barge-in handling, localization, realtime voice and ASR/TTS quality, since a caller's tolerance for a bad interaction is lower than a chat user's
  • Engage enterprise partners through discovery, requirement shaping, and launch decisions, translating partner asks into product choices that keep one product serving many partners
  • Partner with Partner Solutions on implementation and onboarding
  • Drive design daily, working hands-on in Figma to produce flows and wireframes, and partner with design on high-fidelity and production assets
  • Build working prototypes using AI coding tools where they beat a written spec, to test conversation flows and interface ideas
  • Define and defend quality bars with the evaluation team, covering resolution rate, containment, escalation correctness, and conversation quality across both chat and voice
  • Specify agent behavior in detail, including resolution, tone, escalation policy, guardrails, and edge cases, and iterate from production conversation data
  • Stay close to GTM, Partner Solutions, and Success teams, feeding what the field learns back into the roadmap

Skills

  • 8+ years of product management experience, including principal or lead-level ownership of a customer-facing product, with direct experience shipping voice-based conversational products such as IVR, voice bots, or contact center voice automation
  • Hands-on ownership of a production voice product, not only chat or text-based conversational AI, with working knowledge of ASR/TTS tradeoffs, latency budgets, and turn-taking or barge-in design. This is a required skillset
  • Design fluency, comfortable manipulating design files and producing flows and basic mocks solo in Figma, having operated as a de facto design lead on a lean team
  • The ability to write enough code to get a prototype working without waiting on an engineer, treating AI tools as a normal part of how they build
  • Hands-on front-end experience, having built or shipped web front ends and able to engage engineers credibly
  • Deep partner-facing experience with enterprise clients, ideally in regulated industries, shaping requirements and launch decisions at the product level
  • A data-driven approach grounded in customer service and automation metrics, including resolution, containment, CSAT, and escalation quality
  • Working familiarity with LLM-based products, including prompt and behavior design, AI quality practices, and their failure modes

Benefits

  • Pre-IPO equity packages
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Carrot Cash travel stipend
  • Access to co-working space on demand through FlexDesk
  • Work-from-home stipend
  • Generous parental leave, much above industry standards
  • 100% employer paid Medical, Dental and Vision coverage for employees
  • Access to Disability and Life insurance
  • Health Reimbursement Account (HRA)
  • DCA/FSA
  • Access to a 401k plan
