Principal Product Manager

Job description

**About Tactiq** Tactiq transforms meetings from where work gets discussed to where work gets delivered. With excellence. Over 1 million users across tens of thousands of teams rely on Tactiq to turn meeting conversations into exceptional outcomes. We're a Series A, Sydney-based SaaS company building AI note taker for Google Meet, Zoom, MS Teams. We're product-led growth: individuals adopt → teams form organically → enterprises discover value → they come to us. A great product that users love. We're a small, AI-enabled team. That means high leverage, high autonomy, and every decision compounds. **The Role** As Principal Product Manager, you'll own the product strategy and execution across one of our initiatives: Growth & Distribution, Core AI Excellence, Team & Collaboration, and Monetization & Packaging. This is a hands-on builder role. You'll prototype with AI tools, set up experiments, dig into analytics, talk to users weekly, and ship fast. You won't wait for engineering to build you a dashboard or data science to run your analysis—you'll do it yourself. This isn't traditional PM work. No lengthy PRDs. No stakeholder management theater. This is: identify the problem, build the hypothesis, test it, learn, iterate. Repeat. **What You'll Actually Do Day-to-Day** - **Build with AI:** Prototype features using Cursor, Claude, Lovable, or internal tools. Test prompts. Ship MVPs. - **Run experiments:** Set up A/B tests, define success metrics, analyze results, make the call. - **Deep dive analytics:** Pull your own data in Mixpanel/SQL. Find the insight no one else sees. - **Talk to users:** Weekly user interviews. Not quarterly research projects—continuous discovery. - **Iterate fast:** Ship → measure → learn → ship again. Weeks, not months. **You Might Be a Good Fit If You** - Have 8+ years in product roles, with at least 3+ years in B2B SaaS PLG - Have **built products with AI,** not just managed AI products. You've engineered prompts, tested models, shipped AI features. - Are **deeply technical:** Launched your own products, build dashboards, and write a PR if needed. - Have **set up and run A/B tests** end-to-end: hypothesis, instrumentation, analysis, decision. - Do **continuous user research:** You talk to users weekly. You can run a 20-minute interview that uncovers what surveys never would. - **Iterate fast** - Understand PLG mechanics: activation, habit loops, expansion triggers. You've built products that grow themselves. - Are a builder first: You'd rather ship a rough prototype today than a polished spec next week. **Bonus Points:** - You've been a founding PM or sole PM at a high-growth or YCombinator startup - You have experience with Chrome extensions or browser-based products - You've built AI agents, MCPs, or workflow automations - You've worked on meeting/productivity/collaboration tools - You understand the Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams ecosystems **Why Join Tactiq** - **Equity:** Stock options are part of the package. You'll have real ownership in what you're building. - **Leverage:** Small AI-enabled team = 10x the impact. You'll own core product decisions. - **Ownership:** Principal-level scope without layers of approval. Your judgment matters. - **Timing:** AI meeting intelligence is early. The category is being defined now. You'll shape it. - **Scale:** 1M+ users, real revenue, PLG motion working. You're not starting from zero. - **Learning:** This is where you learn to build with AI at the cutting edge. We're shipping AI-native product at startup speed - **Modern Tooling:** Linear, Mixpanel, Intercom, Miro, Notion, Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT and whatever else you need. - **Flexibility:** Remote-friendly, autonomy-first culture. We trust you to do your best work. **Our Values** - **Build what is right for the customer:** We move from customer feedback to customer outcomes ASAP. - **Ship fast but thoughtfully:** We look ahead, but deliver every day. Outcomes over activity. - **Data-driven decision making:** We use rigorous analytical thinking. Data informs, intuition guides. - **Autonomy allows us to do our best work:** We work independently, collaborate in small teams, keep noise minimal. - **Transparency, trust, empathy:** We communicate clearly, share openly, and elevate each other. - **Measured growth drives long-term success:** We don't grow for growth's sake. We organize ourselves to bring out the best in our people and focus on what customers need. **To Apply** Send us at growth2025 @ tactiq io a brief note (1-2 sentences each) covering: 1.
