Job Title : Product Manager (Tech-to-PM | Ground-Up Product)

Location : Bangalore, India (On-site)

Type : Full-time

Company Overview -.About the Company You will join BIGAIRLAB (https://www.bigairlab.com/)(part of a group of companies) at a critical pilot-to-scale phase of our product journey. We are a lean, high-growth technology & AI venture, building enterprise and consumer-facing AI products across India, UAE, and the US.

As we move from prototype to scalable product, we are looking for a hands-on Product Manager who was a developer until recently and transitioned into Product Management in the last 1–2 years. This role requires robust technical depth, the ability to think like an engineer, and the mindset of a product owner who can drive clarity, execution, and rapid iteration.

Key Responsibilities

- Own and drive the end-to-end product lifecycle: ideation, requirements, MVP definition, development, launch, iteration, and scale.
- Define product vision, roadmap, and priorities in close partnership with founders and key stakeholders.
- Translate business and customer needs into clear product requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, and backlog prioritization.
- Work deeply with engineering teams (frontend, backend, QA, AI/ML, and UI/UX) to ensure feasibility, quality, and timely delivery.
- Leverage your prior developer experience to review technical approaches, understand architecture trade-offs, APIs, data flows, and performance constraints.
- Act as the bridge between business and engineering—ensuring clarity, speed, and alignment, especially during the pilot phase.
- Define, track, and improve product metrics and KPIs (usage, adoption, performance, user feedback, reliability).
- Drive agile execution: sprint planning, reviews, backlog grooming, and release planning.
- Collaborate with stakeholders across business, operations, sales, and customer teams to manage expectations and ensure alignment.
- Support go-to-market activities including documentation, release notes, and early customer feedback loops.





Required Qualifications & Skills

- Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science / Engineering or equivalent technical discipline.
- Strong prior experience as a software developer, with a transition into a Product Manager role within the last 1–2 years.
- Hands-on understanding of both frontend and backend systems:
- Frontend: modern web frameworks, UX considerations, performance tradeoffs.
- Backend: APIs, databases, system architecture, integrations, scalability.
- Ability to comfortably deep-dive with engineers and challenge or validate technical decisions.
- Working knowledge of AI/ML-driven products, data pipelines, or LLM-based systems is a strong plus.
- Experience working in startup or early-stage environments, preferably on products built from the ground up.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; data-driven approach to decisionmaking.
- Excellent communication skills—able to articulate technical concepts to nontechnical stakeholders.
- Comfortable with ambiguity, rapid change, and wearing multiple hats.

Desirable / Nice-to-Have

- Exposure to SaaS, enterprise B2B, or AI-first products.
- Experience working with or building products for India and/or Middle East (UAE) markets.
- MBA or formal product management training is a plus (but not mandatory).

Ideal Candidate Profile

- A former engineer turned Product Manager, still close to the code and deeply technical.
- Someone who enjoys building from zero to one, not just optimizing mature products.
- Comfortable switching between strategy and execution, vision and detail.
- Collaborative, decisive, and ownership-driven.
- Motivated by impact, learning, and growth rather than rigid role boundaries.

What We Offer

- Opportunity to play a foundational role in shaping a core product and company direction.
- High ownership, visibility, and direct collaboration with founders.
- Exposure to global markets (India, UAE, US).
- Competitive compensation with base + performance bonus + equity/ESOPs.
- Fast-paced environment with real responsibility and rapid learning.
