Senior Technical Product Manager
About the role
About OpenMined
OpenMined is a nonprofit on a mission to connect the world's non-public, siloed data into a shared network - unlocking 1,000,000× more knowledge across every scientific field and industry, while ensuring it is offered to the world as part of an open, public information network.
Role Overview
You'll be joining a small, highly technical, early-stage team working before product-market fit - where every decision matters and nothing is fully defined. You'll lead the exhilarating process of discovery and iteration that turns cutting-edge privacy and AI research into products that data owners and data scientists actually love to use.
Responsibilities
- Drive discovery, experimentation, and delivery to take Syft from concept to product-market fit serving passionate users
- Conduct user research and go-to-market experiments to uncover workflows, pain points, and incentives that guide product direction
- Collaborate closely with engineers and researchers to define, build, and iterate on deeply technical products that unlock new ways to collaborate on private data
- Translate complex systems into products that work for real users
About You
You're a builder at heart - someone who doesn't wait for clarity but creates it. You've worked in messy, early-stage environments where direction was fuzzy, timelines were tight, and outcomes depended on your ability to turn chaos into momentum.
- You love digging into complex technical problems, understanding them deeply, and translating them into products that actually work for real users
- You don't need a big team or a perfect roadmap to make progress - just a mission that matters and smart people to build with
- You're equally comfortable brainstorming a product vision, debugging a workflow, or jumping into a user call to understand what's not clicking
- You're motivated by purpose and want to build something that makes the world more open, fair, and capable of solving its hardest problems
