创始产品经理

Askdodo · San Francisco / Bay Area (in-person preferred)
Full-time · Equity + Salary
The best AI shouldn’t live behind a closed wall. Askdodo is building consumer AI on frontier open-source models — so users get cutting-edge capability without being locked into one lab’s stack.
Privacy is how we ship it: no surveillance tax, user control, private by design. Open models are the mission; privacy is the foundation that makes that mission trustworthy.
We’re hiring a founding Product Manager — someone early in their career who can own product end-to-end with the founders. Marketing and public brand stay with the founding team; you make the product impossible to leave.
What you’ll do

• Own core product loops: chat + API experience, onboarding, retention, and privacy UX that users actually understand

• Turn “private by design” into clear product decisions (not marketing copy)

• Ship fast with eng — specs, prioritization, experiments, launch notes

• Talk to users (power users, privacy-conscious builders, early adopters) and turn signal into roadmap

• Partner with founders on positioning when product needs a public narrative

Must-haves

• Technical background (CS / eng / math / physics degree or equivalent technical work)

• Experience or internships at an AI / consumer software company (or shipping consumer products with real users)

• Passion for consumer products — you obsess over craft, clarity, and delight

• Comfortable in US / Bay Area startup culture

• Early-career founding energy (new grad to ~2–4 years) — IC who still ships, not a process PM

• Curious about open source LLMs and privacy

Nice-to-haves

• Built or shipped an AI feature, agent workflow, or consumer app (0→1 signal)

• Comfortable reading technical docs / APIs (OpenAI-compatible stacks a plus)

• Cross-cultural experience

• Some public presence (writing, demos, podcasts) is a bonus

Not a fit

• Pure brand / CMO / social-first marketers (founders cover that)

• Enterprise B2B PMs with no consumer DNA

• Non-technical PMs who can’t partner deeply with eng

• Big-co process owners who need heavy process to move

How to apply
Apply via Handshake / Crimson Careers, or email with:

• Your résumé

• A short note on one consumer or AI product you shipped (or would ship) and why open-source LLMs matter to you
