Aiuc The Founding Product Lead at Aiuc will translate strategic vision into product priorities and drive execution for AIUC-1, the standard for AI agents. This role manages product cadence, writes specs, tests hypotheses, and leads the product to general availability and beyond.

Responsibilities

AIUC-1 is the standard for AI agents. Enterprises use it to decide which agents they can trust. Over the last year, we certified agents for some of the most demanding companies in AI, alongside their teams and their auditors. Now we are turning that work into a product every company building agents can use.
As the founding product lead, you will work directly with our cofounders to translate their strategic vision into product priorities, and close the gap between that vision and what gets shipped. You hold the product agenda, test hypotheses, surface the cruxes, and drive us to decisions and execution. This is the first product hire at AIUC and the company’s top hiring priority as we gear up for GA. As you learn how we think, you take on more of the product decisions, with room to build the product function as we scale.
Run the weekly product cadence across engineering, delivery and GTM
Break the product into pieces, chunk the work, and write specs with a clear definition of done
Dig into product data to test hypotheses and bring the founders a clear answer.
Set deadlines, unblock engineers, and make sure what we said would ship does ship.
Take our certification product to general availability, then into new agent types and products.

Required

You think in systems. You can hold a complex product in your head and break it into clear, sequenced work.
You are a relentless operator. Deadlines energise you and loose ends bother you.
You ground your views in analysis, not storytelling.
You are senior, but you want to learn how we think before telling us how it should work.
We are in the business of building trust. We take our values seriously and treat them as commitments to each other, held to the same bar as the ones we make to customers.
Strong back: high standards, keep our promises, work hard.
Fast feet: experiment, cut scope, take delight in pace.
Eyes up: wrestle with the mission, and let where AI is heading shape our strategy, our teams and our day-to-day work.
Open heart: say the scary thing, create connection, make room for emotions.
Underwriting superintelligence is our life's work. If you want it to be yours, apply now.
