About the role

Handshake AI powers expert-labeled data collection at scale, matching domain experts with leading AI companies to train frontier models.
This role is analogous to our RLE (Reinforcement Learning Environments) PM.
You'll operate in high ambiguity-customers are still figuring out what "good" looks like, and the scope of coding as a data type is evolving.

We're hiring a Senior Product Manager, Coding to own the roadmap for one of our frontier data modalities: coding.
You'll work closely with a cross-functional squad (engineering, design, operations) and with customer-facing teams to turn early signals into a repeatable offering.
Roadmap and scope. Make hard tradeoffs. We can't build everything; you'll decide what we build first and what we defer, and communicate that clearly to engineering, operations, and leadership.
Cross-functional leadership. Lead a squad with engineering and design partners. Partner with Operator Experience, Fellow Experience, and other modality PMs-your scope enables and constrains theirs.

You must have worked as a software developer at a tech company.
You must have operated on a small, early-stage team in a context where you were discovering customer problems, not just executing a known playbook.
Familiarity with AI/ML training data, annotation workflows, or code evaluation benchmarks

FAANG or equivalent is strongly preferred.
5+ years in product, including time as a PM partnering with engineering to ship.
Experience in a frontier or emerging domain (new data type, new customer segment, 0→1) is a strong plus.
