About the role

This is not a traditional roadmap PM role, and it is not an implementation-only delivery role.
You will work with customers who have complex workflows, fragmented data, security constraints, and high expectations.

did we create so much value that the customer does not want to live without Bolo when the pilot ends?
Own customer engagements from discovery through deployment, adoption, and measurable impact.
Build credibility with customer stakeholders across field teams, technical teams, executives, and commercial buyers.
Partner with engineering to turn customer workflows and datasets into stable, extensible AI-powered solutions.
Manage tradeoffs across customer urgency, technical complexity, commercial value, and long-term product reuse.
Scope phased deployments that create value quickly without creating unsustainable custom work.

A track record of running complex client-facing work under ambiguity, including scoping problems, aligning stakeholders, managing tradeoffs, and driving to a concrete outcome.
Direct PM experience is not required, but you should be able to define MVP scope, write clear requirements, make prioritization tradeoffs, and distinguish customer-specific requests from reusable product patterns.
You can push back without becoming defensive or overly accommodating.
That means you are not just delivering one-off customer requests.

Real curiosity about AI.
You actively experiment with AI tools and can think critically about where they work, where they fail, and what it takes to make them reliable in production.
Exposure to energy, oil and gas, heavy industry, applied AI/ML, or LLM-based products is a strong plus.

We offer competitive compensation, generous PTO, flexible working hours, an office in Palo Alto for in-person collaboration, and the following:
Ownership & Impact: Equity options so you can share in our success as we grow and shape the future together.
You will be accountable for both customer success and product learning.
Hybrid Work Environment: Enjoy a flexible hybrid schedule-collaborate in person and work from home.

Customers are already using Bolo to catch critical equipment failures, recover hidden cost impact, automate operational workflows, and put decades of industrial data to work.
Backed by True Ventures, Benchstrength, Accomplice, Analog Ventures, and Beat Ventures, we are a small, AI-native team working close to the customer to make their daily work faster, safer, and better.
