Roadmaps, PRDs, OKRs, feature-request triage, release management, KPI dashboards: today these processes are spread across Notion, Jira, and Slack, each maintained on the side by someone with a different day job. Your mission is to turn them into one coherent, AI-powered delivery machine — while keeping processes lean and avoiding bureaucracy. This is a founding role, reporting directly to the CPO. You’ll partner closely with the Heads of Product across our tech groups and interface with Engineering, Design, Commercial, and Support wherever the Product OS touches their work. We’re hiring this role now because AI has changed the equation: PRD generation, feature-request triage, release notes, and many of the other day-to-day Product workflows can now be AI-powered — and chained together they materially change how PMs spend their week. You’ll build that future at Pliant. WHAT YOU’LL DO - Own and continuously evolve Pliant’s Product Operating System — roadmaps, PRDs, OKRs, feature-request triage, release management, retros, KPIs — turning today’s disparate, side-of-desk processes into one coherent system. - Design and ship AI-powered workflows that take work off PMs’ plates — from PRD drafting to feature-request triage to release notes — and chain them together across the OS. - Drive consistency across our tech organisation where it matters, while preserving autonomy for teams where it doesn’t. - Build the Product analytics foundation: together with our Data team build and maintain the dashboarding infrastructure, KPI governance, data quality standards, and tooling that enable the Product team to work with data, derive insights, and make roadmap decisions. - Evaluate and rationalise the Product tool stack — Notion, Jira, the AI builder layer (Cursor, Claude Code, n8n, Gumloop, Notion AI), and what comes next. - Evangelise and enable: coach PMs on new tools and workflows, capture institutional knowledge, raise the bar for what good Product work looks like at Pliant. - Stay close to adjacent functions — Engineering, Design, Commercial, Support, etc. — so the Product OS interfaces cleanly with theirs. - Shape what Product Operations becomes at Pliant as the function grows. WHAT YOU’LL BRING - 3–5+ years in Product Operations, Product Management, Strategy & Operations, Technical Program Management, or similar — ideally with time in a fast-growing B2B SaaS or platform business. - Hands-on AI power-user, with day-to-day fluency in modern AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Notion AI, etc.). Strongly preferred: you also build with them — prompting, evals, low-code/no-code workflows (n8n, Gumloop, Make
