The Principal Product Manager will own a product suite, set strategy, lead engineering teams without direct reports, conduct customer interviews, prioritize work, and partner with design and leadership teams to deliver customer value.
The summary above was generated by AI

At Didero, we’re building the autonomous supply chain, starting with agentic supplier management.

Global trade has never been more complex or more critical. Teams are underwater, reacting to a flood of challenges — from geopolitical risk to tariffs. Didero helps by automating time-intensive workflows with AI agents, deploying cutting-edge technology into one of the world’s most vital domains.

We’re backed by some of the world’s best venture funds and leading figures across AI, supply chain, and enterprise software.

About the role

We're hiring a Principal Product Manager to own a suite of products end-to-end and drive an engineering pod from strategy through customer value. You'll set the vision for a meaningful slice of Didero's surface area and be accountable for the outcomes that suite delivers to the business and to customers.

This is a senior individual contributor role reporting directly to the Head of Product. You won't manage people, but you will lead. You'll set direction for a pod of engineers, partner with designers, and act as the GM of your product suite. The strategy, the prioritization, and the execution are yours to own.

You'll have direct access to customers, the founding team, and leadership. We'll trust you to define what wins look like in your domain and to drive the team toward it without heavy process overhead.

Please note: This is a hybrid role based in New York, NY.

What you'll do
  • Own a product suite end-to-end. Set the multi-quarter strategy and roadmap for a portfolio of related products, tied to company objectives and customer outcomes

  • Lead a pod of engineers without managing them. Set direction, build trust, and create the conditions for the team to do its best work

  • Lead discovery at depth. Run customer interviews, sit on customer calls, analyze usage data, and develop a point of view on procurement workflows that customers themselves can't yet articulate

  • Make the hard prioritization calls. Sequence work across multiple products and customer segments with imperfect information, and defend those calls to leadership and the team

  • Write specs and strategy docs that move people. Your writing is the primary tool for aligning engineers, designers, customers, and the executive team

  • Ship iteratively and instrument what matters. Define the success metrics for your suite, build the feedback loops, and adjust based on what you learn

  • Represent your domain externally. Show up for customers, prospects, and investors as the credible owner of your area, and partner with sales, customer success, and marketing to close the loop from signal to roadmap to revenue

How you'll work

With your engineering pod:

  • You provide: vision, prioritized roadmap, customer context, and success criteria

  • Engineering owns: technical approach, architecture, and implementation

  • You co-create: scoping, timeline tradeoffs, and iteration cycles

With design:

  • You provide: customer insights, business context, workflow requirements, and prioritization

  • Design owns: user research, UX strategy, flows, and visual execution

  • You co-create: feature scoping, success metrics, and experience tradeoffs

With the Head of Product and leadership:

  • You bring: a clear point of view on your domain, the tradeoffs you're making, and what you need to be successful

  • You'll get: high trust, fast decisions, and direct access to customers and the founding team

You'll be successful in this role if you…
  • Have exceptional product sense. You weigh business, technical, and UX tradeoffs fluently and prioritize pragmatically across a portfolio, not just a single product

  • Have shipped 0→1 multiple times. You've taken products from idea to real customer value as the primary PM, and you know what early signal looks like vs. noise

  • Lead through influence. You set direction and drive outcomes through engineers and designers who don't report to you, by being the person on the team with the clearest view of the problem and the highest standard for the answer

  • Are technically fluent. You can hold your own in conversations on system architecture, data models, agent design, and integration constraints, and you use that fluency to make better product calls

  • Thrive in ambiguity. You create structure, set direction, and generate momentum rather than waiting for it

  • Write exceptionally well. Your strategy docs, specs, and customer-facing writing are clear, concise, and move people to action

  • Are customer-obsessed. You'd rather spend an hour with a customer than in an internal meeting

  • Balance depth and speed. You know when a problem deserves a week of thinking and when it deserves a prototype by Friday

Qualifications
  • 8+ years in product management, with at least 3 years owning a product area or suite independently

  • Multiple 0→1 products shipped as the primary PM, with measurable customer impact

  • Track record of leading engineering pods through influence rather than authority, driving outcomes without direct reports

  • Experience operating in low-process, high-trust environments where the PM is the forcing function

  • B2B SaaS experience required

  • Strong written and verbal communication, including with executive and customer audiences

Bonus points for:

  • Seed or Series A startup experience, ideally as an early product hire

  • Familiarity with procurement, supply chain, ERP systems, or manufacturing

  • Experience with AI/ML products, agentic systems, or automation workflows

What We Value
  • We make the world feel smaller - We support each other and break down boundaries, both internally and for our customers

  • We build supply chain magic - We push the boundaries of what technology can do and go above and beyond for our users

  • We are lifelong learners - We move fast, embrace failure, and give feedback generously

  • We show up - We’re scrappy entrepreneurs, no job is beneath us

  • We BELIEVE! - We’re building a great, enduring company and we have fun doing it.

What We Offer:
  • Competitive compensation and equity

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance

  • Unlimited PTO — we trust you to take the time you need

  • Monthly wellness stipend via ClassPass

  • Tech equipment for your setup

  • Catered lunches (for those in the office)
