What are the responsibilities and job description for the Sr. Technical Product Manager position at Inherent Technologies?
Position: Sr. Technical Product Manager
Location: Bellevue, WA***Onsite***
Duration: 1 Year
Job Description
What You'll Do
Embed with internal teams and external customers to understand their workflows, pain points, and goals - then design and deploy solutions that fit.
Build production-quality code, integrations, and automations across AI/GenAI, data, and software platforms to solve concrete business problems.
Prototype rapid prototypes and proofs-of-concept, iterate based on direct user feedback, and move them into reliable, scalable production.
Integrate data pipelines, APIs, and third-party systems, handling the real-world messiness of enterprise environments.
Partner with end users and stakeholders - running demos, gathering requirements, troubleshooting live, and translating technical concepts into business value.
Feed recurring pain points and friction back to product and engineering teams to influence the core roadmap.
Monitor and improve solutions for reliability, performance, and adoption after launch - you own outcomes, not just deliverables.
Establish the playbooks, standards, and tooling for the FDE function, and mentor junior engineers as the team grows.
Experience
8 years building and shipping software in production, including significant time owning complex, ambiguous projects end-to-end with minimal supervision.
Technical depth: Deep, hands-on programming expertise (e.g., Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, or Go), strong system design judgment, and fluency working across the full stack and with APIs.
Platform fluency: Proven experience with data tools (SQL, pipelines, warehouses such as Snowflake/Databricks) and/or AI/GenAI tooling (LLMs, RAG, agentic workflows).
You bring real breadth and adapt quickly to the right tool for the problem.
Customer-facing Track Record
A track record of customer-facing or forward-deployed work - you've shipped solutions directly with end users, navigated enterprise complexity, and earned the trust of senior stakeholders.
Leadership
You've led projects, set technical direction, and raised the bar for those around you - formally or informally.
Communication
Exceptional written and verbal communication; you translate fluidly between deep technical detail and executive-level business value. Bias for action: You ship, learn, and iterate
Nice To Have
Experience deploying AI/ML or LLM-based solutions in an enterprise setting.
Cloud experience (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and familiarity with CI/CD and containerization. Experience as a founding or early member of a new team or function.
Telecommunications or large-scale enterprise data domain knowledge.
Expectations From This Role
Acts under some guidance from Product Engineer II to
Understand product requirements and user stories from customer discovery process
Create high/low level design document and maintain necessary artefacts
Ensure requirements coverage of complex features with unit test cases
Troubleshooting development and production problems across multiple environments and operating platforms, provide technical guidance to the team to resolve challenging programming and design problems
Create effort estimation and ETA for the deliverables, ensure adherence to timelines/SLAs wherever applicable
Ensure code coverage and code quality by active participation in code reviews
Ensure adherence to the best practices and standards with provision of periodic status updates
Execute test cases and prepare release document in line with the requirements
Ensure career progression for Associate Product Engineers via focused mentoring and grooming
Optimises efficiency, cost and quality
Influence and improve customer satisfaction
Set OKRs for self/team and also provide feedback to these goals of team members
Typical Performance Measures
Product Requirements:
Review Test Cases / Test Plan; Conduct Integration testing and resolve defects/bugs
Product Training And Documentation
Provide inputs to technical publications and review documentation of key features, as required.
Product Sign Offs
Provide inputs on the status of the module development to the development lead.
