Principal Product Manager, GenAI Advertising Platform (Mailchimp)

Overview

The Vision: AI-First, Outcomes-as-a-Service

At Intuit Mailchimp, we are redefining digital advertising for small and mid-market businesses (SMBs). The real challenge isn’t running ads—it’s achieving predictable growth without complexity.

Our mission is to make world-class advertising as effortless as possible for every SMB. We’re transforming ad creation and optimization into a simple, prompt-driven experience: the business states its goal—“Get 10 qualified leads this week” or “Increase online sales by 20%”—and our Generative AI platform autonomously designs, executes, and optimizes the campaign across channels.

This role is for a visionary Principal who will architect, launch, and scale the platform and AI systems that make this “done-for-you” promise real — turning advanced advertising into something any business owner can do in minutes.
