About Tactiq

Tactiq transforms meetings from where work gets discussed to where work gets delivered. With excellence.

Over 1 million users across tens of thousands of teams rely on Tactiq to turn meeting conversations into exceptional outcomes. We're a Series A, Sydney-based SaaS company building AI note taker for Google Meet, Zoom, MS Teams, and Webex.

We're product-led growth: individuals adopt → teams form organically → enterprises discover value → they come to us. A great product that users love.

We're a small, AI-enabled team. That means high leverage, high autonomy, and every decision compounds.

The Role

As Principal Product Manager, you'll own the product strategy and execution across our different initiatives: Growth & Distribution, Core AI Excellence, Team & Collaboration, and Monetization & Packaging.

This is a hands-on builder role. You'll prototype with AI tools, set up experiments, dig into analytics, talk to users weekly, and ship fast. You won't wait for engineering to build you a dashboard or data science to run your analysis—you'll do it yourself.

This isn't traditional PM work. No lengthy PRDs. No stakeholder management theater. This is: identify the problem, build the hypothesis, test it, learn, iterate. Repeat.


What You'll Actually Do Day-to-Day

  • Build with AI: Prototype features using Cursor, Claude, GPT, or internal tools. Test prompts. Ship MVPs.
  • Run experiments: Set up A/B tests, define success metrics, analyze results, make the call.
  • Deep dive analytics: Pull your own data in Mixpanel/SQL. Find the insight no one else sees.
  • Talk to users: Weekly user interviews. Not quarterly research projects—continuous discovery.
  • Iterate fast: Ship → measure → learn → ship again. Weeks, not months.


You Might Be a Good Fit If You

  • Have 8 years in product roles, with at least 3 years in B2B SaaS PLG
  • Have built products with AI, not just managed AI products. You've engineered prompts, tested models, shipped AI features.
  • Are deeply technical: You run your own SQL queries, build dashboards, and don't wait for analysts.
  • Have set up and run A/B tests end-to-end: hypothesis, instrumentation, analysis, decision.
  • Do continuous user research: You talk to users weekly. You can run a 20-minute interview that uncovers what surveys never would.
  • Iterate fast
  • Understand PLG mechanics: activation, habit loops, expansion triggers. You've built products that grow themselves.
  • Are a builder first: You'd rather ship a rough prototype today than a polished spec next week.


Bonus Points:

  • You've been a founding PM or sole PM at a high-growth startup
  • You have experience with Chrome extensions or browser-based products
  • You've built AI agents, MCPs, or workflow automations
  • You've worked on meeting/productivity/collaboration tools
  • You understand the Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams ecosystems


Why Join Tactiq

  • Equity: Stock options are part of the package. You'll have real ownership in what you're building.
  • Leverage: Small AI-enabled team = 10x the impact. You'll own core product decisions.
  • Ownership: Principal-level scope without layers of approval. Your judgment matters.
  • Timing: AI meeting intelligence is early. The category is being defined now. You'll shape it.
  • Scale: 1M users, real revenue, PLG motion working. You're not starting from zero.
  • Learning: This is where you learn to build with AI at the cutting edge. We're shipping AI-native product at startup speed
  • Modern Tooling: Linear, Mixpanel, Intercom, Miro, Notion, Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT and whatever else you need.
  • Flexibility: Remote-friendly, autonomy-first culture. We trust you to do your best work.


Our Values

  • Build what is right for the customer: We move from customer feedback to customer outcomes ASAP.
  • Ship fast but thoughtfully: We look ahead, but deliver every day. Outcomes over activity.
  • Data-driven decision making: We use rigorous analytical thinking. Data informs, intuition guides.
  • Autonomy allows us to do our best work: We work independently, collaborate in small teams, keep noise minimal.
  • Transparency, trust, empathy: We communicate clearly, share openly, and elevate each other.
  • Measured growth drives long-term success: We don't grow for growth's sake. We organize ourselves to bring out the best in our people and focus on what customers need.
