About XILO

XILO, a fast-growing Vertical AI company recently backed by a Series A financing round, is seeking an ambitious and highly organized Junior Product Manager to help drive the release and continuous improvement of one of our core products. This is a 100% in-office role for someone early in their product career who wants to learn fast, grow fast, and be surrounded by a high-performing product team.


Backed by Altos Ventures ($10B AUM) and other top-tier investors, XILO is entering a rapid scale phase post-Series A. Our mission is to set the standard for product and customer experience in the insurance industry. We live by our values: Fast, Accountability, Customer-Centric, Trust, and Standing Out (FACTS), and we’re building a high-performing team that reflects them.


About the Role

As a Junior Product Manager, you will play a key role in managing the day-to-day success of one of our customer-facing products. You will work closely with the Product team to plan releases, define requirements, coordinate with Engineering, and gather direct customer feedback to guide ongoing iteration.


This role is ideal for someone early in their product career who is:

  • Hungry to grow into a PM role
  • Obsessed with customers and solving problems
  • Technical enough to understand how products are built
  • Type A, organized, and energized by structure
  • Excited to be hands-on in a fast-paced startup


You’ll gain exposure to the full product lifecycle while being mentored by experienced product leaders.


Key Responsibilities

  • Assist Product Managers in planning and executing release cycles for your product area.
  • Translate product direction into clear tasks, requirements, and deliverables for Engineering.
  • Write concise PRDs for new features and improvements.
  • Work with Design to support wireframes, workflows, and UX decisions.
  • Conduct regular customer calls to gather insights and validate new features.
  • Relay customer feedback to Product and Engineering to guide iteration.
  • Track adoption, collect feedback, and identify opportunities to refine features.
  • Ensure releases are intuitive, high-quality, and easy for customers to self-service.
  • Partner with CS and Sales on feature rollouts and understanding customer friction.
  • Keep product documentation, tickets, and statuses organized and up to date.
  • Prepare clear requirements, acceptance criteria, and release notes for sprints.
  • Communicate progress, blockers, and updates across Product, Engineering, and CS teams.


Required Qualifications

  • 1–2 years in a Product, Product Operations, CS, QA, or similarly relevant role.
  • Strong technical aptitude and the ability to learn complex systems quickly.
  • High personal organization and follow-through — you naturally keep things moving.
  • Clear communicator who enjoys talking to customers directly.
  • Strong product intuition: you can spot a confusing UX or an improvement opportunity instantly.
  • Process-oriented mindset and comfort working in fast-paced, evolving environments.
  • Ambitious and career-driven — looking for a role with significant growth potential.
  • A positive, ownership-driven attitude with a willingness to roll up your sleeves.


Nice-to-Have

  • Experience working with engineering teams in an agile environment.
  • Exposure to SaaS products, workflow tools, or data-heavy applications.
  • Interest in AI and how it transforms work.


Why Join XILO?

  • Work side-by-side with experienced Product leaders who will invest in your growth.
  • Gain exposure to AI-driven SaaS development inside a rapidly scaling Series A startup.
  • Make a direct, visible impact on product quality and customer experience.
  • Be part of a mission-driven team building transformative AI technology for the insurance industry.
  • Clear career path to Product Manager and beyond for top performers.


At XILO, we don’t stop until the job is done. If you’re highly organized, hungry to grow, and ready to build meaningful products that customers love, we’d love to meet you.
