Flint is a self-improving system for performance marketing that connects to brands' ad accounts and autonomously optimizes them by creating landing pages and running continuous learning loops to improve conversions. The company is backed by Accel, Sheryl Sandberg's SBVP, and Neo, and has already achieved significant results with Fortune 10 customers (50% CAC reduction within 48 hours of deployment). As a Forward Deployed Product Manager, you will be the primary point of contact for 20-30 customer accounts throughout their lifecycle, from kickoff through renewal. You own the customer outcome and drive strategy across teams that don't report to you. Your responsibilities include: owning customer accounts and serving as their main contact; running pilots from setup through readout, including tracking, success metrics, and scheduling; building account plans covering goals, testing roadmaps, and success criteria; working hands-on in accounts to review landing pages, keywords, and ads before deployment; designing and interpreting experiments, then translating results into clear narratives for marketing teams and executives; leading check-ins, readouts, and escalations while keeping accounts on schedule; collaborating with product, engineering, and sales to maintain account momentum; and identifying customer pain points to inform product improvements and engagement playbooks. You will report to the Chief Revenue Officer and work closely with the CEO, Sales, Product, Marketing, and Engineering teams. The role emphasizes high throughput, hands-on execution, and the ability to manage multiple complex workstreams simultaneously without slipping deadlines. You'll see test results in days rather than quarters, and there is direct alignment between customer needs and product development. REQUIREMENTS: - Sharp communicator in writing and verbally; comfortable briefing executives, delivering difficult news, and securing decisions from customer meetings - Proven ability to manage 20+ projects or workstreams simultaneously without dropping items; customers should know status without asking - High throughput mindset: prefer doing the work over describing it; comfortable using AI tools and agents to scale your impact - Demonstrated experience owning outcomes with customers, whether as a PM (growth, platform, agent, or forward deployed), consultant, engagement manager, or founder - Strong analytical skills: ability to move from messy data to clear recommendations - Based in San Francisco or willing to relocate NICE TO HAVE: - Fluency in growth metrics (CAC, ROAS, conversion); experience with acquisition, landing pages, experiments, or ads - Landing page testing or conversion rate optimization background - Experience building or using AI workflows or tools - Startup or founding experience
