Traba is building an AI operating layer for the industrial supply chain, starting with contingent labor in manufacturing and logistics. The company has embedded itself deeply in customer operations and now is expanding into broader operational workflows. Backed by Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, and General Catalyst, Traba is launching an agentic platform that synthesizes marketplace data and operates autonomously within supply chain workflows.
You will join as a founding member of the Agents team, reporting directly to the VP of Product. This is a true 0-to-1 product role at the frontier of applied AI. You'll embed deeply in customer operations to design and ship production agents that understand context, reason through ambiguity, make decisions, and execute work autonomously. You will work directly with founders, product engineers, ML teams, and early design partners to define workflows and shape product strategy while the underlying model ecosystem evolves.
Key responsibilities include: architecting and stewarding product strategy for the AI agent platform; solving complex customer problems by balancing user needs, technical constraints, and evolving AI capabilities; writing detailed product requirements and partnering deeply with product engineers and ML teams; rapidly validating and prototyping ideas alongside customers; designing agent systems that reason through workflows, orchestrate tools, maintain context, and execute meaningful work; defining product behavior, evaluation systems, and quality frameworks; using data to uncover patterns and answer key questions; evolving the AI product portfolio with deep understanding of model capabilities; visualizing and communicating complex concepts; and socializing work across all levels while synthesizing stakeholder feedback.
This role requires someone who has launched customer-facing AI products where systems took meaningful autonomous actions—not just AI features, copilots, or chat interfaces. You must be a 0-to-1 operator comfortable building products from scratch with real customers, finding product-market fit, and iterating toward signals. You thrive in environments where models evolve constantly and assumptions break regularly. You are a first-principles thinker who understands systems and constraints deeply. You believe in building shoulder-to-shoulder with customers, embedding in their workflows, and shipping based on direct feedback. You have strong technical depth, can operate as a peer with ML engineers, understand evaluations, reason through system tradeoffs, and participate deeply in technical conversations. You are inventive, scrappy, move quickly, embrace ambiguity, and work seamlessly across engineering, ML, operations, design, leadership, and customers.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 7–10 years of experience as a Product Manager
- Evidence of launching products from scratch and driving meaningful customer outcomes
- Experience building AI-native products or customer-facing agent systems
- Strong technical abilities with the ability to work deeply with engineering and ML teams
- Ability to read evaluations, reason through system performance, and prototype ideas
- Experience operating in highly ambiguous startup environments with fast iteration cycles
- Deep familiarity with AI tools and hands-on experience building with modern AI systems
- Desire to work at a startup and cover an exceptionally wide surface area
- Strong work ethic and desire to build a category-defining company
