        Product Manager — AI Vendor Tools

        Quantitative Strategies / Technology
        New York

        The D. E. Shaw group seeks an experienced product manager to join its Application Engineering team. This group develops and maintains a range of internal software solutions, including developer tools, infrastructure libraries, and web applications used throughout the firm, and integrates both proprietary and third-party technologies. This role offers the chance to lead product ownership for a growing portfolio of AI vendor tools—such as Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, and Gemini—working closely with groups across Systems and the broader firm in a collaborative environment.

        What you’ll do day-to-day

        • Manage some of the firm’s largest AI vendor products and related integration efforts, liaising between stakeholders across the firm to drive project strategy and roadmaps. 
        • Evaluate product capabilities, gather and synthesize business needs and feedback, set priorities, define requirements, and coordinate execution across technical and non-technical teams.
        • Lead efforts to integrate external vendor solutions into the firm’s environment, ensuring seamless and effective adoption.
        • Prototype lightweight solutions, such as dashboards or other tools, to help evaluate product capabilities, communicate opportunities, and accelerate decision-making.
        • Help build out and manage a small team responsible for maintaining and supporting these vendor tools, including more technical individual contributors.

        Who we’re looking for

        • At least five years of product management experience, including prior ownership of products, roadmaps, prioritization, and stakeholder communication in ambiguous environments.
        • A proficient technological foundation—including basic knowledge of core computer science concepts and familiarity with a large variety of technologies—and experience with human-centered design, data analytics, or application infrastructure.
        • Curiosity about technology, the initiative to spearhead improvements, and a knack for solving open-ended problems and seeing how small details interrelate to impact the bigger picture.
        • Demonstrated interest in AI, experience managing vendor products, and the ability to ramp quickly, operate independently, and move work forward with limited structure.
        • Excellent interpersonal, communication, and organizational skills, along with a client-service mindset and the ability to build successful relationships within the department and across the firm.
        • The expected annual base salary for this position is $200,000 to $275,000. Our compensation and benefits package includes variable compensation in the form of a year-end bonus, guaranteed in the first year of hire, and benefits including medical and prescription drug coverage, 401(k) contribution matching, wellness reimbursement, family building benefits, and a charitable gift match program.
