Great opportunity to join a pre-seed/seed VC-backed startup. Competitive salary package (equity)
Most product roles ask you to influence. This one hands you the keys.
A VC-backed LLM research startup — a spinout from one of the world's top universities — is hiring its first Product Lead. The founding team is a leading AI researcher and a serial entrepreneur: the science is genuinely deep, and it ships at startup pace. Their product analyses production agent workflows and gives enterprises the evidence to safely replace expensive LLM calls with cheaper ones.
They're pre-product-market-fit and moving fast. You spend three months building context with the founders, then the roadmap, scope and priorities become yours. Not input into. Yours. What you decide gets built, and it lands with real enterprise customers within weeks. Clear path to Head of Product / CPO.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Role
- Own the roadmap and be accountable for the outcomes
- Run your own customer discovery and turn it into testable hypotheses
- Drive the cadence between Product, Science and Engineering
- Prototype fast, then ship with Engineering
- Report directly to the CEO
Your Profile
MUST have:
- 2–3 years hands-on with LLM agents — APIs, evals, traces, real production failure modes
- 0→1 product experience: founding PM, early-stage lead, ex-founder, or a technical consultant who owned what got built
- Comfortable deciding on evidence without waiting for consensus
- Experience coordinating an engineering team (backend, front-end)
