Full Job Description
About the Role

Collate is the first of its kind for what we're building - no incumbent doing this today, and no established workflow to copy. That's the job: continue to define the roadmap for an AI category that doesn't exist yet, then build it.

You'll co-own the product surface end to end that lets the world's most regulated companies trust us with their most sensitive documents. You'll sit at the intersection of engineering and go-to-market, working directly with Surbhi (CEO) to turn what customers need into a roadmap the team can actually ship.

This is a rare seat: you're not maintaining an AI category, you're creating a new one. It's a role for someone who wants outsized ownership over how an early-stage company becomes the category leader without slowing down.

We are 5 days a week onsite in San Francisco.

What You'll Do

  • Define and drive the AI product strategy for Collate's capabilities for organizations operating under real regulatory pressure
  • Run point on the technical requirements and translate them into a roadmap engineering can build against
  • Work directly with regulatory and clinical teams at customer organizations to understand their workflows and compliance requirements at a granular level
  • Partner daily with engineering and design to scope, prioritize, and ship - this is a hands-on, in-the-weeds role
  • Define the metrics that matter for enterprise adoption, retention, and expansion, and use them to drive prioritization
  • Be the connective tissue between GTM, Sales, and Customer Success so the roadmap reflects what's actually closing and renewing deals
  • Represent the customer's voice in every cross-functional room you're in


What We're Looking For

  • 7+ years of product management experience with a track record of shipping software
  • A builder's instinct - you'd rather be in the weeds with engineering than reviewing a roadmap deck
  • High agency and comfort with ambiguity; you can walk into a fast-moving, lightly-processed environment and bring structure without slowing anyone down
  • Genuine comfort working directly with founders and designers on 0-to-1 problems - you're energized by ambiguity, not looking for it to be resolved before you start and your communication style is clear and direct.
  • Strong plus: experience in life sciences, healthtech, or another regulated industry and real familiarity with regulatory, clinical, or pharma workflows


Why Join Collate?
  • Impact: Build systems and experiences that touch real patients and providers, improving healthcare outcomes.
  • Ownership: Shape both our product experience and our engineering culture from the start.
  • Learning: Collaborate with a uniquely interdisciplinary team-AI researchers, healthcare leaders, and experienced startup builders.
  • Upside: Join a company early enough to have meaningful equity and career-defining impact


The base salary range for this role is competitive, depending on experience and level (Tier 1, San Francisco)
