Role
Who you are
- 10+ years of Product Management experience, with demonstrated success building AI-driven platforms, automation systems, service workflows, or enterprise SaaS products; experience with multi-agent systems, LLM-powered workflows, or AI operations is a plus
- Strong 0→1 builder — you’ve built and scaled new products or incubations before and operate with urgency, resourcefulness, and creativity, pushing through ambiguity
- Technical systems thinker, comfortable going deep on architecture, flows, and tradeoffs with engineering, and able to reason about integrations, identity systems, workflow engines, and AI agent behavior
- Customer-centric, thriving in customer conversations and translating qualitative insights into sharp product decisions; energized by solving real operational pain
- Commercially and GTM savvy, equally comfortable in customer pitches, channel partner discussions, and pricing conversations as you are writing PRDs; skilled at positioning and selling into both mid-market and enterprise
- Communication and collaboration: exceptional communicator with crisp writing, clear storytelling, and the ability to persuade across engineering, design, sales, and executive stakeholders while bringing clarity to ambiguity
- Growth mindset and AI-first thinker, curious, adaptable, and eager to leverage emerging technologies to elevate product experiences and internal workflows
What the job involves
- The Product Management team drives Asana’s product strategy and execution, translating customer needs and opportunities into a compelling roadmap and working cross-functionally to deliver impactful solutions for team productivity and collaboration
- We’re helping to define the Work Management category and inventing new ways for teams to work more efficiently together and see the larger purpose behind their work
- Our team works directly with Engineering, Design, Experience Research, and Data Science, as well as with Sales, Support, and Marketing to ship great products
- You’ll take part in every type of product work here — from strategy to product to process improvements — conceptualizing, launching, and iterating on Asana itself for millions of teams around the world
- Asana is building its next major business line: Enterprise Service Management, powered by AI agents and tightly integrated with Asana’s Work Graph
- This is a 0→1 opportunity to define how IT, HR, and Support teams resolve work, automate workflows, and connect tickets to projects in a modern, AI-native platform
- We’re looking for a hands-on, highly entrepreneurial Lead PM who combines deep product craft with customer obsession, technical fluency, and strong go-to-market instincts
- This person will incubate a new business from scratch, partner directly with customers, and drive the product and GTM strategy required to build the next scalable product at Asana
- This role is ideal for someone who loves ambiguity, builds quickly, learns from customers, and has experience shaping AI agentic workflows, IT/service automation tools, or adjacent enterprise SaaS products
- This role is based in our San Francisco office with an office-centric hybrid schedule
- The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday
- Most Asanas have the option to work from home on Wednesdays
- Working from home on Fridays depends on the type of work you do and the teams with which you partner
- If you're interviewing for this role, your recruiter will share more about the in-office requirements
- Drive the 0→1 strategy and product vision by helping define the 3-year product strategy for Asana’s ESM business, including differentiation through AI agents, automations, and deep workflow integrations, and establishing Asana’s “right to win.”
- Partner deeply with customers by spending significant time validating pain points, co-developing workflows, and translating insights into clear MVP scope, an iterative roadmap, and measurable outcomes
- Build and launch an AI-native MVP, prioritizing a focused set of capabilities that solve real customer problems and collaborating closely with engineering, design, and UXR to build reliable, technical AI systems
- Drive cross-functional GTM by partnering with Sales, Channel, PMM, and CS on positioning, pricing, packaging, early lighthouse accounts, and working with channel partners to refine migration and onboarding experiences
- Operate with startup-level hustle and high velocity, breaking down ambiguous problems, shipping iteratively, validating quickly, learning from real usage, and staying scrappy and passionate about the 0→1 stage
