What the job involves
- We are looking for a VP of Product Management to lead AI product strategy at Smartsheet. You will lead a product team responsible for defining our comprehensive AI vision and roadmap, ensuring we build a cohesive, coordinated approach to how AI transforms our product. Your team will establish the strategic direction for specialized AI agents, evaluation infrastructure, and AI-powered capabilities, from platform foundations through to customer-facing features
- You will report to our Chief Product and Technology Officer located in our Bellevue, WA office, or you may work remotely from anywhere in the US where Smartsheet is a registered employer
- Lead a high-performing product team focused on defining and executing Smartsheet's comprehensive Applied AI product strategy
- Define the strategic roadmap for AI product initiatives — from conversational experiences, MCP, automations, specialized agents, and evaluation infrastructure through to AI-powered features in customer-facing products — ensuring a cohesive, coordinated vision
- Own the business outcomes of the AI portfolio — define the success metrics (adoption, retention, expansion, and revenue impact), set the targets, and hold the team accountable to them
- Instrument, measure, and iterate: build the data and evaluation foundation that tells us whether AI features are actually working, and use it to make hard prioritization calls — including what to sunset
- Move fast in a fast-moving space — ship, learn, and adjust in short cycles rather than waiting for perfect information
- Lead cross-functional alignment with Product Marketing, Pricing and Packaging, and Sales to shape the Go To Market strategy that positions Smartsheet's AI advantages and educates the market
- Partner with Customer Excellence and Sales leadership to ensure your AI product strategy addresses customer needs around AI implementation, responsible AI governance, and AI-powered automation
- Work with design leadership to establish a vision for compelling, intuitive AI experiences that are accessible and trustworthy across all customer segments
- Stay informed of AI market trends, competitive innovations, and emerging use cases to inform your strategic recommendations and keep Smartsheet at the forefront of AI-driven work management
- Build and develop a world-class product management team, establishing clear goals around AI strategy execution and product impact
Our take
With teams increasingly moving to remote work across many industries, companies have been reaching for tools to keep operations smooth and communications open. Founded in 2005, Smartsheet is a cloud-based work management platform helping a vast range of companies, from small businesses to large enterprises, plan, track, and report on work.
Like other team collaboration software companies, such as Lucid and Atlassian, Smartsheet saw strong growth in the early 2020s and achieved 17% year-on-year revenue increases through 2025. If the company can maintain this success, it stands to make real gains in a global team collaboration market expected to be worth about $20 billion by 2028.
Smartsheet has embedded itself across various industries, with deep integrations with applications from the likes of Salesforce, Atlassian, Google, and Microsoft, making it the first work management sector Unicorn to reach $1 billion in recurring annual revenue in 2024. Thanks to its successes, it was bought by Blackstone and Vista Equity Partners for $8.4 billion in 2025 with an eye on further international scaling, leveraging the reach of its new parent companies.
