Role
Who you are
- 7+ years of product management experience, including several years of staff-level ownership of a technically complex product area
- A solid track record of shipping customer-facing products from discovery through launch and iteration. Strong UX understanding and appreciation is essential
- Experience with enterprise SaaS, workflow products, approvals, task management, collaboration systems, or other products where state, permissions, and routing matter
- Real world experience with LLM-based systems and AI-assisted workflow experiences
- Fluency with APIs, data models, event-driven systems, workflow engines, and platform dependencies
- Strong quantitative judgment and experience defining metrics, instrumentation, and feedback loops to evaluate product quality and business impact
- Excellent customer empathy, written communication, and ability to make complex ideas clear to diverse audiences
- Demonstrated ability to lead through influence across Engineering, Design, Data, AI, GTM, and executive stakeholders
- Comfort operating in ambiguity, making principled tradeoffs, and maintaining momentum across a broad and evolving product surface area
What the job involves
- We are looking for a Sr. Staff Product Manager to help lead this critical product area. You will own strategy and execution across some of Ironclad’s most consequential workflow problems: making approval state reliable, helping users understand who needs to do what and when, reducing unnecessary administrative work, and enabling business users to work autonomously within appropriate guardrails
- This is a high-impact role for a product leader who can move comfortably between customer discovery, product strategy, detailed requirements, technical architecture, and cross-functional execution. You will partner closely with Engineering, Design, Data, AI, Legal experts, Customer Success, Sales, and executive stakeholders
- Own the strategy and the quality. Create the product strategy, roadmap, and success metrics for major Workflow Efficiency initiatives
- Evolve workflow capabilities. Lead the evolution of workflow roles, tasks, assignments, and approval state into a reliable foundation for customer-facing functionality, reporting, and AI-powered experiences
- Expand AI functionality. Design and build AI agents to streamline workflow execution and reduce the need for human approvals and reviews
- Build and ideate on front-end user experiences. Enable Ironclad users to efficiently track the work they need to complete throughout the contracting lifecycle. Define experiences that help users understand dependencies, track internal turns, and identify what is blocking a contract from moving forward
- Focus on data quality. Make workflow activity and intelligence more actionable by surfacing the context users need to take the next step without leaving their flow of work. Improve approval data accuracy and explainability so customers can trust approval history, cycle-time metrics, and the status of work in flight
- Lead through influence. Make consequential technical calls and align engineering, design, data, executives, and partners around clear decisions and accountable execution
Our take
Business contracting is often inefficient and messy, with approvals required from various stakeholders and many processes still paper-based. Ironclad is a platform that digitises, automates, and streamlines contract workflows, allowing legal teams to focus on legal work rather than paperwork. Its platform features collaborative tools that facilitate business operations and extract and catalogue contract metadata, making information easier to access and act upon. Its enterprise customers include Dropbox, Mastercard, Pixar, Fox, and L’Oréal.
Despite its success, Ironclad faces competition in the $3.68 billion contract lifecycle management industry from major players like DocuSign and emerging ones like Contractbook. The company recently announced Ironclad Signature, marking its entry into the $13 billion eSignature market. The new feature speeds up the signature process by an estimated 80% and provides summaries and approval histories to users. This new tool is expected to strengthen Ironclad's position in the sell-side contract lifecycle management market.
Additionally, Ironclad introduced value-based pricing, charging only for completed, signed agreements, unlike other providers who charge for every signature packet sent out. Ironclad, backed by investors like Accel, Sequoia, Y Combinator, and BOND, remains committed to innovating and maintaining its leadership in the contract lifecycle management space.
