Product Manager

Technical Product Manager - Deccan AI

About Deccan AI Deccan AI builds enterprise AI systems that put accuracy at the center of intelligence. We work at the intersection of applied ML, data infrastructure, and product, helping organizations move from pilots to production grade AI. We're looking for a Technical Product Manager to help shape what we build next. We recently raised $25M in Series A funding and are entering a rapid growth phase. Our India office is based in Hyderabad. We’re not just participating in the AI race we’re building the infrastructure that powers it. With 1M+ global experts, advanced automation, and vertically integrated platforms, we deliver the gold-standard data that world-class AI models rely on. The AI data infrastructure market is expected to grow exponentially over the next decade, and Deccan AI is positioned to become a defining company in this space.

The Role We're hiring a Technical Product Manager to own the roadmap for one or more core product lines, working closely with engineering, applied ML, design, and go to market teams. This is a hands on role for someone comfortable reading a system design doc, writing a PRD, and sitting in on a customer call in the same afternoon.

What You'll Do

• Own the end to end product lifecycle: discovery, requirements, prioritization, launch, and iteration
• Partner with engineering and applied ML teams to scope technical feasibility, tradeoffs, and architecture level decisions
• Translate customer and market signals into a prioritized roadmap backed by clear success metrics
• Write precise specs, PRDs, and API/data contracts engineering can build against
• Define evaluation criteria for model driven features (accuracy, latency, cost, safety tradeoffs) with data science/ML teams
• Run structured customer discovery and feedback loops with enterprise clients
• Define and track product metrics (adoption, retention, performance)
• Collaborate with design on user flows and GTM/sales on positioning and launch readiness
• Communicate roadmap, tradeoffs, and status to technical and non-technical stakeholders

What We're Looking For

• 4+ years of product management experience, including 2+ years on technical, platform, or infrastructure products (AI/ML, data platforms, developer tools, etc.)
• Ability to work fluently with engineering: reading architecture diagrams, understanding API design, reasoning about system constraints
• Track record of shipping products 0 to 1 or scaling existing ones with measurable outcomes
• Strong written communication, able to turn ambiguity into a crisp spec
• Comfort with data: defining metrics, reading dashboards, using data to drive prioritization
• Experience working with enterprise customers
• Bachelor's degree in CS, Engineering, or related technical field (or equivalent experience)

Nice to Have

• Prior experience in applied ML/AI products: LLMs, evaluation pipelines, data annotation/labeling, or MLOps
• Background as a software engineer, data scientist, or solutions architect
• Startup experience with fast evolving priorities
• Familiarity with enterprise sales cycles

Why Deccan AI

• Work on products at the center of enterprise AI adoption
• High ownership: shape the roadmap, not just execute it
• Small, senior team working directly with founders and engineering leadership
• Competitive compensation plus meaningful equity
