Role Description:
As a Senior AI Product Builder at ShipBob, you own the full build loop for your product domain: discovery, story/specs, AI-augmented prototypes, and production-ready PRs. This is not the traditional PM role — you are a builder. You use the AI development toolchain (e.g., Claude Code, Driver.ai) to understand ShipBob's codebase architecture, generate working code against the actual repo, and ship to production with minimum engineering rework. The minimum technical floor for this role is real: you must read ShipBob's data model, evaluate AI-generated scaffolding for correctness, and write story/specs precise enough that AI tools can act on them without follow-up questions.
You will be part of the Sortation Technology team. We build the products behind every point where ShipBob physically sorts inventory:
As volume grows across time-sensitive marketplace and B2B channels, sortation has become a direct lever on merchant outcomes: on-time shipping, marketplace and retailer compliance, inventory accuracy, and the tracking experience end-consumers see. Sortation sits at the intersection of physical operations and digital systems, where small execution gaps compound into merchant-visible failures — making this one of the highest-leverage product surfaces at ShipBob. This PM owns the products that determine whether units move to the right place, at the right time, and whether what we tell merchants matches what's happening on the floor.
This role is for someone energized by speed, uncomfortable with waste, and who measures success by outcomes shipped — not documents approved. You operate in an AI-native pod alongside an AI Engineer, AI/Prompt Engineer, and Designer. This role reports to a Director, AI Product Builder.
What you'll do:
You'll apply this builder model to one of ShipBob's most operationally critical product surfaces – Sortation Technology.
What you'll bring to the table:
Nice to have:
ShipBob believes in transparency while providing a competitive total compensation package with a pay for performance approach. The full base pay range for this position in our compensation architecture is $151,080 – $251,800. In addition to base salary, this role includes the opportunity to be eligible for participation in the Company's discretionary bonus plan based on Company's plans and in accordance with Company’s policies.
Perks & Benefits:
We recognize that people come with a wealth of experience and talent beyond just the technical requirements of a job. If your experience is close to what you see listed here, please still consider applying. Diversity of experience and skills combined with passion is a key to innovation and excellence; therefore, we encourage people from all backgrounds to apply to our positions.
About You:
Building the world’s leading full-stack fulfillment platform is challenging work. The problems we solve are complex, the pace is fast, and the bar is high. That means ShipBob’s environment isn’t the right fit for everyone, and that’s okay. If you are ready to take ownership, push boundaries, and grow alongside a team that genuinely supports each other, we would love to hear from you.
