About the VP Product (AI) Role...
Build the future of agentic hotel commerce. Imagine a hotelier setting a goal, working with intelligent agents to turn it into action, and staying confidently in control. As VP Product, AI, you will shape how that future looks, feels and works, bringing the clarity and care of the best consumer grade products to complex hotel workflows.
We are looking for a proven product leader who can turn ambitious concepts into tangible prototypes and beautifully resolved experiences that earn trust with every interaction, gain rapid customer adoption and scale the economics behind it. If you are passionate about building a whole new way for hoteliers to work with AI agents, get in touch.
SiteMinder helps hoteliers attract, reach and convert guests online. We are building nimble, highly capable AI powered product teams that own customer value, adoption and commercial outcomes from discovery through operation.
Our product philosophy is Powerfully simple. We expand the depth and breadth of what our products can do while keeping them intuitive and easy to use. Every new capability should help hoteliers achieve more without adding unnecessary complexity to their work.
You will have a dedicated team and engineering capacity from day one, with direct access to customers to turn prototypes into products.
You own investment decisions and commercial outcomes for the AI product portfolio, including product economics and returns. You have autonomy to set the product roadmap, prioritise the strongest opportunities and decide what to scale, change or stop.
Help turn intelligent agents into products that hoteliers choose to use every day. This is an opportunity to shape how an industry sets goals, makes decisions and gets work done, while building a business around real customer value. You will personally prototype the possibilities, lead the strongest ideas into production with your team and deliver agentic commerce experiences that earn sustained adoption.
Own the strategy, product direction and delivery of SiteMinder’s agentic commerce experience, from discovery and prototyping through launch and ongoing operation.
Set priorities for valuable hotelier goals and workflows; define how agents recommend, explain, seek permission, act and recover, with meaningful customer control.
Personally build and test prototypes, then lead the strongest ideas into production.
Recruit and coach small, highly capable, entrepreneurial teams.
Partner with Engineering on evaluation, reliability, latency, operating cost and delivery, and with the Head of Design on experience direction and quality.
Make scale, change or stop decisions using successful customer outcomes, sustained use, reliability and contribution after serving and support costs.
Partner with the Head of Growth on onboarding, adoption, monetisation and expansion.
You are a leader and hands-on builder. You personally use AI to turn ideas into working prototypes, experiments or usable product artefacts. You learn by making, challenge established ways of working and help reinvent what excellent product work looks like with AI. Be ready to show what you built yourself, what changed as a result and how you checked the quality of AI-assisted work.
You have personally launched and scaled a customer-facing generative AI product, with evidence of sustained usage and business impact.
You can build prototypes with AI tools and explain the product and technical choices behind them, including evaluation, tool use, reliability and unit economics.
You have influenced senior stakeholders and developed capable teams while remaining close to customers, data and the product.
Agentic workflows, B2B SaaS, PLG and international markets are valuable. Hospitality experience is beneficial but not required.
