AI Product Manager


( is supporting Granter our client to find an amazing AI Product Manager in Lisbon)

Granter is building an AI agent that handles grants end-to-end. The AI Grant Consultant helps companies discover funding opportunities draft stronger proposals faster and manage funded projects after approval.

Our mission is to enable businesses of all sizes to leverage incentives to grow and innovate. We are deeply involved in the Portuguese startup ecosystem and were the winners of the Web Summit Pitch Competition 2025.

We are now looking for an AI Product Manager who will take ownership of product and work closely with engineering operations and leadership to turn complex ideas user needs and technical capabilities into clear product decisions.

Unlike a traditional PM role an AI PM works with AI systems that behave probabilistically and improve through iteration.

This means understanding how models are evaluated and working closer with engineers on data and experiments. Prior AI product experience is not required but you must be able to ramp up quickly. Most importantly we are looking for someone who genuinely loves a challenge and operates at an A-player level.

What This Role Involves

• You sit at the center of product decisions. Your job is to turn ideas user needs and technical possibilities into clear product decisions and real features.

• Sometimes this means writing requirements. Sometimes designing flows. Sometimes validating hypotheses with real users. If something needs to happen to move the product forward you make it happen.

• Work closely with engineers to build features at the edge of what current AI systems can realistically do. For that you must have some understanding of how AI systems work at a technical level not only from a UX perspective.

• Constantly validate ideas. Run experiments review product evaluate AI and talk with users to make sure we are building the right things. Maintain a strong validation mindset. Test assumptions early and iterate quickly.

• Define product requirements features and user flows based on data user insights and technical constraints.

• Coordinate product priorities and roadmap decisions with stakeholders.

• Keep the team aligned and moving quickly. We are a startup. Everyone contributes ideas and everyone is a stakeholder but you sit at the center of product decisions.
