kernel - Technical Product Manager

• We are looking for a highly technical, full-stack product thinker who can own and lead product work from discovery to implementation. • Scar tissue: 6+ years of Product Management experience, where you’ve learnt the hard way what works and what doesn’t, and built complex products and features along the way • Evals: Comfortable with evals for agents and driving quality improvements via evals and recursive self-improvement • Technical IQ: Comfortable with API, data pipelines, SQL, and so on. Even (and especially) when Claude Code is down. • Extreme ownership: You own your area, cradle-to-grave; this is not a relay race where you only do one part and then hand off the next bit of product work to someone else • Clever use of AI: You’re an aggressive and proficient user of AI, but you never switch off the local LLM that you were born with :) • ⚠️ THIS ROLE MAY NOT BE FOR YOU IF YOU • Want to work remotely. This role is in our London office at least four days a week; most of the team does five. • Don't enjoy the pace and intensity of an early-stage startup • Have side projects or want to manage a team immediately • Need perfect clarity before starting. • Prefer long cycles and big “reveals.”
