Staff Product Manager, Engineering & Construction

The role

You will own the product strategy, roadmap, and execution for the MarianaEngineer and MarianaSuper components of CapitalProjectOS. This involves translating engineering and construction workflows into software requirements and embedding with field teams to build AI-powered tooling.

What you will do

• Own the product vision, roadmap, and prioritization for MarianaEngineer and MarianaSuper.
• Translate capital project engineering and construction workflows into software requirements.
• Embed with engineering and field teams to understand design and construction workflows.
• Write requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, and business rules.
• Build and test prototypes.
• Build a structured user engagement model for feedback, testing, and adoption.
• Develop rollout plans, training materials, and adoption metrics.
• Define and track success metrics like modeling turnaround time and plan-versus-actual accuracy.
• Participate in sprint planning, backlog grooming, and retrospectives.
• Help build the PM function at an AI company.

Required qualifications

• 5+ years of experience in capital project engineering (process, mechanical, or EPC design) and/or construction or field execution (superintendent, construction management, project controls).
• Strong understanding of the capital project lifecycle including design basis, engineering deliverables, procurement handoff, construction execution, and commissioning.
• Ability to go deep on engineering and construction workflows and earn credibility with domain experts.
• Strong product judgment: ruthless prioritization, focus on highest-leverage work, resistance to building everything at once.
• Ability to translate complex operational workflows into clear requirements, priorities, and product decisions.
• Ability to lead cross-functional teams through ambiguous, complex projects with competing stakeholder priorities.
• Genuine interest in AI-powered tooling.
• Strong communication skills across a wide range of organizational contexts.

Nice to have

• Direct experience with engineering software (P&ID, 3D/plant design, datasheet or equipment-sizing tools) or construction management software (scheduling, QA/QC, reality capture, command-center platfor
• Experience shipping AI-powered enterprise tools: agentic engineering workflows, document intelligence, or process co-pilots.
• Track record of digital transformation in capital-intensive industries — mining, energy, construction, or manufacturing.
• Prior product management experience, or genuine excitement to move into product management from an engineering or construction background.
• AI-forward projects outside of work.
