About the role

Senior IC role overseeing Nebius/Tavily search infrastructure as a product. Owns index quality, tradeoffs among depth/latency/cost, and future direction as agents become the main consumers. Reports to Director of Product and collaborates with engineering, research, evaluation, and customer success.

Responsibilities

  • Set the quality bar and release criteria for search: what good means per use case, and what a change has to clear before it ships. Our evaluation team owns the measurement, and you work closely with them on what to measure and why.
  • Own the depth, latency, and cost tradeoffs across our search products, and make them explicit and defensible.
  • Shape the direction of our index: what it needs to cover, how fresh it needs to be, and what quality bar it has to meet.
  • Build a point of view on where search infrastructure is going as agents, rather than people, become the main consumer, and turn that into a roadmap.
  • Know how we compare to the alternatives customers evaluate, and drive the work that closes the gaps that matter.
  • Work with customer success and directly with customers to understand where our results fall short in real workflows, and turn that into quality priorities.
  • Partner with the data and vertical product owners on what our corpus needs to contain and how results should be shaped per industry.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of product management experience, with a meaningful portion spent on high-scale search or ranking systems: web search, feed ranking at a large social platform, or a large ad engine.
  • A background as an engineer, ML engineer, or researcher on a production system in one of those areas.
  • Direct experience shipping a search or ranking change end to end, including how it was evaluated and what happened after it shipped.
  • A strong data foundation: you can design an experiment, read eval results critically, and tell a real quality improvement from noise.
  • Product judgment to match the technical depth: you can decide what to build and what to leave, and defend it to both engineers and customers.
  • Strong understanding of LLMs, AI agents, and how retrieval fits into agentic workflows.
  • Comfort with ambiguity, moving between strategy and execution without losing the thread.
  • The ability to influence and align cross-functional stakeholders without formal authority.
