About the role

Senior Product Manager to lead search initiatives from concept to launch within Microsoft Copilot and related apps. Own strategy, requirements, roadmaps, cross-team coordination, and measurement of AI-powered search experiences with a focus on quality, security, privacy, and responsible AI.

Responsibilities

  • Turn strategy into shipped experiences. Translate team priorities into clear requirements, user stories and success criteria. Take features from concept through private preview, public preview and general availability.
  • Own the roadmap. Drive the roadmap for your areas across organizational boundaries. Prioritize the backlog, align with engineering on tradeoffs, identify dependencies, and resolve difficult tradeoffs with peers to keep work moving.
  • Manage complex dependencies. Coordinate across feature teams, platform teams and partners. Spot risks early, remove blockers, and make sure work fits together across the technology stack.
  • Hold a high bar for quality. Define release criteria and lead scenario walkthroughs to find problems and system friction before customers do. Make sure experiences meet standards for quality, security, privacy and responsible AI.
  • Define and measure success. Set success metrics for AI-powered search (e.g., relevance and precision/recall) alongside engagement and satisfaction measures. Ensure telemetry is in place before launch.
  • Experiment and iterate. Use APIs, infrastructure and AI models to form hypotheses, run experiments and A/B tests, and drive measurable improvements after launch.
  • Close the loop with customers. Use feedback, telemetry and direct engagement to understand how releases land and drive next improvements.
  • Build team habits. Set up and run planning, status, review and release processes to keep teams aligned and moving quickly.
  • Work AI-first. Use AI tools, agents and automated workflows to speed up specs, prototyping, analysis and status tracking, combining AI output with human judgment.
  • Lead through influence. Bring partners around shared goals without direct authority.
  • Communicate with clarity. Share progress, risks, tradeoffs and results with stakeholders at every level.
  • Raise the bar for the team. Coach and mentor peers and foster an inclusive, collaborative culture.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's Degree AND 5+ years experience in product/service/program management or software development OR equivalent experience.
  • 3+ years of experience working training/evaluating search/information retrieval systems as Product Manager, Software Developer, or Data Scientist (preferred)
