Job Description

We’re building a first-of-its-kind Content Marketplace that connects AI builders (LLMs, copilots, chatbots, enterprise AI apps) with high-quality content and data sources in real time. The marketplace enables LLMs to ground their responses in fresh, authoritative, and diverse content while ensuring publishers and creators are fairly rewarded. We’re looking for a Principal Product Manager to own and represent the needs of our AI consumers — from large model providers to independent builders. You will define how AI systems access, value, and pay for grounding content, and ensure that marketplace pricing, policies, and performance are shaped by measurable demand-side outcomes. This role sits at the intersection of product, economics, and experimentation - ideal for a PM who enjoys building 0 to 1, is a self-starter and thrives in ambiguity.

Job Responsibility

  • Represent AI builder needs
  • Act as the voice of AI builders in marketplace design - ensure the platform supports a wide range of grounding use cases (chatbots, copilots, enterprise bots, search models, etc.)
  • Collaborate closely with Business Development (BD) and partnership teams during demand-side negotiations to translate customer requirements into product and pricing features
  • Define and evolve access tiers, usage models, and APIs that meet enterprise and model-builder needs for quality, latency, and transparency
  • Define Grounding Value metrics
  • Work with data science and applied research teams to define quantitative measures of grounding quality (e.g., accuracy uplift, hallucination reduction, factual recall, response satisfaction)
  • Partner with supply PMs to translate these into value signals that inform payout to content providers
  • Design and Lead Experiments
  • Drive the experiment roadmap for understanding grounding & content value, partnering with engineering and applied science teams to progress on the road to true price discovery over time

Requirements

  • Bachelor's Degree AND 10+ years experience in product/service/program management or software development OR equivalent experience
  • 8+ years of product management experience in marketplaces, data or AI platforms or B2B SaaS
  • Deep familiarity with LLM grounding, RAG systems, or data retrieval APIs
  • Solid analytical and experimental mindset — experience running A/B or cluster experiments, defining metrics, and interpreting results
  • Background in economics, data science, or applied experimentation (e.g., causal inference, pricing models, or marketplace dynamics)
  • Ability to collaborate across engineering, BD, and research functions
  • Excellent communication — able to translate technical and economic concepts into executive language

Nice to have

  • Bachelor's Degree AND 15+ years experience in product/service/program management or software development OR equivalent experience
  • Drive industry partnerships, advocate for publisher interests, define common interoperability standards, and work with forums and alliances to make AI content usage scalable and sustainable

  • Customer-Hosted Web SDK (0→1): Customers want their authentication experience to feel like theirs — on their domain, in their design language, with no redirects. Today that level of control requires building from scratch. Define and deliver the SDK that gives customers complete UX ownership while we handle the security and scale underneath.
  • Modern Web Authentication Patterns: Own the SDK strategy for single-page applications and server-rendered web apps. Define how authentication state, client security models, and browser-based authentication work across modern web frameworks (React, Angular, Next.js, ASP.NET Core).
  • Unified Sign-In SDK for First-Party Apps: Own the SDK that enables Microsoft's internal app teams to adopt a consistent, unified sign-in experience across web, mobile, desktop, and browser. Provide integration guidance and adoption playbooks that unblock first-party adoption at scale.
  • Developer Onboarding & Golden Paths: Design the SDK-level onramp for customers adopting Entra External ID for the first time — whether starting greenfield or migrating from another provider. Create quickstarts and reference architectures that minimize time-to-first-sign-in.
  • Cross-Platform SDK Architecture & Tooling: Drive consistency across web, mobile, and server-side SDKs — shared error models, token lifecycle, telemetry, versioning, CLI tooling, IDE integration, and AI-assisted diagnostics. Ensure the SDK family feels like one product.
  • Workforce Identity SDK Innovation: Extend SDK thinking into enterprise scenarios — ISV multi-tenant integration, B2B collaboration patterns, Conditional Access-aware SDKs, and API protection patterns for Entra ID.
