Coursera brings trusted content and credentials from leading university and industry partners, while Udemy brings a dynamic skills marketplace and global network of real-world experts. By combining these strengths, we can connect more people and organizations to the skills they need, when they need them.
Shape what comes next
By joining our team, you’ll have the opportunity to reshape how the world learns and applies skills—and help millions of people participate in the new economy. Bring your ideas, expertise, and perspective to meaningful work that can make a difference at global scale.
You'll own the product vision and roadmap for a core agentic AI capability that sits at the heart of a new,
visionary AI-first product line. This role shapes how the system reasons, generates, and acts on behalf of
users, and you'll set the standard for what great AI-driven product experiences look like as the company
scales this capability. You'll report to the Product Director for Growth and Experience, working on
a foundational, high-visibility initiative that will influence how AI-first products get built across
the organization.
About your skills:
AI Product Strategy
Critical for designing AI-driven agentic systems and defining product vision for frontier AI capabilities.
AI Fluency
Necessary to understand AI capabilities, limitations, and appropriate applications in agentic
reasoning systems.
Product Requirements
Critical for translating ambiguous frontier problems into clear specifications where right answers
are undefined.
What you'll be doing:
Own the product vision and roadmap for a core agentic AI capability, from early concept through
scaled delivery.
Define how the system reasons and generates outcomes, including the underlying logic, taxonomy, and
decision models.
Translate ambiguous, frontier-style problems into clear product requirements where the right answer
isn't yet known.
Partner closely with data science and ML teams to ground product decisions in real model behavior
and signal.
Set the bar for what good looks like in an AI-first, agentic product, not a traditional workflow one.
Represent this capability's vision and progress to senior stakeholders.
Qualifications:
Experience designing agentic, AI-driven product systems, not just conventional workflow products.
Background in data and ML fluency, with demonstrated ability to work directly with data science on
reasoning and inference design.
Experience writing product requirements for systems with undefined or emergent behavior, where the
spec isn't fixed upfront.
Demonstrated history of sound judgment on taxonomy, ontology, and knowledge structure design.
Experience with requirements elicitation, able to pull real requirements out of ambiguous, fast-moving
problem spaces.
8+ years of product management experience, with demonstrated staff-level scope and impact.
