Toast is driven by building the restaurant platform that helps restaurants adapt, take control, and get back to what they do best: building the businesses they love.

Toast’s Technical Product Team is looking for a Product Manager who is passionate about AI and the opportunities it offers.  AI is a key competitive differentiator for Toast, and has been enabled by our AI/ML Platform.  As an AI Product Manager you will deeply understand how to apply AI effectively to our core internal operations, seed successful customer experimentations, and force multiply across Toast with reusable AI-Assets.

You will partner closely with Product Managers, Engineering, Data Science, Customer Support, and GTM to help realize Toast’s overall vision for AI. You will research and advocate for innovative applications of both “Generative” and “Traditional” AI, while also understanding industry trends and best practices.  This is a high visibility role with weekly interest from our c-suite and senior leadership teams.  You will have the opportunity to make a real impact at a fast-paced and dynamic organization.

About this roll* (Responsibilities) 

• Convey your vision through well researched product roadmaps, working closely with product leaders and engineers, and participate in all levels of team planning.
• Plan a technical & feature roadmap for internal operations, including meeting the needs of increased functionality and improved experience, keeping in mind reusability, scale, and growth.
• Work cross-functionally and cross-team to understand needs, challenges and workflows.
• Work with engineering to plan sprints, write user stories, and test product features, and manage releases of product features.
• Prepare executive-level presentations on your product strategy, roadmap, execution, and launch plans.
• Keep your product ‘north star’ firmly at the forefront of your team’s vision.

• 4+ years of PM experience working on highly visible initiatives, collaborating with cross-functional teams to ship great products.

• Demonstrated experience taking team strategy into account when making roadmap decisions and effectively communicating those strategic ties to both technical team members and c-suite executives.
• A proven track record of solving amorphous problems, listening to and organizing large amounts of information into a coherent plan forward, and handling difficult prioritizations.
• You facilitate critical conversations with ease; you have no trouble working with and juggling the (at times) competing priorities of multiple teams operating in different countries.
• You build and cultivate healthy relationships with partners and keep teammates informed and engaged. You customize your communication style based on your audience and easily switch between verbal and written communication as needed.

Special sauce* (nice to haves):
