Job Description
VP of Product
About Product School:
Product School is the global leader in product training, with a thriving community of over two million professionals. We offer live, online certifications taught by Product Leaders from top Silicon Valley companies like Google, Meta, Netflix, and Amazon.
In addition to certifications, we host ProductCon, the world’s largest product management conference, and produce The Product Podcast, a leading podcast for product professionals.
Founded in 2014, Product School was bootstrapped for the first 7 years before raising $25 million from Leeds Illuminate. We are proud to be a profitable, fast-growing company shaping the future of education.
The Role:
We are looking for a VP of Product with experience building AI-native products and would love to create learning experiences to help other product professionals learn. This role sits at the intersection of building and teaching. This is not a “strategy-only” role; you are the primary builder and subject matter expert for our AI curriculum.
You will operate as an Individual Player-Coach. While you will have a small team of one human content specialists and one human graphic designer to help accelerate your output, you augment your output with agents to and be in the weeds—writing, prototyping, and refining content yourself. Your team acts as your “ghostwriters” and “force multipliers,” but the technical depth and instructional vision come directly from your hands-on experience building AI products.
What you’ll do:
- Serve as the primary AI Product SME across the content organization, setting the strategic direction for all AI-focused certifications and learning programs
- Lead and mentor a team of Content Strategists responsible for building, editing, and scaling curriculum
- Translate real-world AI product experience into structured, engaging training content for product managers
- Partner closely with industry experts, instructors, and internal stakeholders to continuously evolve course material
- Ensure all AI certifications reflect current best practices across AI product strategy, development, experimentation, and implementation
- Review and elevate content quality to maintain Product School’s standards for clarity, relevance, and engagement
- Identify emerging AI trends, tools, and methodologies to keep curriculum ahead of the market
This role could be a good fit for you if:
Proven experience as a senior Product Leader building and scaling AI-powered products (e.g., AI platforms, ML-driven features, automation, GenAI products, data-driven systems)
Deep understanding of modern product management practices within AI-first environments
Experience leading teams (formal people management experience preferred)
Strong ability to communicate complex AI and product concepts in a clear, engaging way
Passion for education, knowledge-sharing, and developing others in product
Comfort working in fast-moving, ambiguous environments where AI technology is rapidly evolving
Bonus if you have the following:
- Previous experience creating training content, curriculum, or thought leadership in product or AI
- Experience working in B2B SaaS, enterprise AI, or platform products
Public speaking, teaching, or coaching experience
The perks:
- Remote First - our team works remotely across multiple countries and time zones
- Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage in the US - support for additional coverage is available in Spain
- Company Team Offsites and Coworking - we believe that remote-first doesn’t mean remote-only
- Free Product School Course Offerings - we offer a range of courses and certifications worth $27,000 that we readily encourage our employees to explore
- Monthly Internet Reimbursement - we support our team, wherever they’re working from
