Staff Product Manager

About Maze

Maze is the user research platform that helps companies build the right products faster by making user insights available at the speed of product development.

In most companies, research demand far exceeds supply. Time, cost, and lack of access to expertise hold teams back. In today’s AI-powered world, anyone can build a product fast. The real challenge? Deeply understanding user needs and building the right product. That’s where Maze comes in.

We believe companies shouldn’t have to choose between building fast and building right. Maze makes research accessible, intuitive, and fast so product teams can put user insights at the center of every decision.

Our platform enables researchers, designers, and product managers to quickly recruit participants, run studies autonomously, and surface insights that actually drive product decisions. Our AI capabilities automate the busywork and add depth and direction to the insights themselves.

That’s why Maze was recently named the #1 user research platform in UX Tools’ Design Tools Survey—and why we’re scaling fast across industries like B2B SaaS, e-Commerce, Financial Services, Retail, and Automotive, supporting world class customers such as Uber, Amazon, Atlassian, Anthropic & more.

Maze is a Series B company backed by top-tier investors (Felicis, Emergence & Amplify). We operate a global remote workforce driven by our core values.

Please note that this role is open exclusively to candidates based in United Kingdom, Portugal, or within the Eastern Time Zone in the United States or Canada. Due to the nature of our work and collaboration requirements, applications from other locations will not be considered. We appreciate your understanding and interest!

About The Role

We're looking for a Staff Product Manager to lead core product initiatives in building Maze’s research-grade AI assistant, spanning study creation, recruitment, collection, analysis, and synthesis. You will own end-to-end outcomes within a cross-functional pod (PM/Design/Engineering), driving strategy, roadmap, and execution for high-impact AI use cases. This role involves pushing the frontier of prompt engineering and LLM-powered product experiences, translating customer problems into scalable, automated research workflows.

In this role, you will:

• Spend a lot of time with our customers and users to deeply understand their needs.

• Develop key parts of our product roadmap, marrying customers’ needs with our product vision.

• Empower your team by giving context, setting direction, and building alignment.

• Drive customer-focused decisions, clear prioritization, and efficient execution.

• Coordinate cross-functionally with leadership, go-to-market teams, and other key stakeholders across the company.

• Build processes that will scale as our team and company go through rapid growth.

• Operate as a force-multiplier: mentor PMs, elevate product quality, and raise the bar for product thinking, speed, and decision rigor.

• Ship fast in a dynamic environment—validate quickly, iterate with real users, and make pragmatic calls that balance craft, risk, and impact.

We are seeking a Staff Product Manager who demonstrates:

• Extensive Experience: 6+ years as a Product Manager in a B2B or B2B2C SaaS environment (bonus points for AI/ML experience).

• Data-Driven Approach: Proven ability to leverage quantitative (metrics, analytics) and qualitative (research, user feedback) data for product prioritization and decision-making.

• Customer-Centric Craft: High customer empathy and strong product craft, coupled with meticulous attention to detail.

• Adaptability & Impact: A track record of shaping and successfully launching products in ambiguous and evolving landscapes.

• Exceptional Communication: Outstanding written and verbal communication skills.

• Ownership & Results: A history of taking initiative, owning outcomes, and consistently delivering results.

• Collaborative Spirit: Effective collaboration with cross-functional partners.

• Mission Alignment: A mission-first approach, understanding that success is measured by the product and team's achievements.

What’s exciting:

• You will report directly to the product team’s lead and work closely with a fully remote, cross-functional, and dynamic team distributed across the US and EU.

• You will join a team of senior product managers who are passionate about product development and the craft of product discovery.

• Your role will involve collaborating with our diverse team to drive product strategy, overview development, and go-to-market launches, and ultimately shape the future of Maze’s business.

Inclusivity and Pay

At Maze, we are dedicated to building an equitable, inclusive, and authentic workspace. Unique and diverse perspectives are welcomed, and continuous growth is encouraged. We believe that people are more than their resumes, so if your past experience looks different than the criteria listed, we'd still love to hear from you. We appreciate and celebrate non-traditional life routes and encourage you to apply should you connect with a job description or the Maze culture. 

Maze values transparency and it enables us to approach compensation equitably across the world. We are informed by data and regularly check our salary ranges (either United States or Rest of World) against other venture backed companies. Additionally, we are proud of our holistic and generous benefits offerings, included in every compensation package.

Your salary is dependent upon many factors, including years of experience, expertise, etc. During your first interview, you can expect to have an open conversation with your recruiter regarding your compensation expectations.

Why Maze is unique

• Early-stage startup: You will join an early-stage startup with less than 150 team members. This means you'll have the unique opportunity to directly impact success and help shape the future of Maze.

• Market disruption: We believe that the way companies build products is fundamentally broken and the user research market is ripe for disruption. For too long, companies have been forced to choose between rapid development without user insights or investing months into research before bringing products to market. But there's finally a groundswell building around a path forward that eliminates this compromise - and Maze is leading the charge.

• Product-market Fit: Maze is used by 100,000+ brands across 4,000 companies, from SMB to enterprises, and in the last fiscal year, we saw 6.5M questions answered, supporting 25K decisions
