 Role Overview

 DriveNets is seeking a highly skilled AI Product Intelligence Lead to modernize and elevate the Product Management function by building an AI-driven product knowledge platform. This role focuses on aggregating and unifying organizational data (engineering, product, competitive, customer) into a structured data lake, and developing an internal AI assistant that empowers the Product organization with real-time insights, competitive analysis, roadmap support, and decision-making acceleration.

This position sits at the intersection of AI, data engineering, product strategy, and organizational knowledge management. You will function as the “AI engine” behind DriveNets Product Management — turning scattered information into structured intelligence and building the tooling that allows PMs to think faster, act smarter, and execute at scale.

Key Responsibilities

1. Build the DriveNets Product Data Lake

• Ingest and normalize data from internal systems including:
• Git / GitHub / GitLab (code evolution, releases, components, architecture)
• Jira (epics, features, sprint data, backlog health, execution trends)
• Confluence (specs, design docs, product decisions, reviews)
• Connect and harvest relevant external data:
• Competitor websites and public documentation
• Analyst reports, industry standards, RFCs
• Media, blogs, financial/market data, community repos
• Establish pipelines for continuous ingestion, cleaning, tagging, and semantic indexing.
• Define and enforce taxonomies, metadata schemas, and embedding strategies for structured and unstructured product information.

2. Build an AI Assistant for the Product Management Function

• Design and maintain a secure, internal DriveNets PM chatbot capable of:
• Understanding DriveNets architecture, products, roadmaps, modules, and features
• Generating roadmap proposals based on business goals, competitive gaps, and engineering capacity
• Providing competitive analysis, feature comparisons, and market positioning
• Summarizing design docs, Jira epics, technical specs, PRDs, RFCs, and Confluence pages
• Acting as an AI peer/consultant for PMs: drafting PRDs, feature breakdowns, risks, GTM summaries, and opportunity reports
• Implement multi-source retrieval (RAG), long-context reasoning, and fine-tuning strategies where applicable.
• Collaborate with Engineering to ensure data security, access control, and compliance.

3. AI-Driven Product Intelligence & Competitive Strategy

• Automatically identify gaps vs. competitors and recommend differentiators.
• Use AI to synthesize market intelligence and propose strategic moves.
• Build dashboards for product, competitive, and risk insights.
• Create automated alerts for competitor releases, standards changes, and relevant industry updates.

4. Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with Product Managers, R&D, Architecture, CTO Office, Sales Engineering, and Leadership.
• Translate business goals into AI capabilities and intelligence-driven tooling.
• Train PMs on using AI tools effectively and integrate AI into their daily workflows.

Requirements

Required Skills & Experience

 Technical Must-Haves

• Strong experience with AI/ML tools, LLMs, RAG systems, vector DBs, prompt engineering.
• Practical experience with data engineering / data pipelines, including:
• ETL/ELT, ingestion, and normalization
• API integrations (GitHub, Jira, Confluence, REST/GraphQL)
• Data warehousing or data lake technologies (Snowflake, BigQuery, S3, Delta Lake, etc.)
• Familiarity with LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar frameworks for AI agents.
• Ability to design scalable, secure, access-controlled AI architectures.

Product Experience

 (not mandatory but is a big advantage)
