Technical Product Marketing Manager

About Us At You.com, we are building the AI Search Infrastructure that powers modern AI systems. Our goal is to create the trusted knowledge layer that agents, applications, and enterprises rely on to retrieve real-time, accurate, and citation-backed information. Our platform combines proprietary vertical indexes with LLM-optimized retrieval systems to power AI agents, applications, and enterprise workflows. We are solving hard problems across search, large language models, and large-scale infrastructure to make AI systems more reliable, transparent, and useful. Our team includes engineers, researchers, product builders, and operators who care about solving meaningful problems and delivering real-world impact. Whether you are improving core infrastructure, shaping product experiences, or helping bring new AI capabilities to market, your work will help define how modern AI finds and uses knowledge. About the Role You will sit at the intersection of Product, Engineering, DevRel, Sales, and Marketing, turning deeply technical product capabilities into clear positioning, compelling launches, credible proof points, and developer experiences that drive adoption.

This role is for someone with exceptional product judgment and technical curiosity who can move comfortably between an API response, an eval, a product roadmap, and a launch narrative.
