Who are we looking for

Rainforest is looking for a deeply technical Product Manager for our AI & Agents team. Youll own the agentic products that help vertical SaaS platforms run and grow their payments programs.

This isnt a traditional PM role. We need someone who understands how agentic products are built from the inside: the harness around the model the tools it calls the memory it keeps and the evaluations that prove its getting better. Youll know youre the right candidate when youd rather open a merge request with your AI coding tools than write a ticket about it and when you have strong opinions about which model belongs on which task.

Youll also help shape how AI and agents are used across Rainforest partnering with teams company-wide to bring agentic workflows into how we operate.

What are some of the high-impact opportunities youll tackle

• Owning the product direction for our agent harness including the knowledge skills and tools that make it valuable beyond a thin wrapper on an LLM

• Defining and building the evaluation regression testing and telemetry that keep our agents accurate as models and prompts change

• Tuning agent behavior hands-on from prompts to knowledge base to skills in close partnership with engineering

• Driving model selection and routing decisions across multiple LLMs balancing capability latency and cost

• Designing how our clients own agents interoperate with Rainforest through MCP and agent-to-agent communication

• Making product changes directly using AI coding tools and partnering with engineers to review and ship them

• Serving as an internal thought leader on AI and agents helping teams across Rainforest adopt agentic workflows

• Representing our agentic products externally with clients and the broader market

This opportunity is for you if you have / are:

• Hands-on experience building agentic products or agent harnesses including tool use memory prompt assembly and evaluation

• Deep current knowledge of the LLM landscape including frontier and open-weight models and where each performs well

• Daily fluency with AI coding tools and comfort making real code changes

• Experience building evals or regression suites for LLM-based systems

• Familiarity with MCP agent-to-agent protocols embeddings and multi-model architectures

• A strong technical background whether from product engineering or an adjacent role

• Exceptional written and verbal communication with the ability to explain complex systems to technical and non-technical audiences

• Comfort with ambiguity and a high degree of autonomy in a fast-moving startup

• Experience in payments or fintech is a plus
