Senior Product Owner / Product Manager - AI / SaaS (m/f/d)

Das ist der Job

Scaling without losing quality, and professionalizing without giving up the speed of a startup.

Darum lohnt es sich

As part of the CODUCT Group, with teams in Germany and Vietnam, ainavio GmbH develops fully automated, AI-based SaaS solutions for retail and e-commerce. You're the central bridge between Sales, Support, integration teams, and external partners on one side, and product development on the other.

We already have POs, teams, and processes in place — your mission is to take them to the next level and help drive the professionalization of our SaaS business.

Your responsibilities You capture requirements from Sales, Support, integration teams, and external partners in a structured way, challenge them, prioritize, and translate them into a clear roadmap. You lead and develop the existing POs and teams — sharpening structures rather than reinventing them.

Experience leading and developing product/engineering teams, ideally distributed and international (in our case: Germany & Vietnam). Relocation to Vietnam is also welcome, as part of our German‑Vietnamese team. Benefits Access to cutting‑edge tech, including AI tools. Team events — digital, on‑site, professional, and sometimes just for fun.

International, supportive colleagues who prefer solving problems over creating them. Flexible work hours, hybrid mode (onsite and home office). With us, you'll find a team that supports each other and pursues its goals together.

Become part of our team and help us shape the future of innovative projects! #J-18808-Ljbffr As an AI startup that has already delivered the hardest proof point: product-market fit - from 0 to 1 – we now come to the phase that decides how big this becomes: from 1 to 10. Your role You own the entire product lifecycle and report directly to the CEO.

You raise existing product processes to the next level of maturity — requirements intake, prioritization, roadmapping, release communication — scalable for further growth. You actively shape our agentic product data layer: from discovery of new agents through quality assurance to rollout.

You help drive SaaS professionalization beyond the product itself — billing/pricing, customer onboarding, and the operational processes of a mature SaaS company. You work data-driven: you define metrics, validate hypotheses, and justify trade-offs transparently (including a clear "no").

You roll up your sleeves and pitch in hands‑on when something isn't working — rather than just delegating. Qualifications Native‑level German speaker. Several years of experience as a Product Manager in SaaS/B2B, ideally in the scaling phase ("1 to 10") and real‑world experience in building AI products.

Demonstrable end‑to‑end ownership of the product lifecycle (discovery to iteration). Experience building and professionalizing scalable product processes.

Genuine understanding of and enthusiasm for AI agents, with a feel for how to design a product around orchestrated, modular agent systems (interplay, human‑in‑the‑loop, quality assurance, reliability). AI tools firmly embedded in your own daily work — you actively shape how product work and software development are fundamentally changing.

Confident communication on equal footing with the CEO and leadership. Nice to have E‑commerce ecosystem: webshops (Shopify, Shopware) and marketplaces (Amazon, eBay, otto) including their data requirements. Knowledge of product data standards (PIM, BMEcat, ETIM, GS1). Technical depth to engage with engineering on equal footing.

Experience with ML/LLM products and handling non‑determinism & quality assurance. Experience with SaaS operations: billing/subscription systems, pricing models, onboarding flows. Experience building partner/integration ecosystems. Experience coaching/mentoring POs. Comfort with ambiguity and rapid change in a scale‑up.

Location This position is based either in Germany or Vietnam. Training and development in your field — continuously, not as a one‑off perk. Dynamic, fun, and agile environment, perfect for sharing and creativity. Additional premium health insurance (Vietnam location).

Enjoy a stress‑free and comfortable commute to and from work with our Grab services sponsor (Vietnamese Uber / Vietnam location). Visa and work permit sponsor to work in Vietnam if necessary. We value honest communication, pragmatic solutions, and a work environment where you enjoy what you do.
