Product Manager (Staff)

Vendelux is building the category-defining platform for event marketing intelligence. Events are one of the largest and most impactful marketing channels, yet historically one of the least measurable. Vendelux brings transparency and performance to this space — helping companies discover, evaluate, and optimize their event strategy with data. Our platform powers thousands of event decisions by delivering proprietary, AI-driven insights across hundreds of thousands of events globally. At the core of our platform is a robust ecosystem of event organizer partnerships — where organizers share first-party data, enabling richer insights for customers while receiving benchmarking and audience intelligence in return. From identifying the highest ROI conferences to enabling targeted meeting programs, Vendelux helps companies turn events into a predictable and scalable growth engine. In addition, Vendelux Meetings extends our platform by turning insights into pipeline — using AI to identify high-value attendees and proactively book 1:1 meetings between our customers and their ideal prospects at events. This enables go-to-market teams to drive measurable ROI and maximize every event interaction. Founded in 2021, Vendelux is a Series B SaaS company backed by top-tier investors including Tribeca Ventures, FirstMark and Hubspot Ventures. We partner with many of the fastest-growing companies in the world, and our team includes leaders from Bain, ZoomInfo, Shutterstock, FanDuel, Compass, Airbnb, Jet.com. and beyond.

Vendelux is looking for a Staff Product Manager to own the strategy and roadmap for our newest product, across customer-facing workflows, internal tooling and AI-native experiences, and to raise the bar for how we plan and ship. You will turn founder and executive vision into product strategy and work side by side with engineering, data, forward deployed engineering, Customer Success and go-to-market teams. This role blends product, project and technical program management. Success looks like a roadmap that plans six months ahead but still adapts to what users need right now, products that move from beta to GA, and product practices that make the whole team faster. This role is based in our NYC office. WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Set product strategy for a full product area and turn founder and executive vision into a prioritized roadmap.

• Own the roadmap across customer-facing workflows, internal tooling and AI-enabled systems, using product and operational data to prioritize.

• Gather and synthesize feedback from customers, prospects and internal teams, including the non-engineering teams building with AI agents.

• Define requirements and success criteria for initiatives across campaign configuration, outreach and maintenance workflows.

• Shape the direction of agentic interfaces for both external and internal users.

• Use AI-generated prototypes to communicate product and UX direction.

• Partner with engineering, data and forward deployed engineering to drive execution and improve planning across teams.

• Lead testing and iteration to move products from beta to GA.

• Set best practices for how product requirements, prototypes and launches flow from idea to release.

• Communicate launches through clear release notes and product documentation.

WHO YOU ARE

• 8+ years of experience managing data-driven products, with clear ownership of what you shipped.

• Experience owning a full product area or product line in a B2B SaaS company, ideally at a marketing-focused startup.

• A track record of leading initiatives across product, engineering and customer-facing teams.

• A track record of building in fast-paced, early-stage environments, including taking products from beta to GA.

• Hands-on experience with AI-forward product development, including LLMs, prompt engineering and agentic workflows, and a clear view of which tools and approaches work best today.

• Strong product and UX instincts, with a history of shipping simple experiences that save users time.

• A data-driven approach to prioritization, using metrics and analysis to find opportunities.

• Sound judgment in ambiguous situations and comfortable working with founders and fast-moving stakeholders.

• Experience with internal tooling, builder workflows or campaign and lifecycle systems; familiarity with Linear or a similar tool is a plus.

BENEFITS

• Competitive base salary and bonus

• Equity

• Healthcare covering medical, dental and vision

• 401(k)

• Catered lunch every day in our NYC office

• Unlimited PTO plus two company-wide shutdowns during the July 4th week and the Christmas – New Year’s week
