# Senior Product Manager

-   Full-Time
-   Chicago, IL
-   Product Management

$135,000 - $175,000 / year

[Apply for this role](https://awardspring.com/careers/senior-product-manager/apply)

## Who we are

AwardSpring is an established, growing SaaS company that partners with hundreds of colleges, universities, and foundations across the US and Canada to award scholarships and manage their donors. We complete the virtuous cycle of giving, getting, and giving again, on a mature, multi-tenant platform, with a small, focused team.

## About this role

You came up as a real PM, with years in front of customers and sharp product judgment, and you seized agentic tooling to start shipping the work yourself instead of handing off specs. You run your own agent workflows, own product areas end-to-end, and make the calls autonomously. If you've been building product this way outside a role that only ever wanted the spec, this is where it becomes the work.

## How we work

We're an AI-native product team. Nearly 100% of the code in our product is AI-generated, and every IC (engineer, PM, designer) ships features end-to-end with agentic tooling. The lines between disciplines are intentionally blurred: PMs ship code, engineers make product calls, designers prototype in production. We hire for fluency in agentic development, not time in any one stack.

If you've been building this way on nights and weekends because your day job won't let you (rigid stack, no token budget, "that's not how we do things here"), this is the place where it's the actual job.

## What you'll do

-   Own significant product areas end-to-end, discovery to production
-   Run your own agent workflows to ship, not just to spec
-   Make the priority and quality calls autonomously
-   Mentor newer builders and raise the bar

## Who you are

-   Roughly 5–8 years in product with serious customer time
-   Fluent shipping with agentic tooling, and you've built your own workflows and skills
-   Sharp, autonomous product judgment
-   Probably already the PM blurring into building where you are

## What we give you

-   Top-tier AI tooling with unlimited token budgets
-   Day-one access to the latest models as they ship
-   A mature, multi-tenant production codebase with real users and real stakes
-   Health, dental, and vision insurance, 401(k) match, unlimited PTO, and paid parental leave
