Director of AI-Enabled Product Lines - InMotion Hosting

The Opportunity

We're growing the InMotion family of brands from $50M+ to $100M+ over the next five years, with AI central to that plan. We believe AI gives mid-market companies the leverage to compete with much larger competitors. We want to be part of solving for that and we've already built early momentum in this direction. We're looking for someone to own what we've started and scale it further.

Market Timing

Success in this role depends on understanding where customer segments fall on the adoption curve, from early adopters to the early and late majority, and using that insight to time product decisions correctly. Part of the job is judging when a product is ready for a given segment, and when it isn't yet.

Our AI-enabled process moves considerably faster than traditional product development, and this role needs to operate at that pace. At any given time, you'll be managing multiple groups of products moving through the pipeline in parallel: a first group ready for market testing, a second group close behind it in development, and a third group in ideation. As results come in, the expectation is to keep that pipeline moving — strong signals from group one mean advancing it to go-to-market, group two moves into refinement, and a new group three starts ideation to keep the cycle continuous.

Your Role

You'll be taking over active, in-motion product lines currently run by our CEO. You're joining work that's already underway, with people already engaged in it, and your job is to bring additional judgment, market fluency, and operating discipline to scale it further. Beyond what's already in motion, you'll also be responsible for developing the broader product suite and shaping what comes next, not just carrying forward what already exists.

This role has direct access to all leaders, including the Board. Your expertise, drive, and successes should raise our collective respect and understanding of how great products are created and kept fresh.

You'll report to the CRO. Onboarding into the product lines will be handled directly by our CEO, who is currently doing this product work.

What Product Ownership Means Here - "CEO of Your Product Lines"

We use this framing deliberately, drawing on Ben Horowitz's description of what a good product manager is:

• You drive vision and own the outcomes of your product line.
• You know your market, product, and competition front to back, thus you operate from real knowledge rather than guesswork.
• You create and own the release calendar, and bring urgency to the leadership team to help you meet it on time.
• You stay close to the sale, especially in the beginning. You test the pitch yourself, hearing objections firsthand and often closing early customers directly.
• You're accountable for the right product at the right time.
