Your opportunity Every company shipping AI right now has the same problem: they can't see what their AI is actually doing in production. New Relic is building the answer, AI Observability, and it's one of the company's top strategic initiatives. We're running it like a startup inside the company: small teams, fast iteration, direct executive sponsorship, and a mandate to ship. As the Principal Product Manager and business owner of this initiative, you'll take it from vision through GA, then keep pushing past GA, where most of the real work actually happens, working directly with some of the largest AI deployments in the world. What you'll do Own the AI Observability roadmap and the business outcomes leadership tracks (adoption, retention, expansion), plus the parts of the job that aren't purely product: pricing conversations, exec reporting, and cross-functional escalations. Drive multiple engineering and design teams in parallel toward a coherent product vision, without formal authority over them. Partner directly with strategic enterprise customers, including their platform and infra teams deciding how to operationalize AI safely, and turn what breaks at their scale into product requirements fast enough to matter. Build working prototypes yourself using agentic AI workflows, so ideas get pressure-tested before engineering time is committed to them. Represent AI Observability in executive strategy and prioritization decisions, and make the tradeoff calls when prioritie
