The role:

You’ll be a key member of our Machine Learning and Chat pillar that is responsible for Cleo’s ability to have meaningful and delightful conversations with our users. As a Lead Product Manager, you'll work closely with a cross-functional squad of engineers, designers, data scientists, analysts and writers on an area of our ML and chat tooling, as well as managing two other Senior Product Managers in the ML/Chat pillar.

Outcome 1: Improve Cleo’s ability to converse with, guide and coach our users

• Continue to improve our contextual intent recogniser so we have chatflows that cover a broad set of user jobs to be done
• Tune LLMs for our major user intents, ensuring that they reflect Cleo’s tone of voice and personality
• Ensure we have tools to quickly create and manage new intents, chatflows and replies

Outcome 2: Increase our understanding of users’ financial data and goals in order to have meaningful conversations

• Focus on accurate identification and categorisation of users’ income, bills, expenses, savings and debts
• Increase user engagement with chat, and chat as a driver of retention
• Ensure that the squad’s work aligns with the strategic direction/discovery work from other squads on what users are willing to pay for in the financial advice/coaching space

You should apply if you:

• As a guide, you'll have 7+ years of experience in a product role involving data science/machine learning, experience in personalisation/recommendations is a plus
• Enjoy being hands on with a cross functional team of analysts, designers, data scientists and engineers
• Able to say “no” more than you say “yes” to keep the squads focused on the most impactful priorities, but also able to communicate clearly with stakeholders and get alignment
• Work collaboratively with your product squad and involve them in strategy and decision-making
• Bring creativity into how we approach financial products. We're radically changing how people interact with and feel about their finances. This means thinking about problems in a different way, and we encourage PMs from all backgrounds to apply.
• Bring energy and drive to ensure your product is successful. People would describe you as a force of nature who cares about their team

How long will the process take?

We aim to move as fast as possible. Usually 2-3 weeks is enough time for us all to get to know each other.

• Step 1: Call with a member of our Talent Team to find out more about your experience and why you want to work at Cleo
• Step 2: 45-60 minutes with another of our ML focused Product Managers
• Step 3: Live product task interview, to be presented to one of our Product Managers and Data Scientists
• Step 4: 45 minutes each with two cross-functional peers from Engineering, Design or Analytics
