Associate AI Product Manager
About the Role
At MentorX, we are building next-generation AI-native products that bridge education and real-world career readiness.
We are looking for an Associate AI Product Manager — an entry-level product role designed for candidates with strong product thinking and high AI literacy.
This is not a coding role. Instead, you will learn how to translate real user problems into AI-powered solutions, design workflows around LLM capabilities, and evaluate whether AI should (or should not) be used in a feature.
You will work closely with senior PMs, engineers, and designers to ship real features and grow into a full Product Manager.
What You Will Do
Product Thinking & Execution
- Assist in defining product features, user flows, and success metrics
- Draft PRDs, user stories, and acceptance criteria
- Break down ambiguous ideas into structured product requirements
- Participate in sprint planning and feature reviews
AI-Native Product Design
- Design workflows using LLMs, agents, and automation tools
- Evaluate when AI improves user experience vs. creates friction
- Prototype product logic using prompting, prompt chains, or agent workflows
- Test and iterate AI outputs for reliability and usability
User & Data Insight
- Analyze user behavior and identify pain points
- Run small experiments to validate product assumptions
- Track feature performance and propose improvements
Research & Market Awareness
- Monitor trends in Generative AI and AI products
- Analyze competing products and summarize actionable insights
- Help define product positioning and differentiation
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Communicate product logic to engineers and designers
- Align technical feasibility with business goals
- Support product launches and documentation
Basic Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree (or graduating soon) in any analytical field (Business, Engineering, CS, Psychology, Economics, Information Systems, etc.)
- Strong logical thinking and structured communication
- Ability to break complex problems into clear steps
- Comfortable writing structured documents
AI Literacy (Required)
- You do NOT need to train models, but you must:
- Regularly use AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, etc.)
- Understand basic concepts: prompts, context window, hallucination, reasoning limits
- Know strengths & weaknesses of LLMs in real tasks
- Be able to design workflows using AI instead of manually doing work
Communication
- Fluent in English and Mandarin (for internal collaboration)
Preferred (Nice to Have)
- Personal projects using AI tools (automation, agents, workflows, etc.)
- Experience writing PRDs, research reports, or structured documentation
- Basic understanding of APIs or no-code tools (Zapier, n8n, etc.)
- Internship experience in product, consulting, operations, or analytics
What You Will Gain
- Real product shipping experience
- Mentorship toward full Product Manager role
- Hands-on experience designing AI-native products
- Understanding of how AI changes product strategy
