About the role
AI Product Manager, Vertical
Animoca Brands is a leading Web3 entertainment and gaming company building the Minds ecosystem, a platform that connects users with specialized services and experiences. This role focuses on developing and scaling a specific vertical within Minds—whether that's travel, dining, commerce, or another high-potential category—using AI-driven product strategies to drive user engagement and transaction growth.
What you'll do
- Own the complete product experience for your assigned vertical, including the specialized Minds interface, core user journeys, transaction conversion, and retention loops that bring users back.
- Set and deliver on key metrics for your vertical: weekly and daily active users, transaction volume completed, and the conversion and retention indicators that feed these goals. These are your OKRs and you'll drive them with urgency.
- Decide your go-to-market path by prioritizing the core Minds app and ecosystem first, then determining when and whether to build a custom frontend based on data and business case.
- Manage the partner and ecosystem integration roadmap for your vertical—such as booking, e-commerce, or payment partners for relevant categories—and ensure these move from planning into functional, live integrations.
- Pull polished, market-ready product modules from the go-to-market team and adapt them for your vertical. Collaborate with marketing on positioning and user acquisition.
- Develop deeper user understanding than anyone else in the company. Use AI extensively in user research, prototyping, and rapid iteration to accomplish at the speed of a full team working alone.
What you'll bring
- Five or more years of product management experience with a proven track record of owning a product area and meaningfully moving business metrics—particularly user growth and revenue or transaction volume, not just shipping features.
- Full-stack product leadership across user research and UX design, business partnerships, go-to-market execution, and monetization. Strong product taste, clear prioritization judgment, ability to drive execution across teams, and instincts grounded in data.
- Marketplace and transaction mindset. You think about user conversion, payment behavior, and repeat purchase, and can design product mechanisms that create closed loops.
- Native AI product thinking. You understand what agentic AI and large language models can and cannot do. You can evaluate feasibility and make tradeoffs with engineering teams. You use AI tools daily to accelerate your own work.
- Outstanding cross-functional collaboration with engineering, design, data, marketing, and go-to-market product managers. You lead without formal authority and take ownership of P&L-like business outcomes.
Nice to have
- Gaming product experience, especially combining game mechanics with non-game products—Minds is translating real-world tasks into game mechanics.
- Direct experience building custom frontend experiences when needed.
- Familiarity with transaction, booking, or payment API integrations.
