The Opportunity
Postman is an AI-native developer companion that integrates deeply into every part of the development workflows. We are looking for a Product Builder to join our product team and help shape how developers experience Postman in an AI-first world. This role blends product management, engineering, and customer empathy. You should be as comfortable writing a spec and making a PR as you are building a prototype.
You will work closely with engineering and design to imagine, prototype, and ship new experiences that make Postman indispensable for developers. The ideal candidate moves easily between strategy and execution and uses technical skills to accelerate product learning and delivery. You are an engineer first who enjoys solving business problems with a strong bias to action to meet customer needs.
What You'll Do
• Own and drive the developer journey, focusing on how AI-native experiences.
• Build functional prototypes and proof-of-concepts to validate ideas quickly and inform roadmap direction.
• Collaborate closely with engineers to shape APIs, workflows, and systems.
• Translate business and user goals into developer-friendly product experiences.
• Drive adoption of and improve Postman’s suite of products.
• Maintain a deep understanding of developer workflows and pain points.
• Operate independently, identifying opportunities and driving them to completion.
Must Have
• 5+ years of experience in engineering or a hybrid PM/engineering role at a B2B SaaS or developer tools company.
• Strong technical background; you’ve built or contributed to real web apps, APIs, or systems.
• Experience building prototypes or proof-of-concepts (React, Node.js, or similar).
• A strong grasp of developer workflows and how tools fit into them.
• A bias toward action and a willingness to roll up your sleeves to move ideas forward.
• Interest in how AI is changing the way software is built.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to work across design, engineering, and leadership teams.
Nice to Have
• Previous founder or early-stage startup experience.
• Experience with developer tools, SDKs, or API platforms.
• Familiarity with AI or ML integrations (OpenAI, LangChain, vector databases, etc.).
• Experience thinking across the full customer and business journey, not just features.
How You'll Succeed
• Deeply engage in the building process and don't treat this like a traditional PM role.
• Drive impact and avoid getting stuck in the implementation details.
• Focus on major workflow improvements vs small optimizations.
• Don't
