Notion Capital

Notion Capital is seeking a Product Manager based in Greater London to oversee the Agent Platform for Cogna's AI software. You will define product strategy, build scalable backend systems, and enable the integration of AI across platforms. The ideal candidate has over 4 years in product management, a strong technical background, and experience scaling systems. The role includes a competitive salary, flexible working, and benefits such as enhanced parental leave and private healthcare.

We live in a world that runs on physical industries like energy, logistics, and manufacturing. These sectors are essential to our economy and daily lives, yet they are held back by inefficiencies, fragile legacy systems, and decades old ways of working. This is not just a business problem; it is a societal one. When grids fail, supply chains stall, or factories falter, entire economies are disrupted. These companies face unique, complex challenges that typical software was never designed to solve. Cogna was founded to change this. Our mission is to give critical industries their own AI powered Software Factory: a way to build and deploy bespoke digital tools that solve pressing operational challenges. Since our launch in May 2023, we've seen incredible customer traction and revenue growth. We're backed by leading VCs, including Notion Capital and Hoxton Ventures, and we're building a world class team to take on one of the most important challenges of our time. We're a team of around 75 today, on a path to Series B and scaling towards 150. Tackling challenges at this scale takes people who are curious, adaptable, and motivated by impact. If our mission resonates with you, we encourage you to apply, even if your experience doesn't match every requirement. We are committed to building a diverse team that reflects the industries and societies we serve. We are looking for a commercially minded, user focused Product Manager to own the application surfaces our customers interact with directly. Our product surface needs to scale across hundreds of thousands of solution strategists and consultants, providing them access to our AI run software factory that allows them to build bespoke applications for their customers. You'll work closely with partners, customers, design, and engineering to ship intuitive, valuable features and to deepen how much our enterprise customers build with us. You'll sit close to the business. We have strong C suite relationships at our enterprise customers, and those leaders want their teams to do more with us. Your job is to find the easiest ways for those teams to get more value from Cogna and to double down with us. This role suits someone who thrives in a 0 1 environment but understands how product fits into the wider business. You'll be joining as we move past the startup stage into scale up and onto our Series B path, so commercial awareness matters as much as product craft. What You'll Do: Understand user needs: Run deep customer discovery to understand needs and behaviours, and turn that into roadmap and strategy decisions. Deepen engagement: Find easy, high value ways for customer teams to get more from Cogna, build more with us, and double down. Think commercially: Understand product market fit and our high level business strategy, including our Series B path and use it to prioritise which user flows we go after. Drive iterative development: Ship MVPs that solve core user problems, then evolve them based on feedback and usage to maximise user and business value. Collaborate cross functionally: Partner closely with engineering and design to define, prioritise, and ship features that feel intuitive. Run delivery hands on: We don't have TPMs, so you'll keep dev teams aligned on agreed priorities and track delivery closely in Linear. Decide with low signal: Make good calls with limited customer data, relying on research and intuition where complete signal isn't available. What We're Looking For: Experience: 4+ years in product management, with a track record across both 0 1 work and scaling in high growth environments. Scale up experience: You've worked at mid to large company scale, not only at startups, you know what a scaling journey (e.g. through Series B/C) actually looks like. Commercial awareness: You think about product market fit and high level strategy, and you can connect product priorities to the company's commercial path. Enterprise mindset: You've built for enterprise customers and understand how they think about experimentation and satisfaction. Comfortable with AI tooling: You're happy using tools like Claude Code and Claude Design to prototype and move quickly. Thrives in ambiguity: You don't need full clarity before taking action, and you stay effective when signal is low. Experimentation mindset: Highly agile, comfortable trying something, measuring it, and changing course quickly. Well rounded PM: You bring the full gamut of product skills rather than a narrow focus (we've found purely analyst, technical program management, or testing backgrounds tend to fit less well). What We Offer Competitive salary and share option plan 25 days annual leave, plus public holidays Excellent pension scheme, with Cogna paying 7.5% Enhanced parental leave: 12 weeks full salary for all parents (plus up to 4 weeks pre birth for birthing parents) Private healthcare, including family cover and pre existing conditions Flexible hybrid working with 2 days per fortnight in our Farringdon office Regular social events and offsites Access to a gym and fitness classes in our office building

If our mission resonates with you, we encourage you to apply, even if your experience doesn't match every requirement. We are committed to building a diverse team that reflects the industries and societies we serve. The Role We're looking for a Software Engineer who is genuinely excited about building with AI, not just building AI features. You'll work at the frontier of agentic systems, helping to develop the platform that understands customer problems, defines requirements, and generates and verifies software to address them. The right person has strong engineering fundamentals, a problem solving mindset, and uses AI tools as a core part of how they build every day. We care less about where you've worked or how many years you've been in the industry, and more about what you've built, how you think, and whether you have genuine curiosity about what's happening at the edge of software engineering. We've been building AI first products for enterprise customers since the early days of GPT 3.5. We have mature internal frameworks for evaluation, verification, code generation, agentic behaviour, RAG, observability, and orchestration. You'll be contributing to these and using them to build the core intelligence of our platform. What You'll Do Build and maintain reliable AI first product features, including internal frameworks and tooling for working with LLMs Use AI coding tools (Cursor, Claude, and similar) as a genuine part of your daily workflow to build and ship faster Experiment with AI and LLM techniques, models, and approaches to improve the accuracy and reliability of our outputs Design and build reusable application architectures and toolchains, working closely with the software synthesis team Build and improve evaluation systems and benchmarks Take ideas from experimentation to production. You know what a great product looks like and how to get there Write high quality, efficient, and maintainable code. You know how to move fast without creating the kind of tech debt that slows a team down later Contribute to an engineering culture that balances innovation with reliability What We're Looking For Must haves Strong CS fundamentals: you understand architectural trade offs, scalability, and maintainability. You can make sound long term engineering decisions and critically evaluate AI generated code rather than just accepting it. AI native workflow: you use AI coding tools as a core part of how you work, not occasionally. You have a clear view of where they help and where they fall short. LLM experience: either professional or personal. You've worked with LLM APIs and understand the fundamentals of building reliable systems on top of them. RAG, evaluation pipelines, and observability tooling are familiar territory. Python proficiency: our stack is primarily Python and Node. You're comfortable in complex Python codebases and understand the ecosystem well. Startup mindset: you take ownership without being asked, are comfortable with ambiguity, and can balance speed with sound engineering judgment. You understand that what you build today someone will have to maintain tomorrow. Doer mentality: you get your hands dirty across any kind of problem, not just the ones in your immediate scope. We are a small team and we expect people to move with urgency, pick up what needs solving, and care about the outcome, not just the task. Strong signals we look for Active side projects, open source contributions, or a GitHub that shows you build things outside of work Hands on experimentation with new AI tools and models before they become mainstream Experience owning features end to end, not just executing against a spec Evidence of growing into architectural decisions over time, not just rapid prototyping Familiarity with Go or Rust, or modern frontend development Experience with workflow orchestration (Argo, Temporal), Kubernetes, or CI/CD tooling Background in compiler theory, code analysis, or domain specific languages We do not require a specific number of years of experience. We accept candidates with career breaks and CV gaps. Life happens. Please apply anyway. What We Offer Competitive salary & share option plan 25 days annual leave + public holidays 7.5% company pension contribution Private healthcare (including family cover and pre existing conditions) Regular socials and offsites; access to on site gym & classes
