SVP, Product

Job description

About Toptal Toptal is a global network of top talent in business, design, and technology that enables companies to scale their teams, on-demand. With $200+ million in annual revenue and team members based around the globe , Toptal is the world’s largest fully remote workforce . We take the best elements of virtual teams and combine them with a support structure that encourages innovation, social interaction, and fun. We see no borders, move at a fast pace, and are never afraid to break the mold. Position Description: As SVP, Product, you will shape the vision as to where Toptal’s products and platforms go next and then drive the execution to build them. This is the most senior product role in the company. You will report to the Chief Executive Officer, sit on the executive team, and work collaboratively with our Engineering, Design, Finance, Marketing, New Businesses, Professional Services, and Customer leaders. AI is not a line item on your roadmap. It is the roadmap. You should be Toptal’s foremost expert on what AI means for products and platforms. That means real depth in fine-tuning and post-training, agent design and evaluation, and the economics of running models in production, along with the judgment to know which applies to us. Work directly with our AI researchers rather than through them. We expect both the AI agenda and the product strategy to originate with you. We will react to your plan rather than hand you ours. This is a hands-on role. You will write your own specs and pull your own data. When you think an agent could take over a piece of work, you will build a rough version and find out whether it holds up before anyone budgets for it. You will sit in product reviews and say what you actually think. We move fast, and we need Product setting the pace. You will own and set the standards for the hiring bar for the product team, bringing in talent that will advance Toptal to the next level. Your remit runs across the business: the core platform, the talent and client experiences, the internal systems that run it, the products we take to market, and the data and AI platform underneath them. You will work hand in hand with Engineering on the platform all of it runs on, fold acquisitions and new products into the portfolio, and know growth marketing cold, because how a product reaches the market is part of building it. Product is yours to shape…
