What you’ll do
Agentic development is changing how software gets built. Developers no longer just chat with AI – they delegate tasks, run parallel agent sessions, and steer autonomous changes. As agents take on more work, reviewing and owning the output is becoming the hardest part of the process. JetBrains Air is our open system for agentic development. It brings tools like Codex, GitHub Copilot, Claude Agent, Gemini, and Junie directly into JetBrains IDEs, providing an agentic-first user experience. We are looking for a Senior Product Manager to lead key areas of Air. You’ll take ownership of high-impact workflows, work closely with cross-functional teams (including software engineers, designers, ML researchers, analysts, DevRel, and product marketing), and turn technical complexity into clear product direction.
Day to day, you will:
Take end-to-end ownership of key parts of Air in JetBrains IDEs, driving work from problem framing and discovery to delivery, adoption, and iteration. Define and refine core agentic workflows, including task delegation, session monitoring, steering, and code review. Model complex user flows, system states, permissions, and integration schemes to guide engineering and design decisions. Maintain a transparent roadmap that balances quick improvements with long-term strategic investments. Define telemetry, design experiments, analyze product data, and make evidence-based roadmap decisions. Study how developers interact with leading and tools to inform product priorities. Engage with the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) ecosystem and collaborate with partners building on it. Partner with enterprise sales and support teams to address governance, privacy, and control requirements.
