Job Description
【About the Company】 The company's mission is to "reinvent the value creation mechanism to advance humanity" by using cutting-edge generative AI and Large Language Model (LLM) technology to help businesses transform. They operate a SaaS business that provides an AI agent specifically for engineers in the manufacturing sector. Their new PaaS business offers a service that structures a company's hidden data, turning it into a valuable asset. Their main focus is on the R&D departments of major Japanese manufacturers. Already, over 300 companies—including 30% of the Nikkei 225—have implemented their services. The company plans to expand from manufacturing R&D to other enterprise companies in Japan, and eventually to global businesses. The company is also dedicated to developing a purely domestic LLM with a strong grasp of the Japanese language and business domain. In May 2024, they released a 100-billion-parameter model. In October 2024, they completed their Series D funding round, raising ¥4.5 billion and bringing their cumulative funding to ¥8.8 billion. With a workforce of 150 employees, they are now hiring more people to support their continued growth. 【Current Challenges】 The company's SaaS product is designed to facilitate innovation in manufacturing R&D by providing a single point of access to internal and external information. While the engineering team has about 30 members, the difficulty of planning AI and LLM-related products is causing delays. There's a particular need for technically complex planning, such as developing the foundation for collecting and using vast amounts of internal and external information, and designing new user experiences that leverage the company's proprietary LLM and generative AI. Therefore, the company is recruiting for a position that requires a person to connect AI, LLMs, and product management to drive product planning. 【Responsibilities】 You'll be a Product Manager for the company's SaaS product, specializing in AI LLMs. The company's product organization divides its development teams into units called "Features."
