Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
AI Outcomes Manager roles are emerging as a distinct function in modern SaaS, sitting between product value delivery and customer strategy as AI capabilities move from pilots into day to day workflows. This listing is notable for its explicit focus on turning an AI platform into measurable outcomes across multiple departments, with direct engagement from executive sponsors through to end users in a Bay Area hybrid setting.
For a SaaS career, this kind of remit builds durable skills in value realisation, adoption mechanics, and outcome measurement, areas that increasingly determine retention and expansion in AI enabled products. The work naturally develops fluency in translating ambiguous business problems into success metrics, then iterating on solutions with product and R&D input, a pattern that transfers well across customer success, solutions, product, and applied AI roles in SaaS.
This role tends to suit professionals who enjoy consultative, customer facing work but want to stay close to how the product is shaped and operationalised. It will fit someone comfortable moving between workshop facilitation, stakeholder communication, and hands on experimentation with LLM tools, while maintaining a pragmatic view of what current models can reliably deliver.

- Conduct discovery workshops, scope pilots, and guide rollouts, driving breadth and depth of adoption of the Glean platform.
- Design and build AI agents with and for customers, including rethinking and redesigning underlying business processes to maximize impact and usability.
- Proactively identify expansion opportunities and drive engagement across teams and functions.
About you:
- 5+ years of professional experience in roles that blend business and technology (e.g., product, analytics, data, engineering, solutions), with a consultative, customer‑facing approach.
- Strong problem‑solving and communication skills; comfortable working with stakeholders from ICs to executives and tailoring messages to different audiences.
- Demonstrated ability to craft effective prompts and guide AI agents for real customer or business workflows; you’ve shipped outcomes, not just demos.
- Understanding of what current LLMs can and cannot do; able to set expectations and steer towards reliable, safe, cost‑effective solutions.

- Hands‑on experience with modern AI platforms and tools (e.g., OpenAI, Claude, Mistral, Cohere or similar), with enough technical depth to work with engineers without needing to be on the critical path for writing production code.
- Good to have:
- Prior experience in customer‑facing, consultative roles (solutions, support, product management) and comfort presenting to senior leaders.
- Exposure to evaluating AI outcomes (e.g., defining success criteria, using sample tasks, reviewing results) and iterating for quality, latency, and cost.
