Why is this role so important
As Senior Product Manager, API, you will own the products that power how customers and AI applications access our data: our REST APIs, Batch APIs and our new MCP Server for AI agents.
You will be responsible for shaping the strategy, execution, and developer experience across these surfaces. Your work will define how data driven teams, partners, and AI agents discover, query and operationalize our digital intelligence at scale.
This is a highly visible and strategic role at the intersection of product, engineering, data and our global customer base.
About the team
You will join our AI & Data as a Service group, the team that owns our external data delivery. We operate like a startup inside a public company: fast paced, highly collaborative, and obsessed with impact.
You will partner closely with:
Backend and data engineering teams who build and scale our APIs
AI and data science teams who use MCP and APIs to power agentic workflows
Sales, Solutions, and Customer Success who bring customer needs and use cases
Together, you will turn Similarwebs unique dataset into an essential data layer for both customers and AI ecosystems.
