Product Manager

Company Overview

Construction is a $13T industry that powers civilization. It’s also running on PDFs, rulers, and 1990s software.

The biggest choke point? Cost estimates. Takeoffs are manual, brutal, and slow — estimators spend days counting materials from drawings by hand. One mistake blows millions.

Bobyard is automating construction takeoff with AI.

We use CV + NLP to read drawings like an expert estimator, but 10x faster with less mistakes. We’re turning the most painful part of pre-construction into software.

We’re a lean, elite team backed by the best VCs on earth: 8VC, Primary, and Pear. We’re building next-gen software to drag the built world into the future.

Position Overview

Great products win markets. As we scale our core and launch new 0 → 1 bets, we need a product leader who operates like a founder. You’ll own the product roadmap end-to-end. You will:

• Live in customer workflows: Get in the field with estimators, PMs, and GCs. Understand the job better than they can articulate it.
• Shape vision & roadmap: Decide what we build, what we kill, and how we win. Turn market chaos into a product that feels inevitable.
• Create, iterate, and validate new products: Own 0 → 1. From napkin to revenue. Test, ship, learn, repeat.
• Execute with engineering and UI/UX: No handoffs. You’re in the details — specs, Figma, code reviews, user calls.
• Communicate vision with marketing & sales: Make the market believe. Arm GTM to sell what we build and shape the category.

Desired Attributes

• Founder-level drive: You roll up your sleeves. Ambiguity and chaos are where you thrive. You ship.
• Learning speed & resourcefulness: No construction background required. You’ll be dangerous in 30 days. You hunt down answers.
• Passion and work ethic: Startups are war. This isn’t a cushy PM job at Google. You want to build something legendary.
• Organized operator: You’ll get 1000 requests from 100s of customers. You turn noise into signal and signal into product.

Benefits

• Competitive salary plus equity options (target $130k - $150k)
• Opportunity to collaborate with a dynamic, driven team
• Build a massive company

This is a full-time & in-person role in SF. We are ahead of the nearest competitor by several years in terms of model sophistication and serve a massive untapped market. If you are confident in your ability to maintain that lead and delight our customers, we would love to work with you.

Comp Philosophy

Everything ties directly to what you ship and the impact you drive.
