Role summary Scale’s Operations Planning Team sits at the intersection of Engagement Management (EM), GenAI Delivery, GTM, and Growth Ops. The Planning TPM reduces friction between customer requirements and delivery by centralizing planning, standardizing reporting, and driving consistent process execution across accounts. As a TPM on Planning you will own program-level planning and systems workstreams that translate demand into reliable production plans, validate staffing, and ensure opportunities move through ingest accurately. This role combines program management, operational rigor, analytics literacy, and strong stakeholder management, with the goal of making account planning predictable, auditable and scalable. This is a role designed to build deep account knowledge: each Planning TPM will ultimately be assigned to support 1–2 priority accounts to develop the context and relationships required to drive lasting operational improvements and more accurate planning and forecasting. What you’ll own (key responsibilities) Demand Forecasting Ensure project-level customer demand is captured accurately, consistently and at the right level of granularity. Own day-to-day monitoring and execution of Production Plan and Opportunity Forecast; act quickly on demand changes. Partner with Supply Ops to review the Production Plan weekly (PP, TCD, historical productive hours) and drive forecasting accuracy and adjustments. Surface forecast risks and coordinate tactical interventions through the Ops Planning leads. Staffing & Resource Planning Create/validate staffing requests and communicate staffing changes to Delivery teams, STOs and EMs. Monitor account-level FTE budgets and employee spend; contribute to cost/benefit analysis of staffing vs. revenue. Stress-test staffing scenarios to provide early warnings on headcount risks and to inform hiring / reallocation decisions. Validate staffing tracking accuracy weekly; identify and correct discrepancies in project-level staffing data. Opportunity Forecast & Ingest Ensure all revenue-generating opportunities are correctly logged in Opportunity Ingest (Linear) and that scoping is consistent. Act as the owner for opportunities as they move through the ingest workflow — expedite translation of demand signals into the forecast (Airtable / PP / OF). Run weekly checks to confirm Opportunity Forecast accuracy, and coordinate tactical scoping fixes when needed. Account Intelligence & Systems Enablement Actively participate in core account meetings (ops, finance, GTM, delivery) as the Ops demand operational lead. Design, build and maintain scalable planning tools and account-level reporting artifacts (ramp planning sheets, account dashboards, account playbooks). Standardize and centralize information flow across customer ops pillars (demand forecasting, staffing, opportunity ingest). Drive systems enablement, process documentation (SOPs), and handoffs that reduce manual work and increase reliability. Compensation packages at Scale for eligible roles include base salary, equity, and benefits. The range displayed on each job posting reflects the minimum and maximum target for new hire salaries for the position and may be inclusive of several career levels at Scale; it will be determined during the interview process based on work location and additional factors, including job-related skills, experience, qualifications, interview performance, and relevant education or training.

Scale AI builds the data infrastructure that powers the world’s most advanced AI. We are the trusted data partner behind frontier model makers and enterprise AI teams — providing the high-quality training data, evaluation frameworks, and human-feedback systems that make models smarter, safer, and more capable. Scale operates as a two-sided marketplace. On the demand side , our customers — leading AI labs and enterprises — need precisely labeled, expert-curated data to train and evaluate their models. On the supply side , we work with a global network of 500,000+ skilled contributors across 100+ countries who perform the complex annotation, evaluation, and data-generation tasks that fuel AI progress. Product Managers at Scale sit at the intersection of these two sides, shaping the systems, tooling, and experiences that make this marketplace work at unprecedented quality and scale. We are hiring Product Managers across multiple teams within our GenAI organization. These roles span both demand-side products (the tools and platforms our customers interact with) and supply-side products (the systems that power our contributor ecosystem). Each role offers the opportunity to work on high-impact, technically complex problems at the frontier of AI — with dedicated engineering, design, and data science teams. About the Role Scale’s GenAI platform is how the world’s leading AI companies — from frontier model labs to Fortune 500 enterprises — create the training data that makes their models best-in-class. As a PM here, you are building the systems that directly shape AI model quality. These roles are deeply cross-functional. You will work with dedicated engineering, design, and data science teams, as well as operations, finance, growth, and customer-facing stakeholders.

Scale AI builds the data infrastructure that powers the world’s most advanced AI. We are the trusted data partner behind frontier model makers and enterprise AI teams — providing the high-quality training data, evaluation frameworks, and human-feedback systems that make models smarter, safer, and more capable. Scale operates as a two-sided marketplace. On the demand side , our customers — leading AI labs and enterprises — need precisely labeled, expert-curated data to train and evaluate their models. On the supply side , we work with a global network of 500,000+ skilled contributors across 100+ countries who perform the complex annotation, evaluation, and data-generation tasks that fuel AI progress. Product Managers at Scale sit at the intersection of these two sides, shaping the systems, tooling, and experiences that make this marketplace work at unprecedented quality and scale. We are hiring Product Managers across multiple teams within our GenAI organization. These roles span both demand-side products (the tools and platforms our customers interact with) and supply-side products (the systems that power our contributor ecosystem). Each role offers the opportunity to work on high-impact, technically complex problems at the frontier of AI — with dedicated engineering, design, and data science teams. About the Role Scale’s GenAI platform is how the world’s leading AI companies — from frontier model labs to Fortune 500 enterprises — create the training data that makes their models best-in-class. As a PM here, you are building the systems that directly shape AI model quality. These roles are deeply cross-functional. You will work with dedicated engineering, design, and data science teams, as well as operations, finance, growth, and customer-facing stakeholders.

Scale is a growth-stage company with the resources of a well-funded leader and the urgency of a startup. PMs here operate with significant autonomy, ship frequently, and are expected to be deeply analytical and hands-on. Example Product Management Openings: Task UX (Demand Side) — Own the end-to-end tasking product. You will define how tasks are designed, how contributors interact with multi-turn chat interfaces, and how in-task quality is measured and enforced across diverse conversational modalities. This is a critical surface area for training the next generation of models. Multi-Dimensional Quality (Demand Side) — Own Scale’s MDQ measurement framework, the CoPilot assisted-annotation experience, and our data pipeline connectivity layer. You will drive the core data quality infrastructure that customers depend on — defining how quality is decomposed, measured, and surfaced, while building AI-assisted tooling that helps contributors produce higher-quality outputs faster. Pay & Incentives (Supply Side) — This PM owns the payment and incentive systems that serve Scale’s global contributor base. You will ensure 500,000+ contributors across 100+ countries are paid accurately and on time, set pay rates methodically by skill and geography, and design incentive structures that balance cost efficiency, data quality, and contributor satisfaction. This role sits at the intersection of marketplace economics, global payments operations, and contributor experience. You Will Set the product strategy and roadmap for your area, grounded in customer needs, data analysis, and business impact Develop and execute a data-driven product roadmap through close collaboration with senior leadership, engineering, operations, data science, analytics, and design Translate customer and internal-user needs into clear, well-defined functional and technical requirements backed by data analysis and deep understanding of your users Guide and interface closely with engineering and data teams to define scope, review and refine technical capabilities, prioritize projects for release, and identify new opportunities Build long-term instrumentation, monitoring, and evaluation capabilities for product performance tracking and insight generation Establish business cases and projected return on investment to identify and prioritize opportunities Partner with finance and business leaders to manage impact on the profitability and growth of the overall business Communicate product vision, strategy, and progress to executive stakeholders and cross-functional partners Ideally, You’d Have 4–10 years of experience in Product Management in the tech industry, with scope appropriate to level (L4: 4–6 yrs, L5: 6–8 yrs, L6: 8–10+ yrs) Strong business acumen and analytical rigor, with demonstrated success driving products in ambiguous, high-growth environments Experience translating complex technical systems into clear product strategies — comfort engaging deeply with engineering and data science teams Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, capable of influencing across technical and non-technical audiences Experience building products from the ground up and iterating through the scaling journey of a business Bachelor’s or advanced degree in a quantitative, engineering, or related discipline Nice to Have: Experience in AI/ML, data infrastructure, or marketplace businesses Strong understanding of the AI landscape — model training workflows, data labeling, evaluation, and deployment Experience with global payment systems, contributor/gig-economy platforms, or trust & safety domains Experience working at high-growth startups or scaling consumer/enterprise platforms Compensation packages at Scale for eligible roles include base salary, equity, and benefits.
