AI Native Product Builder

We’re looking for an AI Native Product Builder to join our world-class Product team at Vypr.

What we do

Vypr is a Manchester HQ’d Private Equity/Venture Capital backed SaaS business. Our market-leading product intelligence platform provides reliable consumer data to help manufacturers and retailers understand what their customers want to see on shelves. This helps reduce the time and cost spent developing new products, which makes for better products faster. We’re a scale-up business with huge growth ambitions. We’ve proved product market fit with our existing offering, and now we’re ready to scale at pace. We’re using scalable new technology to reimagine our product intelligence platform with limitless future potential, from personalisation to AI-enhanced insight. Our cross-functional, agile product team brings together content and interaction designers, product managers, delivery and engineering to solve valuable business problems and deliver against Vypr’s product roadmap.

About the role

This is an exciting new role in our team that will act as the bridge between an immediate business or customer problem and a product solution. We’re looking for someone curious, with a problem-solving mindset, who is excited to take a hands-on role. You’ll be using agentic AI platforms (Claude Code, Lovable, n8n) to build and ship functional software at 10x the traditional speed. If you don’t already have the skills or you haven’t already used a tool, we‘ll expect you to learn it. The role will involve working on both internal-facing products that will help our colleagues work smarter and customer-facing products that will help our customers get more value out of the Vypr platform. This means you’ll have a great mix of self-directed projects where you can experiment with new tech personally, and the opportunity to work as part of a larger, multidisciplinary team and learn from colleagues with different skills and backgrounds. Long-term, it will be part of your role to stay at the forefront of advances in technology that Vypr could capitalise on in the future.

What you will do

• Horizon scanning for new AI opportunities in the tech-enabled research space
• Manage a pipeline of AI opportunities from early idea exploration through to integration, with clear milestones and KPIs to guide decision-making and customer roadmap prioritisation
• Identify off-the-shelf tools and models that can be used to solve customer or internal business problems
• Run experiments, build prototypes and trial AI tooling to understand capabilities, opportunities and risks (including costs, integration and scalability concerns) for both internal and external projects
• Train and monitor/optimise models to ensure they are as accurate as possible to ensure the highest quality customer experience is maintained
• Develop E2E processes and agentic workflows for building AI into existing Vypr processes and do manual work required to prove feasibility and value
• Work as part of a multi-disciplinary agile team to integrate AI solutions into Vypr Predict
• Keep the wider company abreast of advances in AI and competitive landscape
• Develop internal tools and skillsets that take advantage of new technology to help us all move faster

What experience you’ll bring

• You have experience working in a technology start-up or scale-up environment, where the pace has been fast, and you’ve been used to experimenting, pivoting and learning new skills as and when they are required.
• You have experimented with AI tools and have a demonstrable interest in this area.
• You have developed and refined prompts for AI systems to achieve the desired outputs.
• You have hands-on experience working with and training commoditised ML models.
• You have worked in an agile product team.
• You have worked with developers to scope, refine and understand the feasibility of your work.
• Engineering qualifications or background.
• SaaS or B2B experience.

Who you are

• Insatiably curious: You like to stay ahead of the curve and enjoy getting hands-on with new technology.
• Flexible: You adapt your approach depending on the product development process and balance quality with speed.
• Good communicator: You appreciate the importance of asking questions and can convey complex ideas simply.
• Collaborative: You build strong relationships with colleagues across disciplines to distil problems into design solutions.
