About this role
Associate Product Manager
Department: Global Analytics and Technology
Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time
Location: India
Reporting To: Product Manager
Description
Job location: Remote in India
About the role: The Associate Product Manager will work as part of the Digitization and Automation team to help Sun King design, develop, and implement intelligent, tech‑enabled solutions to solve a wide variety of business problems.
We are looking for candidates who have an AI‑first approach to product management. The ideal candidate instinctively reaches for an LLM before opening a document, prototypes before writing specifications, and treats “can AI do this better” as the first question rather than an afterthought.
This role covers end‑to‑end product management: requirements gathering, workflow design, testing, stakeholder coordination, and rollouts. The expectation is that all of these responsibilities are executed in an AI‑first way: faster, sharper, and built to scale.

What you will be expected to do:

- Build working proofs‑of‑concept using LLM APIs, automation tools, or lightweight scripts.
- Validate whether an AI‑first approach solves the problem effectively.
- Ship quickly and learn even faster.
3. Documentation & Handoffs
- Create sharp, handoff‑ready documentation such as use cases, flow charts, PRDs, and system requirements.
- Use AI in documentation workflows but ensure accuracy by catching errors that AI may introduce.
4. Execution & Rollouts
- Coordinate releases, manage testing, and track adoption.
- Resolve stakeholder queries and issues through WhatsApp, ticketing tools, and email.
- Own rollout sequencing and ensure readiness across teams.
5. Automation & Data
- Identify repetitive business processes and automate them using reliable tools.
- Perform regular analytics to track, monitor, and drive product usage.
6. Collaboration
- Work closely with cross‑functional groups and the development team throughout the product lifecycle.
- Keep stakeholders informed at every stage.
