Senior Product Manager - AI Gateway

We’re in a defining moment of an incredible journey. Come and build with us. AI is now part of almost every workflow built on n8n. But before a new user can build their first AI automation, they often hit a wall: sign up with a model provider, create an API key, add billing, and paste credentials into n8n. Many people never get past that step.

The Relay team removes that wall. With Gateway credits, n8n Cloud users get leading AI models and services such as web search, scraping and document parsing built in, with no keys to manage. A new user can open a template or ask the AI assistant to build something, and it just works on day one.

Make day-one success the default

• Own the Gateway credits experience end to end: from sign-up to first successful AI workflow or Agent, to ongoing usage.

• Remove credential friction across the product. Work with the Growth, Agents and n8n Assistant teams so new users land on services that work out of the box.

• Decide which models and services we offer, and how we price and package them for users..

Build and run provider partnerships

• Own relationships with model and tool providers, from first conversation to signed deal.

• Lead commercial negotiations, including volume commitments, pricing and terms.

• Partner with Finance on commitment approvals and consumption forecasting.

• Decide when to add, expand or drop a provider, based on user demand, quality and cost.

Shape the enterprise AI gateway

• Lead discovery with enterprise customers and prospects: platform teams, IT and security leads, and AI owners.

• Turn what you learn into a clear product strategy, and be honest about what to build, what to pause and what to stop.

• Define the core capabilities: virtual keys, budgets and spend limits, model access policies, usage reporting and audit.

• Consider how the gateway works for self-hosted and Cloud customers. Work closely with engineering and our Cloud team on deployment questions.

• Help define how the enterprise gateway is packaged and sold, together with Sales, Finance and leadership.

Lead across teams

• Work with a dedicated engineering team, and with design, as one product team.

• Coordinate with teams that own nearby areas, such as identity and access management, governance, billing and the Cloud experience.

• Keep leadership, Sales and Customer Success informed, and bring them clear recommendations.

REQUIREMENTS

Must-haves

• Experience as a PM for AI infrastructure, developer platforms or LLM tooling (for example AI gateways, model APIs, or AI platform products), or for enterprise admin and governance products (for example access control, policy, spend management or audit).

• Hands-on experience with partner or vendor deals: you have negotiated terms, not only managed relationships.

• A strong grasp of usage-based pricing, unit costs and consumption forecasting.

• Comfort talking with enterprise buyers: platform engineers, security teams and IT leaders.

• Builder mindset: You’re entrepreneurial and hands-on, and you enjoy moving from an ambiguous problem to a prototype, shipped product, and iteration quickly.

• Technical fluency: You’re comfortable reasoning about APIs, integrations, authentication, schemas, data flows, and system constraints and can partner deeply with engineers.

• Data fluency: You can define meaningful success metrics, investigate product behaviour and funnels, and combine quantitative evidence with qualitative insight and product intuition

Nice-to-haves

• You have built or run an LLM gateway or proxy, or worked closely with tools like LiteLLM, Portkey or similar.

• Experience with products that run both self-hosted and as SaaS.

• You’ve built products for technical users and understand what great developer and builder experiences look like.

• You’ve worked on products involving third-party APIs, authentication, developer platforms, or integration ecosystems.

• You’ve built products alongside developer communities, contributors, or external ecosystems.

We can sponsor visas to Germany; for any other country, you need to have existing right to work.
