Role Description
Dropbox is seeking a Principal Product Manager to lead the strategy and execution of our next-generation AI-powered experiences within Dash, Dropbox's universal search and organizational assistant. In this role, you'll shape how people find, organize, and act on their work-crafting intelligent, contextual, and deeply useful experiences across desktop, mobile, and web. You'll define the vision for Dash's most visible surfaces and entry points-whether it's reimagining the Start Page as a daily hub for focus and flow, or evolving our on-device and mobile experiences into intelligent companions for deep work. These are high-impact, 01 roles, giving you the opportunity to explore new interaction models and push the boundaries of what AI can do for productivity. This position demands a balance of customer obsession, technical fluency in AI/ML systems, and strong product instincts. You'll navigate across executive and IC audiences, translating ambiguous opportunities into clear, scalable strategies. If you're passionate about building AI-native, cross-platform product experiences that redefine how people work, we'd love to meet you.

Basic Qualifications
- 10+ years of product management experience, including ownership of major product initiatives end-to-end.
- Proven success building and shipping AI-powered products at scale-especially in productivity, SaaS, or consumer software.

- Comfort operating in 01, pre-PMF environments with shifting priorities and open-ended problem spaces.
- Deeply understand customer workflows and pain points through user research, data analysis, and competitive insights.
