Product Manager API & Platform

Descript
About the role
Automated video editing is an emerging category, and we're positioned to define it. Media companies want to turn thousands of podcast episodes into social clips. Marketing teams want to automatically create product demos for every release. Agencies want to process client content in bulk with consistent branding. And they want to do all of that at scale.
As the Product Manager for this 0 to 1 area, you'll build and own the platform that makes this all possible. You'll create APIs that let developers programmatically import media, run AI-powered edits, and export content. In essence, turning Descript's already powerful editing capabilities into infrastructure that media businesses can depend on.
What you'll do
Own the API and developer experience that lets teams create content workflows at scale
Launch integrations that unlock new use cases: MCP wrappers, no-code workflow platforms, and strategic partner integrations
Work closely with our Agentic AI team to influence what editing capabilities we build and how they're exposed through the API
