Job description

We're transforming the grocery industry

At Instacart, we invite the world to share love through food because we believe everyone should have access to the food they love and more time to enjoy it together. Where others see a simple need for grocery delivery, we see exciting complexity and endless opportunity to serve the varied needs of our community. We work to deliver an essential service that customers rely on to get their groceries and household goods, while also offering safe and flexible earnings opportunities to Instacart Personal Shoppers.

Instacart has become a lifeline for millions of people, and we’re building the team to help push our shopping cart forward. If you’re ready to do the best work of your life, come join our table.

Instacart is a Flex First team

There’s no one-size fits all approach to how we do our best work. Our employees have the flexibility to choose where they do their best work—whether it’s from home, an office, or your favorite coffee shop—while staying connected and building community through regular in-person events. Learn more about our flexible approach to where we work.

 

Overview

Instacart’s Agentic Commerce team is building innovative new AI Solutions such as Cart Assistant – an enterprise-grade, consumer shopping agent purpose-built for grocery. Cart Assistant will provide hyper-personalized conversational commerce experiences, helping millions of people discover products, plan what to eat, and shop in easier and more engaging ways than ever before. 

We’re looking for a Principal Product Manager to help bring Cart Assistant to life and make it a product that both consumers and retailers love. This is a fast paced, 0->1, highly visible product role working at the intersection of generative AI, consumer experience, and retailer-facing B2B e-commerce products.

In this role, you will immerse yourself in and deeply understand both consumer and retailer needs, as well as the latest and greatest available agentic technologies. You will partner closely with engineering, machine learning, data science, design and research teams to translate these needs and capabilities into a winning product strategy and a prioritized roadmap. You’ll lead execution, experimentation, and product delivery, working closely with retail partners and senior leadership.
