Living our values everyday results in our team-first culture and enables us to innovate, grow, and thrive while enjoying the journey together. We celebrate diversity and foster an inclusive environment, empowering our employees to be their authentic selves.

We are seeking a Product Management Director - Workforce Engagement to lead the future of intelligent workforce engagement at Five9. This is an individual contributor (IC) role for a seasoned product leader who thrives in deep domain ownership, hands-on execution, and strategic influence without direct reports.

In this pivotal role, you will shape the strategy and execution of Five9's Workforce Engagement Management (WEM) portfolio — spanning AI-driven Quality Management (QM) and Workforce Management (WFM) — transforming how contact centers evaluate interactions, optimize agent performance, forecast demand, and manage their workforce at scale. You will position Five9 as a leader in intelligent workforce engagement, delivering products that fundamentally change how organizations plan, manage, and continuously improve their contact center operations.

We're looking for a visionary product leader who combines deep WEM domain expertise with hands-on experience in agentic AI, exceptional strategic thinking, and cross-functional influence. The ideal candidate brings a proven track record in QM and WFM product management, hands-on experience designing and building workforce engagement solutions, and a passion for solving complex operational problems through intelligent automation and autonomous AI agents. You should be equally comfortable discussing agentic AI architectures, forecasting algorithms, and scheduling optimization with engineers as you are presenting strategic roadmaps to executive leadership.

You will collaborate with a global team spanning the United States, Portugal, and India.
