We offer our customers the largest assortment of premium & luxury fashion products in one place, curating pieces from 27,000 of the world's leading brands and stores. In 2025, Lyst joined Zozo, operators of Zozotown, the leading fashion e commerce platform in Japan. This partnership marks a bold new era for Lyst, as we accelerate our vision and work together to transform the future of fashion shopping through AI and technology. At Lyst, we obsess over the customer, providing a search & discovery experience which offers inspiration, fulfilment, and personalisation. We believe that fashion is amazing but shopping for fashion often isn't, and use our technology, data and creativity to bring more joy, greater choice and fewer fails. Our mission is to help fashion shoppers make better choices and help fashion partners find better audiences as the category leading destination for every fashion shopper. The Role We're looking for a technically strong Product Manager to lead our Affiliate Operations product team, and be the primary Lyst owner for our partnership with ZOZO's Data Science team in New Zealand.

You will be accountable for the quality, reliability and discoverability of the world's largest product catalogue, powering discovery and commerce across Lyst. Crucially, you will also support Lyst's commercial initiatives from a TPM perspective - shaping the product and data work to accelerate product merging and enrichment. You'll be the lead Lyst contact for ZOZO's Data Science department and will run regular meetings, define joint milestones and translate data science research into Lyst production work. Together you'll accelerate product merging and enrichment while ensuring tooling is production ready. This role is highly cross functional and strategic.

What you'll own Affiliate Operations strategy & roadmap - Prioritise initiatives that raise data quality, completeness and coherence, and ensure delivery of outcomes that improve discovery and checkout metrics. Data foundations & pipelines - Working with engineering, to define product data models and taxonomies and own product data quality KPIs and remediation workflows. Ensure enrichment and merging flows are implemented and monitored. Partnership with ZOZO Data Science (NZ) - Be the primary Lyst lead managing the relationship with ZOZO's data science team: align roadmaps, define experiments, translate research into production requirements, agree on data contracts/security/IP terms, and run regular syncs and reviews. ZOZO collaboration is a core part of our product enrichment work. Operational ownership - Set and measure SLAs for data freshness, accuracy and output quality. Ensure handoffs and runbooks for the Affiliate Operations team are clear. Commercial & stakeholder management - Liaise with Partnerships and Commercial teams to align product data priorities to business objectives (e.g. ROAS bidding algorithms). People & process - Lead the Affiliate Operations product practice: improve team rituals, prioritisation and delivery cadence. Day to day responsibilities Create and maintain an outcome driven roadmap for Affiliate Operations and our commercial roadmap. Translate ZOZO data science outputs (enrichments/merges/flags) into production requirements, APIs and acceptance criteria. Run regular cross organisation planning with ZOZO and Affiliate Operations, including quarterly planning and technical workshops; manage time zone differences and ensure clear asynchronous handovers.

We offer our customers the largest assortment of premium & luxury fashion products in one place, curating pieces from 27,000 of the world's leading brands and stores. In 2025, Lyst joined Zozo, operators of Zozotown, the leading fashion e commerce platform in Japan. This partnership marks a bold new era for Lyst, as we accelerate our vision and work together to transform the future of fashion shopping through AI and technology. At Lyst, we obsess over the customer, providing a search & discovery experience which offers inspiration, fulfilment, and personalisation.

Our mission is to help fashion shoppers make better choices and help fashion partners find better audiences as the category leading destination for every fashion shopper. The Role We're looking for a technically strong Product Manager to lead our Affiliate Operations product team, and be the primary Lyst owner for our partnership with ZOZO's Data Science team in New Zealand.

Data foundations & pipelines - Working with engineering, to define product data models and taxonomies and own product data quality KPIs and remediation workflows. Ensure enrichment and merging flows are implemented and monitored. Partnership with ZOZO Data Science (NZ) - Be the primary Lyst lead managing the relationship with ZOZO's data science team: align roadmaps, define experiments, translate research into production requirements, agree on data contracts/security/IP terms, and run regular syncs and reviews. ZOZO collaboration is a core part of our product enrichment work. Operational ownership - Set and measure SLAs for data freshness, accuracy and output quality. Ensure handoffs and runbooks for the Affiliate Operations team are clear. Commercial & stakeholder management - Liaise with Partnerships and Commercial teams to align product data priorities to business objectives (e.g. ROAS bidding algorithms). People & process - Lead the Affiliate Operations product practice: improve team rituals, prioritisation and delivery cadence. Day to day responsibilities Create and maintain an outcome driven roadmap for Affiliate Operations and our commercial roadmap. Translate ZOZO data science outputs (enrichments/merges/flags) into production requirements, APIs and acceptance criteria. Run regular cross organisation planning with ZOZO and Affiliate Operations, including quarterly planning and technical workshops; manage time zone differences and ensure clear asynchronous handovers. Define and track OKRs tied to listings quality and commercial outcomes. Build the backlog and intake process for operational work, tooling requests and BAU. Communicate progress and trade offs clearly to senior stakeholders. Qualifications 3-6+ years product management experience, with a technical/data focus (hands on TPM or Senior TPM).

Salary: Competitive depending on experience Location: 2-3 days on-site at our Harwell office with travel to client site when required Contract type: Full-timepermanent - 37.5 hours A note from the Founders Oxford Dynamics is at an inflection point. We operate in some of the most complex and high stakes environments in the world - defence, national security, AI and robotics. The decisions we make now will define not just how fast we grow, but who we become. You will work closely with all the team. You will be trusted with judgment calls. You will influence the business. And you will see the impact of your work every day in the work we do. If you are excited by ownership, pace and purpose - and by building something that genuinely matters - we would love to hear from you. Who We Are Founded in 2020, Oxford Dynamics (OD) is a fast growing UK deep tech company developing AI and robotic systems designed to operate in mission critical environments. Our flagship AVIS (A Very Intelligent System) AI framework fuses multi modal data - text, imagery, telemetry and sensor feeds - enabling operators to interrogate complex information at speed and make better decisions under pressure. Our STRIDER robotic platform performs autonomous tasks in hazardous environments, protecting people while extending operational reach. Our ambition is simple but demanding: to converge AI and robotics so machines can sense, understand and act in complex, real world environments. We work with defence and security organisations internationally to help protect nations, infrastructure and lives. What you will be doing here/ why this role matters Oxford Dynamics is a small team who rely on a collaborative and positive approach and so the right attitude for this role is equally as important as experience. We are at an important stage and time in our growth, and as aSenior AI Generative Robotics Engineer you will be an essential part of our success. You'll work at thecutting edge of agentic and generative AI, building systems that move beyond lab demos and intoreal world deployment at pace. At Oxford Dynamics, you'll have the freedom to experiment in a fast moving environment, the responsibility to deliver, and the opportunity to shape howmulti agent AI systems operate in complex, constrained, and high trust environments. If you're excited byagent orchestration, VLLMs, and deploying AI where it matters, this role is built for you! Role Summary We're hiring a Test & AI Evaluation Lead to own how Oxford Dynamics validates its AI driven, mission critical systems - from multi agent orchestration and LLM outputs through to cloud infrastructure and real time user facing applications. You'll design and lead test approaches where correctness, resilience, and security matter as much as feature velocity. Working embedded with AI, Backend, Frontend, and DevOps, you'll shape how we validate agent behaviours, data pipelines, and end to end operational workflows - from research prototypes through to production deployments for Defence and Security customers. Quality is built in from day one, not inspected at the end. Key Responsibilities Define and own the end to end test strategy across AI, backend, frontend, and infrastructure layers. Establish testing standards appropriate for agentic AI systems, including non deterministic behaviour and probabilistic outputs. Ensure testing aligns with mission critical, safety conscious, and security first delivery expectations. Act as the primary quality authority across projects, advising engineering and product leadership on risk and readiness. AI & Data Focused Testing Design approaches for testing multi agent workflows, including orchestration logic, memory/state handling, and tool integrations. Define validation strategies for LLM outputs, including groundedness, hallucination detection, task success rates, and regression testing. Work with AI Engineers to embed evaluation metrics and pass/fail thresholds into pipelines. Validate data ingestion, transformation, and inference pipelines across structured and unstructured data sources. Automation & Tooling Drive a test automation first mindset, integrating tests into CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Argo CD). Oversee automated testing across API and service layers, UI (E2E and accessibility), and infrastructure and deployment workflows. Select, implement, and evolve testing tools and frameworks appropriate to modern cloud native and AI systems. Non Functional Testing Own performance, scalability, reliability, and resilience testing for distributed systems. Coordinate security testing activities in line with secure by design principles (e.g. IAM, secrets handling, data boundaries). Validate backup, disaster recovery, and failover scenarios alongside DevOps and Backend teams. Delivery & Collaboration Embed with delivery teams to ensure testing is planned early and executed continuously. Work closely with Product and Engineering to define clear acceptance criteria and definition of done. Provide clear, decision ready quality reporting to technical and non technical stakeholders. Support customer facing demonstrations, trials, and operational readiness assessments. Required Skills & Experience Proven experience as a Test Manager, Senior Test Lead, or equivalent on complex software systems. Strong track record of taking applications into production in regulated environments. Strong background in automated testing across APIs, services, and UIs, integrated into CI/CD pipelines. Experience testing distributed, cloud native systems (AWS, GCP, or Kubernetes), including performance, reliability, and resilience. Awareness of compliance frameworks (e.g. ISO 27001, NIST, OWASP). ISTQB Advanced / Test Manager certification or equivalent practical experience. SC Clearance or eligibility to obtain UK SC Clearance. Preferred Experience Experience in UK defence, public sector, or security environments. Experience testing AI/ML/LLM based systems, including non deterministic outputs. Exposure to agent based or workflow driven architectures. Soft Skills A pragmatic, delivery focused mindset - able to balance speed with rigour. Comfortable operating in fast moving, ambiguous, R&D heavy environments. Confidence challenging assumptions and raising quality risks early. Strong written and verbal communication, especially around complex technical risk. Why Oxford Dynamics? Join the most exciting growth area in the UK: AI and Robotics! Every member of the Oxford Dynamics team has a major impact on the products and services we provide. Regardless of job title you'll get to make a real difference and learn from colleagues about all areas of our business. Benefits Salary: negotiable based on experience and attitudes Rapid career progression with meaningful ownership of core systems Opportunity to shape the future of a fast growing, successful, early stage business Flexible working hours Hybrid working model Company pension (UK Government NEST scheme) with company contributions at 4% Private Healthcare 29 days holiday in addition to public holidays (Full Time Equivalent) Oxford Dynamics is committed to creating an inclusive team experience for all. Regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, disability, or parental status, we believe our work is at its best when everyone feels free to be their authentic self. Why This Role? You'll play a critical shaping role in how Oxford Dynamics delivers trustworthy, production ready AI systems into some of the most demanding operational environments there are.
