<p><h4>About Lucidya<\/h4>\n<p>Lucidya is an AI-native platform for customer experience (CX) intelligence that helps organizations understand, engage, and retain customers at scale.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike traditional platforms that stop at reporting and dashboards, Lucidya combines proprietary AI, deep language understanding, and autonomous workflows to help organizations move from insight to action. Our technology is built in-house and trained on millions of multilingual customer conversations, enabling brands across the MENA region to make better decisions, deliver better experiences, and build stronger customer relationships.<\/p>\n<p>As AI reshapes how businesses operate, we're building products that make customer understanding faster, more accurate, and more actionable than ever before.<\/p>\n\n<h4>Why this role matters<\/h4>\n<p>Most organizations today are overwhelmed with customer data.<\/p>\n<p>Conversations are happening across social media, surveys, reviews, support tickets, messaging channels, and countless other touchpoints. The challenge isn't collecting the data anymore. It's knowing what matters and what to do next.<\/p>\n<p>The Monitoring & Research domain sits at the center of that challenge.<\/p>\n<p>This is where customers come to understand public perception, identify emerging trends, monitor competitors, measure customer sentiment, and uncover the insights that drive business decisions. It is one of the most strategically important parts of Lucidya's platform and one of the biggest opportunities for innovation as AI transforms how research and customer intelligence are done.<\/p>\n<p>As Senior Product Manager, you'll be responsible for shaping how thousands of users discover, trust, and act on insights generated from millions of customer conversations.<\/p>\n<p>You'll be joining a team that values ownership over hierarchy, customer outcomes over feature output, and learning over certainty. We move quickly, challenge assumptions, and expect product leaders to bring strong opinions while remaining open to changing their minds when the evidence says otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>If you're excited by complex customer problems, AI-powered products, and the opportunity to define the future of customer intelligence in a region where world-class solutions are still emerging, this role will give you significant room to make an impact.<\/p>\n\n<h4>What you'll do<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Own the future of Monitoring & Research at Lucidya<\/strong><br>\nYou'll define the vision, strategy, and roadmap across three key product areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Social listening<\/li>\n<li>Managed channels analytics<\/li>\n<li>Voice of Customer (VoC)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Your responsibility isn't simply delivering features.

decisions<\/strong><br>\nYou'll spend significant time understanding how customers currently make decisions, where they struggle to find trustworthy insights, and what prevents them from taking
