Why We Hire

The Store AI Solution Section is driving two pillars of business, crime prevention solutions and multi-camera tracking (MCT), both centered on behavior detection using AI cameras. As the business grows, we are filling a vacancy for a Project Manager who bridges business requirements and development, and we are looking for someone who will also define and launch the product management function itself within the team.

Set development priorities in line with business objectives, and move the product forward through equal-footing discussions with external development partners. Will you help us shape the mindset and way of working to do that?

The business has just launched a new service, so you can define the team's new product management function yourself and create its standard way of working.

・You will discuss development priorities and the roadmap in close contact with the head of the business.
・You will gain experience discussing and negotiating on equal footing with specialized external development partners.


・You can experience everything end to end, from business requirements to requirements definition, development and quality management, and build your career as a manager who leads product development.
・This is an ideal environment for those who want to pivot from a tech-oriented career toward a more business-oriented role.


Through initiatives with Rakuten Group companies and their store networks, you can be involved in creating new AI camera solutions.
