Job description

The Opportunity
A fast-moving team at the forefront of influencer marketing is looking for a founding Product Manager to help shape the future of its AI-powered platform. As the first product hire, you'll take ownership of the roadmap, oversee end-to-end product delivery, and play a key role in hiring the founding engineer. You'll collaborate closely with leadership, designers, and subject matter experts to build out a scalable, modular system from the ground up.

This is a hands-on, builder-first role - perfect for someone who's worked from concept to MVP, thrives in ambiguity, and enjoys transforming complex datasets and workflows into impactful, user-friendly products.

What You'll Be Responsible For

Roadmap Development: Partner with product leads to define and evolve key build phases - from automation tools to insight engines and client-facing features.

Agile Execution: Lead sprint planning, backlog management, and team rituals. Maintain velocity and alignment.

Cross-Functional Leadership: Bridge communication between design, engineering, operations, and execs to keep delivery on track.

Hiring Partner: Drive recruitment for the first technical hire - from defining the role to evaluating candidates.

Data-Led Product Discovery: Analyze operational data and workflows to identify opportunities. Work with domain experts to define MVPs.

Platform Architecture: Advocate for modular design, smart tooling, and efficient use of build-vs-buy decisions.

Feedback Loops: Establish continuous feedback systems with internal teams to iterate and validate effectively.

AI Integration: Translate AI/LLM opportunities into clear product features and specs from day one.

What You Bring

Essential:

  • 4-7 years in product management, preferably in high-growth or startup environments
  • Demonstrated success delivering 0→1 products, ideally with lean, modular tech stacks
  • Comfortable working on AI/ML products and collaborating with technical teams
  • Strong data instincts and experience in data-rich product environments
  • Excellent product judgment, able to balance short-term goals with long-term vision
  • Solid experience with agile methodologies and sprint planning
  • Clear communicator, adept at managing cross-functional stakeholders

Bonus Points:

  • Background in marketing tech, influencer platforms, or the creator economy
  • Experience in SaaS or platform products from agency or PLG settings
  • Exposure to hiring or team building in product or engineering

Why Join Now

  • Ground-Up Impact: Help shape the foundation of a platform-first evolution
  • High Autonomy: Your product decisions will have real influence on direction and strategy
  • User-Embedded Development: Work closely with internal teams who face these challenges every day
  • Modular Approach: Help design a system built for scale, not a one-size-fits-all solution
  • AI at the Core: Be part of building AI-native tools from the very start
