Job description

Product Lead (Strategy + Full Stack)

Do you want to join the company behind Northern Europe’s largest crypto and stock market comparison platforms? Do you want to own the product roadmap end to end and build it yourself? Do you want to decide what we build next as we expand globally?

We’re looking for a hands‑on Product Lead to join our small but driven 100% remote team. This is a rare hybrid role: roughly 60% product leadership (roadmap, prioritization, specs, analytics) and 40% full stack development. You’ll work alongside our full-stack web developer, and as we expand the Product Team, your focus will shift increasingly toward product and team leadership, running 1-on-1s, recruiting, and building your own team to improve our products, with a clear path toward Head of Product.

Optimizee Group has been delivering results for 450+ partners worldwide through financial comparison platforms since 2017. Our portfolio includes CryptoRunner.com (the largest cryptocurrency comparison platform in Northern Europe), InvestoRunner.com (the largest stock market comparison platform in Sweden), and CreditRunner.com (a new credit card comparison platform launching soon).

Our mission is to build the world’s biggest and most trusted portfolio of financial comparison platforms, helping millions of people make better financial decisions. To date, we’ve generated over 8 million views and delivered more than 1.8 million referrals to our partners. With approximately 44,000 monthly active users and 35,000+ subscribers, you’ll have a strong existing audience and foundation to build on.

In 2026, we relaunched our websites on fully custom-built platforms, replacing our previous WordPress setup (see full tech stack below). The new platforms are connected to our in-house admin system, with integrations to multiple AI models and third-party API providers, giving us greater flexibility, scalability, and control as we grow. AI is deeply integrated into the admin system and across development, content, and operations. Over the past year we’ve shipped 970+ updates, and our product backlog holds 350+ tasks. Your job: review our platforms and product backlog, decide what to prioritize, and turn ideas into new features — with direct support from the founder, a former web developer who built our first platforms line by line.

• Be Part of a Market Leader – Help shape our established platforms, our group includes the largest stock and crypto comparison platforms in Northern Europe.
• Full Ownership, Real Impact – High autonomy, meaningful ownership, and the opportunity to influence company decisions.
