Job description

Position Title: Senior Product Owner / Head of Product Quality & Value

Reports to: Founder

Type: Full-Time | Remote
⸻

The Mission

You will be the guardian of product value — ensuring every release improves the user’s emotional experience, every feature feels intuitive and delightful, and every version of Wisdom and Boom gets closer to what our users didn’t know they needed.

You’ll live in the product daily, lead feature ideation, validate design with real users, run deep quality checks, and define what “high-quality, emotionally intelligent software” truly means.

⸻

Responsibilities

1. Product Ownership (End-to-End)

• Own feature ideation, testing, rollout, and iteration

• Align product roadmap with user pain points and emotional use cases

• Define clear success metrics (value, not vanity) for each release

2. Quality Assurance That Cares About Feelings

• Personally test each product build with emotional & UX intuition

• Catch bugs, awkward flows, dead ends — and prioritize what actually impacts users

• Collaborate closely with dev/design to push polish, delight, and finish

3. User Insight & Value Creation

• Run continuous user research: behavior analysis, micro-feedback, emotional signals

• Build “value reports” — what users love, ignore, or struggle with

• Shape features around what increases transformation, saves time, or reduces pain

4. Feature & Experience Strategy

• Prioritize features based on value creation (not complexity)

• Use a living feedback loop: prototype → test → learn → iterate

• Maintain a product board that blends emotion + impact

5. Team Sync & Communication

• Write clear specs that respect simplicity, design, and empathy

• Lead cross-functional alignment: founders, engineers, designers, marketing

• Share weekly product pulses: what’s working, what’s broken, what’s next

⸻

You Might Be a Fit If…

• You’ve shipped meaningful products from 0 to 1, and 1 to love

• You think in value, emotion, and quality before volume, complexity, or MVP checklists

• You live inside user experience — clicking, feeling, observing everything

• You understand both product intuition and user psychology

• You love clean, emotionally resonant UX and loathe “meh” software

⸻

Required Experience

• 3–5+ years as a Product Owner, Product Manager, or UX-obsessed founder/operator

• Experience managing full product cycles from idea to retention loops

• Background in B2C, AI tools, video/audio products, or mental health/emotional tech a big plus

• Tools: Figma, Notion, Jira, Mixpanel, Loom, Slack, Miro, user research tools

• Experience writing product specs, user stories, and prioritizing dev/design work

⸻

️ Bonus Points

• Deep understanding of emotional intelligence or relational dynamics (especially for Wisdom)

• Experience building async collaboration tools or creator-focused platforms (for Boom)

• You’ve worked with emotional AI, or studied behavior, cognition, therapy, or interaction design

⸻

What You’ll Help Build

• The world’s first emotionally responsive chat analyzer (Wisdom)

• The best free async video tool for creators, teams, and freelancers (Boom)

• A product people tell their friends about because it feels human, helpful, and healing
