## About the role

We’re seeking a Founding Product Manager to join our technology team. This high-impact, high-visibility role is perfect for someone who thrives on building from scratch: someone who can create structure where there isn’t any, build conviction with incomplete information, and operate as a partner to our internal team and customers.

## What they're looking for

- Outcome-oriented, not output-oriented. You treat “I shipped the feature” and “the feature worked” as very different things, and you hold yourself accountable to the latter
- High agency, at home within ambiguity. You don’t wait for someone to hand you a process or a brief. The absence of a playbook energizes you. You build conviction from incomplete information and make the call
- Generative, then decisive. You’re the person who can brainstorm five wild ideas, and then pick the one that’s actually shippable. You’d rather make a strong call now than wait for perfection, but you know when to push for more input and when to trust your gut
- Opinionated out loud. You form a view on what we should build and why, and you put it on the table, including when it’s unpopular. When someone shows you better information, you change your mind fast. Once a call is made, you carry it like it was yours
- Collaborative and influential. You make complex trade-offs legible to engineers, ops, and leadership, and you get people aligned without grinding everything to a halt or burning bridges
- An eager adopter of new technology. You’re excited about AI tools and actively curious about what the PM role looks like when teams can build ten times faster
