Requirements

What you’ll need

Experience: 1 to 3 years of experience in product development, project coordination, or working within Agile/Scrum teams, specifically with software, platform, or web-based products. Experience in a related analytical or technology role will also be considered.
Technical Acumen: Jira is the primary tool; Confluence is a plus. Experience with Rally or equivalent Agile platforms is acceptable. Basic familiarity with the software development lifecycle is expected.
AI Fluency: Hands-on experience using AI tools — such as Claude, ChatGPT, or similar platforms — for prototyping, design exploration, or accelerating product workflows. Comfort applying AI tools practically in a product context is expected.
Domain Comfort: Comfortable working within complex domains, including finance or venture capital concepts. You don't need to arrive as an expert, but you must be willing and able to learn quickly.
Communication Skills: Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to convey ideas clearly to engineers, stakeholders, and teammates.
People Skills: Friendly, curious, and emotionally intelligent. You build rapport easily — especially with engineers — adapt to various personalities and bring energy that improves team dynamics.
Self-Starter Mentality: You take initiative, ask questions to fill knowledge gaps, and demonstrate resourcefulness.
Resilience & Adaptability: Comfortable operating within shifting priorities and frequent pivots. Open to feedback and quick to adapt, you see ambiguity as a normal part of a fast-paced environment.
Analytical Skills: Ability to gather and interpret information to support product decisions and backlog prioritization. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are prioritized over deep analytics.
Education: A bachelor's degree in business, computer science, or a related field is preferred — but equivalent work experience is welcomed.
