About the role

  • You own the entire early merchant funnel—from category-aligned landing pages through sign-up, onboarding, deal launch, and product activation.
  • You design, ship, and iterate on UI/UX flows fast.
  • You build proof-of-concept and proof-of-execution prototypes to validate ideas quickly.
  • You define event schemas, success metrics, and analysis plans upfront—not after launch.
  • Every initiative you lead ties directly to revenue impact, churn reduction, or margin improvement.
  • You operate on short experiment cycles, not monthly roadmaps.

Requirements

  • 6–8 years of product management experience, with 2+ years in AI/ML or automation-forward product work
  • Hands-on with modern AI tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent) for rapid prototyping and validation
  • Experience designing and running controlled experiments (LaunchDarkly, GrowthBook, or equivalent)
  • Strong instrumentation and analytics skills—defining event schemas, funnels, cohorts, and success metrics in tools like PostHog, Mixpanel, Amplitude, or similar
  • Fluent in data analysis (SQL minimum; Python preferred)
  • Proven track record of shipping under ambiguity and making decisions with incomplete information.
Benefits
  • Health insurance
  • 401(k) matching
  • Flexible work hours
  • Paid time off
  • Remote work options
