• Move forward with imperfect information: form hypotheses, test them quickly, and adjust. 🚀 Strategy & priorities
• Turn the product vision into concrete initiatives for your perimeter, and own your roadmap.
• Make the trade-offs: decide what to do now, what to do later, and what not to do, and explain why to stakeholders. ⚡️ Delivery
• Steer your squad rather than doing everything yourself: frame the problem, align the team, unblock, review.
• Prototype quickly with AI tools (like Claude Design) to explore ideas and test them with users and the squad, before the designer takes them to the final UI.

• By month 6: your releases have a measurable impact, your squad runs smoothly with you steering it, and stakeholders trust your trade-offs. Who we're looking for
• 3+ years of experience as a Product Manager, ideally in B2B SaaS.
• No ego: you care more about the right answer than about being right.
• You're resourceful: you don't wait for perfect data or a perfect brief to move forward.
• You take initiative, and you're genuinely curious about product and tech: you follow trends, read about what other products ship, try new tools, and bring ideas back to the team.
