  • Product Strategy : Translate business needs into creative software solutions, producing product briefs and vision documents that inspire action.
  • Project Leader : Lead cross-functional teams using agile methodologies—scrum, sprint planning, retros, backlog management.
  • Prototype : Rapidly prototype products up to ~75% completion using low-code / no-code tools (e.g., Lovable, Bubble, Airtable) and AI-assisted workflows.
  • Innovation : Stay ahead of the curve on how generative AI can be embedded into apps, CRMs, and databases to deliver competitive advantages.
  • Communication : Manage stakeholders across time zones with clear, engaging communication in a fully remote environment.

What We’re Looking For

  • 7+ years in product management, project management, or similar roles—at least several years in a senior / lead role.
  • Proven success delivering digital products (ideally in an agency or client-facing environment).
  • Deep familiarity with generative AI, automation, CRM platforms, and database-driven products.
  • Hands-on proficiency with no-code / low-code platforms and AI-powered prototyping.
  • Strong grasp of agile frameworks and experience running distributed, cross-functional teams.
  • Excellent communication skills—capable of simplifying complex ideas and keeping clients engaged and aligned.
  • Technical fluency : comfortable discussing architecture, APIs, and trade-offs with engineers.
