Full Job Description
Key Responsibilities
  • MVP Scoping & Definition: Take high-level, ambiguous business concepts and ruthlessly prioritize them into a lean, actionable Minimum Viable Product (MVP) specification.
  • Backlog Architecture & Execution: Build the product backlog from scratch. Write crystal-clear user stories, define acceptance criteria, and run efficient sprint cycles to keep engineering moving fast.
  • Cross-Functional Execution: Serve as the central hub connecting Engineering, Design, and Leadership. Ensure the design team isn't over-engineering UI and the development team is building the right core architecture.
  • 0-to-1 Risk Management: Identify technical, design, and market risks early. Pivot fast when technical blockers arise without losing sight of the launch deadline.
  • Go-To-Market Ready: Partner with marketing and operations to prepare the product for its first wave of real users, establishing the initial analytics and feedback loops.

Requirements

The 0-to-1 Builder: Proven experience taking a digital product from absolute concept to public launch in a startup or high-growth environment.

Ruthless Prioritization: The ability to say "no" to good ideas so you can focus on the vital ideas required for launch.

High Technical Literacy: You aren't coding, but you deeply understand web/mobile architecture, APIs, and technical trade-offs. You can hold your own in a room full of engineers.

Design Partnership: Strong collaboration skills with UX/UI designers. You know how to guide design sprint cycles without stifling creativity.

Startup Grit: You thrive when resources are tight, deadlines are real, and guidelines don't exist. You create the process; you don't wait for one.

Benefits

  • Extreme Autonomy: We value output over hours.
  • Global Scale: Lead a product that is touched by thousands of players every day across a worldwide landscape.
  • A Culture of Momentum: Join a team that moves at the speed of light. You will be constantly challenged to innovate, scale, and outperform the market.
  • High-Growth Upside: We value "potential over pedigree." For a builder who takes extreme ownership, there is a clear runway to shape the entire product organization.
