 Overview
We're looking for a business-minded, execution-driven leader to take on a key role spanning product strategy, operations, and creative execution. This person will work closely with the founder to shape the future of a growing SaaS business, and take meaningful ownership of core initiatives across product, design, and team workflow.
You’re someone who can think in systems, execute in detail, and lead with both strategic vision and hands-on action. You’ll help us turn ideas into products, products into value, and momentum into outcomes.
This is a high-trust, high-impact role for someone with the mindset of a co-founder and the skill set of a business operator and product strategist.

 Ideal Background
MBA or equivalent business and strategic training, preferably with exposure to technology or startups
Strong familiarity with how SaaS businesses are built, launched, and scaled
Experience working across product, operations, and strategy, not just managing tasks — but shaping what gets built and why

 You Might Be a Fit If…
You bring both business rigor and product intuition

You see ambiguity as opportunity — and bring structure where others freeze
You want to build something meaningful and grow with it long-term

 Extra Alignment (Not Requirements)
Experience launching or growing a product from early stage
Familiarity with startup dynamics or founder-led teams
A background in consulting, product ops, or creative project leadership
Ability to context-switch between high-level strategy and in-the-weeds detail
---
 Why This Role Is Unique
You’ll play a central role in shaping product, business, and team operations
High ownership, autonomy, and creative input — your ideas will directly influence outcomes
A rare opportunity to build deeply and broadly, with long-term growth potential
Flexible, remote work culture with room for evolution and leadership
