About the Company

A profitable, founder-led business with a decade in its industry. The company has built long-term relationships with leading global consumer brands, delivering services at scale. It is now entering a growth phase, expanding its technology platform built on proprietary data, enterprise relationships, and deep category expertise into a subscription-based, AI-native SaaS product designed for large organisations.

This is a zero-to-one moment for a business that already has the customers, credibility, and commercial foundation to succeed.

The Role

The product team uses AI-native tooling to go from requirement to working product in days, not months. A Product Builder owns the full lifecycle: understanding what a customer actually needs, shaping the right solution, and shipping it. The role sits at the intersection of disciplines that used to require three separate people.

No handoff. No ticket queue.

What You'll Do

• Own discovery to delivery: Join customer and stakeholder calls, extract the real requirement underneath the stated one, then build it
• Build with AI-native tools: Use tools like Claude Code, Cursor, and equivalents to ship working software fast; know when to generate, when to edit, when to reason from first principles
• Make product decisions under uncertainty: Scope features sensibly, make the right speed/correctness tradeoffs, know when to ship and when not to
• Test and hold quality: Think adversarially about your own work; cover edge cases, write tests, catch bugs before users do

What They're Looking For

Your primary instinct should be product; you think in users, workflows, and outcomes first. You need enough technical depth to understand tradeoffs, know what's genuinely hard, and actually build. You don't need to be a senior engineer. xwzovoh You need to have built things and not be intimidated by code you didn't write.

Technical familiarity required across:

• Frontend vs backend tradeoffs
• REST APIs and data models
• Databases and data modelling basics
• Caching strategies
• Deployment environments (staging, production, CI/CD)
• UI component libraries
• Authentication flows
• Performance fundamentals

Nice to have:

• Startup shipping experience
• Comfort with ambiguity
• Side projects you actually finished
• Opinions about what makes software feel good
• Experience in creator economy / social media platforms
