How You Fit In
We’re an international team of Product Managers managing different aspects of our end-to-end process: Discovery, Design, Engineering and Scale.
We’re looking for PMs who want to hit the ground running in the first weeks, and help us in upgrading our processes and standards as we go. We need people with experience who can drop their egos and deliver results with a smile. This would not be a good first role in tech, but it’d be a great role for someone looking to leverage their experience in a startup-like environment.
