  • Develop its holistic product and ensure the company’s long term vision, strategy and goals are represented on the product roadmap and daily product discovery and delivery

  • Discover what should get built and determine what’s delivered to customers before actually committing resources to building it

  • Tackle risks upfront by validating and testing them with users, customers, data and/or the market

  • Have a couple of years of experience working for a small company in a product team of developers and designers

  • Believe successful products are a result of interdisciplinary and open collaboration, as opposed to the whip and waterfall

🥂 To manage a category-creating and fast-growing software-hardware product with near zero churn and a strong existing client base from 5* boutique hotels to the likes of Marriott and Accor

🤝 To work with an innovate product team of developers and a designer, and report directly to our cofounder-CEO and ensure the product of the company is loved by customers but also works for the vision and goals of the business
