The Mission

Build product strategy and execution across portfolio companies by translating market needs into shipped products that drive measurable outcomes.

What You'll Do

• Conduct discovery and validation across 2-3 portfolio companies to identify customer needs, market gaps, and product opportunities.

• Translate strategic priorities into detailed product roadmaps with clear sequencing, success metrics, and resource requirements.

• Define and track leading and lagging indicators for shipped features and conduct post-launch analysis to validate business impact.

• Prototype and validate product concepts using wireframes, interactive prototypes, and user interviews before engineering investment.

• Map end-to-end user journeys for core workflows and identify friction points, automation opportunities, and integration capabilities.

• Partner with engineering to evaluate build vs. buy decisions and assess technical feasibility and long-term maintainability.

What We're Looking For

Must-haves

• Understand how APIs, webhooks, and third-party integrations work. Discuss technical constraints with engineering teams directly.

• Conduct user interviews, validate assumptions with data, and translate feedback into product requirements.

• Use prototyping tools like Figma or Framer to mock up user flows before development begins.

• Know what no-code automation tools, LLMs, and AI features can and cannot do. Evaluate when to build vs. integrate.

• Define success criteria upfront and adjust product decisions based on post-launch performance data.

Nice-to-haves

• Experience at a PE-backed firm, portfolio company, or scaling stage SaaS company.

• Track record launching multiple products from concept through customer adoption.

• Background in pricing strategy, packaging, or monetization decisions.

Who you are

• You identify product gaps and write one-pagers with recommendations before being asked.
• You own cross-functional initiatives stuck in ambiguity and drive alignment across functions to resolution.
• You track competitor releases and market trends, surfacing insights that shift your team's focus.
• You credit collaborators for shaping product decisions and visibly change recommendations when data contradicts your assumptions.
• You push back on shipping when edge cases or success criteria are unresolved, even under timeline pressure.
• You defined success metrics before development started, enabling fast iteration or rollback.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary commensurate with experience

• Remote work based in India

• Opportunity to build product capability across a portfolio of growing B2B SaaS companies
