Product Manager, New Initiatives
ABOUT US
We simplify complex public records so millions of people can find what they need, fast. We're AI-forward, performance-driven, and remote-first — with a global team that moves with the speed and clarity of a company hungry to win. We don't manage hours. We build outcomes.
THE ROLE
This isn't a research role. You're not handing off a report and waiting. You're the driver — deciding what to build, sequencing the work, pulling in the right people, and making the call. You'll work across entirely new markets and product categories, and you'll move fast without losing rigor.
Right now, that means things like evaluating market entry across international geographies, designing lightweight MVPs to validate demand, and delivering a clear go/no-go recommendation backed by real data — not hedged possibilities.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Take new products and market opportunities from initial idea through validation to a committed go/no-go recommendation.
- Design and sequence MVP tests — deciding what's worth building, how to build it lean, and what to cut.
- Determine what to handle yourself and what to delegate. Pull in dev, design, and ops as collaborators, not order-takers.
- Define the metrics upfront. Know exactly what a result needs to show to justify a full build — or to stop.
- Identify the hardest obstacle in each initiative and find a credible path through it, not around it.
- Communicate clearly: data-backed updates, early flags, no spin.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- You've launched or tested something new — a product, a market, a line of business — and owned the outcome.
- You think in sequences: what needs to happen first, what can run in parallel, what's a trap.
- You know when to build something yourself and when to bring in the right person. You don't let either become an excuse.
- AI-native. You use it constantly, across every type of work — research, synthesis, scoping, communication. Not optional.
- You write and communicate with precision. Your updates don't require translation.
- You've worked in a fast-moving, outcomes-driven environment and thrived — not survived.
WHAT WE OFFER
- Salary range $160,000- $180,000 annually
- Fully remote with quarterly team meetups in Las Vegas
- Unlimited PTO — no hour tracking, no performance theater
- $25,000 EV credit + home solar panels
- A team that moves fast, decides with data, and doesn't confuse activity with progress
Skills Required
- Proven experience launching or testing new products, markets, or lines of business and owning outcomes
- Ability to design and sequence MVP tests and define success metrics
- Strong cross-functional collaboration with engineering, design, and operations
- AI-native: regular use of AI tools across research, synthesis, scoping, and communication
- Exceptional written and verbal communication with precise, data-backed updates
- Experience working in fast-moving, outcomes-driven environments
