The role
We're hiring Product Managers to own sharp, consequential problems at Apna. You'll work on a charter for a quarter or two, ship hard, and then take on the next one. You'll operate with real independence, with AI in your toolkit from day one, and with direct access to senior product and functional leadership.
This is not a role for aspiring PMs looking to break in. It's a role for PMs who've shipped a few things, want more runway, and want to do their best work yet.
Requirement: 1
Title: Product Manager
Location: Domlur, Bangalore (Work from Office | 5 days week)
Experience: 3+ years
Industry: B2C (marketplace)
Requirements
What You'll Do:
- Own a charter end-to-end — frame the problem, define success, ship, measure, iterate
- Move across different parts of the business over time; strong PMs here rotate through high-impact problems rather than sit on one surface forever
- Build with AI in the loop — in your discovery, in your design process, and in the product itself
- Work directly with engineering, design, analytics, and functional partners (sales, ops, growth)
- Bring strong customer and data instincts to decisions; know when to ship and when to kill
- Real ownership on problems that move the business — not a slot in someone else's roadmap
What we're looking for
- 3+ years of hands-on PM experience at a scaled consumer internet company
- You've shipped products, not just written specs. You can walk us through what you built, why, and what happened
- Sharp problem solver — you break messy problems into first-principles pieces
- High agency: You find the next thing to do before someone tells you
- AI-native, not AI-curious. You're already using AI day-to-day, in your workflow and in what you ship
- Strong customer, product, and business sense
- Self-starter. Comfortable with ambiguity and rotating across problem spaces
- Clean communicator and collaborator
Skills Required
- 3+ years of hands-on PM experience at a scaled consumer internet company
- Proven track record of shipping products (not just writing specs)
- Strong problem-solving skills; break messy problems into first principles
- High agency and self-starter mentality
- AI-native: using AI day-to-day in workflow and products
- Strong customer, product, and business sense
- Comfortable with ambiguity and rotating across problem spaces
- Clear communication and collaboration skills
