Our clients include several of the top 10 global private equity firms, Big 4 professional services firms, and leading consulting practices: organisations responsible for deploying billions of dollars annually.
We're a profitable, bootstrapped company with a growing team of ~44 people based in London and New York. We 10x'd our revenue in 2025 and are on track to grow 2-3x again this year. Junior saves clients an average of 10 hours per week, and we're expanding fast into new verticals including investment banking, hedge funds, and research firms.
💡 ROLE DESCRIPTION
We’re hiring our third Lead Product Manager to own the core research workflow and a help build a product team to build 0-1 add-on products. This is a high-ownership individual contributor role: you’ll run the day-to-day product execution loop - aligning with Customer Success, users, engineering and design on specs and tradeoffs, driving QA, and shipping frequently. The right person will have an opportunity to grow into a leadership role as the company grows.
✅ WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Own the roadmap and execution for the core research workflow
- Work closely with Customer Success and users to understand workflows, pain points, and what “great” looks like
- Partner with Engineering + Design to prioritize, scope, and ship quickly
- Drive QA and release readiness: testing plans, bug triage, launch checklists, and iteration plans
- Keep stakeholders aligned (founders, engineering, design, CS) through lightweight, high-signal communication
- Join sales and CS calls to demo the product and new features, explain capabilities clearly, and translate customer needs into product priorities
📈 WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
- Shipping velocity increases (more high-quality releases, faster iteration loops) - goal is to ship 1 major new feature per week
- Adoption of new features and modules improves (users discover them, use them, and keep using them)
- Customer responsiveness improves (faster feedback → clearer decisions → shipped fixes and improvements)
🔧 SAMPLE SET OF PROJECTS
- Interview guide generation: understand how teams create structured interview guides at the start of each project; define the right structure and workflow; work with design / engineering on an AI-assisted guide creation experience; iterate with users on prototype, roll out, drive awareness, and measure usage.
- Live transcription: work with users and CS to validate the need for faster transcript access and higher visibility during calls; align with engineering on feasibility and approach; partner with design on how to surface live transcripts; pilot with early users, plan rollout, and track usage metrics.
- Call anonymization: work with consulting clients and CS to surface current process of manually creating anonymized versions of transcripts; define what specific parts must be anonymized; partner with design/engineering to implement the anonymization flow make it easily discoverable / intuitive - then run customer testing, QA the release, launch, and track adoption/usage.
🔥 ABOUT YOU
- 5+ years of experience shipping SaaS products in fast-moving teams (B2B is a plus, strong B2C also welcomed)
- Strong product execution: make good tradeoffs, unblock teams, focus on MVP and ship often
- You have built something 0→1 and can clearly walk us through what you owned end-to-end — from problem discovery and MVP scope through launch, iteration, and impact.
- You’re close to customers and comfortable working directly with users and senior stakeholders. You will be selling products.
- You’re a builder: you’re happy to get into the details and use Claude Code / Codex to make tweaks.
- You prefer low ceremony / high accountability and avoid process-for-process’ sake
- Excellent written and verbal communication
- NYC-based and excited to work 5 days per week in-office
- Bonus but not required: you have worked in a large consulting firm in the past
