Desired Skills and Experience
- 5+ years of experience in product management, with a mandatory background in e-commerce
- Proven ability to manage senior stakeholders — including founders and cross-functional leadership — with clarity, confidence, and the ability to push back when needed

- Strong data fluency; able to synthesize information independently and make sound prioritization decisions
- Practical experience using AI tools to meaningfully improve product workflows and accelerate delivery
- Ability to lead group discussions, illustrate complex solutions, and communicate a product vision credibly to both technical and non-technical audiences
- High bar for quality across the full product lifecycle: user stories, UX review, technical approaches, and QA
- Ability to build wireframes and mockups with a bias toward simplicity
