Posted on April 21, 2026

We’re looking for exceptional Technical Product Leads to help shape what we build and why.

This is a highly technical, user-focused product role for people who want to work closely with both customers and builders to influence product direction. The scope will evolve with the product and team.

What you'll do

Talk directly to customers to understand how they use the product and where it falls short

Build a deep understanding of user workflows, especially in data-heavy environments

Identify and clearly define the most important problems to solve

Turn those insights into clear proposals for product direction

Move across engineering teams, focusing on where context is most useful

Work closely with engineers and design to shape solutions and tradeoffs

Bring clarity to ambiguous problems so teams can move quickly and make good decisions

How this role fits

Product is led directly by our CEO. You’ll work closely with him, along with engineering and design leadership, to shape direction and priorities.

Technical Product Leads contribute to roadmap discussions and help guide what gets built through strong problem definition and customer insight. Engineering Managers plan and execute the work.

What we’re looking for

Strong technical foundation (e.g., engineering or similarly technical experience)

Hands-on experience working with data tools (e.g., querying, modeling, or building with data)

Ability to understand user needs and translate them into clear problem definitions

Strong product judgment - what’s worth solving, what isn’t, and why

Comfortable working closely with engineers on feasibility and tradeoffs

Able to operate with high judgment in ambiguous environments

Clear thinker and communicator, especially when simplifying complex ideas

You should be able to quickly build context, form strong opinions, and contribute at a high level.

Additional strengths

Experience working on data-heavy or technical products

Experience building or leading complex projects or initiatives
