Our Dazzle (that's our team!) 🦓Fun fact: A group of zebras is called a dazzle – and ours truly is dazzling!
We create a culture in which our team thrives and gallops ahead.
As we roam free and empower our dazzle, we gallop ahead on the journey to achieving our goals. We understand this journey will pose challenges along the way, yet we brighten the trail with our positive mindset and encouragement of others. The dazzle continuously moves, gaining knowledge and skills so that we can graze new grounds.
What you'll be doingYou’ll be at the heart of our AI-Augmented Delivery (AAD) crew, helping to shape how we imagine, build, and validate products in this new paradigm. This is a unique opportunity to not only bring a new product to life, but also to pioneer the very ways in which product teams of the future will operate with AI woven into every step.
- Phase 1 (first 4 weeks): You’ll lead discovery and ideation for an agentic feature of our recruiter-focused product, while the engineering crew delivers the first phase of the core product (an AI Notetaker). You’ll spend time digging into user problems, framing opportunities, and testing bold ideas at speed. You’ll run lightweight experiments, explore workflows, and translate insights into clear hypotheses that set the direction for the team. By the end of this phase, you’ll have sharpened the vision for what we build next and created the momentum to move fast into delivery.
- Phase 2 (next 6 weeks): You’ll shift gears into making it real. Working side by side with a part-time designer and two engineers, you’ll take concepts from discovery into delivery. You’ll own prioritisation, break down complex ideas into lean, testable increments, and map user journeys, use cases, and edge cases to ensure we’re solving the right problems with clarity. You’ll collaborate daily with the crew to balance ambition with pragmatism, keeping us laser-focused on delivering value quickly. And as we ship at speed, you’ll also play a hands-on role in quality control, making sure what we deliver is not just fast, but trusted and impactful.
Throughout both phases, you’ll be empowered to make decisions, cut through ambiguity, and keep us moving forward at pace. You’ll have the space to experiment with AI-augmented workflows and lean practices, shaping not just what we deliver but how we deliver it. This means pushing the boundaries of product management itself, reducing coordination costs, testing new ways of working, and proving that small, empowered crews can deliver outsized impact. Above all, you’ll keep users at the centre of every decision, ensuring the product we build is both innovative and deeply valuable
