[Hiring] Product Co-Founder | Competitive Intelligence AI Platform @IndustryLens

Role Description

We're building the next generation of competitive intelligence for B2B SaaS companies. While most CI tools dump overwhelming data on users, we're creating connected storylines that predict competitor moves and deliver actionable strategic insights.

• Product Discovery & Strategy
  • Conduct deep customer discovery to validate/refine our ICP and value proposition
  • Transform our categorization framework from "urgency + impact" to "connected storylines over time"
  • Design the product experience that makes competitive intelligence feel like having a strategic analyst on your team
  • Define and measure product-market fit metrics
• AI/Data Product Development
  • Evolve our single-prompt AI analysis into multi-stage reasoning that connects data points across time
  • Design pattern recognition features that surface "what this means" not just "what happened"
  • Work with our tech co-founder to improve insight quality through better prompting and data models
  • Build feedback loops that make our AI smarter over time
• Go-to-Market & Revenue
  • Develop product-led growth strategies to convert trial users to paying customers

• Comfortable with AI products - understand LLM capabilities, prompt engineering, and how to build products that get smarter over time
• Builder mentality - you can move fast, make decisions with incomplete information, and iterate based on feedback

Benefits

• 15-25% equity (based on experience and time commitment)
• 4-year vesting with 1-year cliff
• Potential for salary once we reach revenue milestones
• Equal co-founder decision-making authority on product direction

Working Style

• Part-time acceptable initially (20-30 hrs/week) with path to full-time
• Remote-friendly (European time zones preferred)
• Collaborative culture with tech + commercial co-founders
