Role in brief
AtlasOra is building on-chain settlement infrastructure, starting with travel. This Founding Product Manager role involves owning the product roadmap for both their marketplace and underlying protocol. It suits a product leader who thrives in ambiguous environments, can define processes, and has experience shipping products, ideally with some understanding of crypto.
About the role
This role focuses on developing the product interface for AtlasOra's marketplace and the underlying protocol. The company aims to disrupt traditional settlement methods by offering a more efficient on-chain solution. The initial focus is on the travel industry, with plans to expand into other sectors. The Product Manager will be instrumental in transforming the current marketplace into a leading platform by defining and executing the product strategy.
The position requires ownership of the product roadmap, encompassing both the user-facing marketplace for hosts and guests, and the foundational protocol surfaces related to settlement, payouts, and dispute resolution. This involves navigating the intersection of product development, financial considerations, and on-chain mechanics. The successful candidate will be responsible for defining key metrics and driving product improvements.
Working directly with the founders, this role operates without an existing product organization or established playbooks. It demands a proactive approach to building processes and shipping products with a lean team. Success in this position means frequently engaging with users, gathering evidence to inform decisions, and delivering tangible product outcomes that enhance the platform's functionality and user experience.
The annual salary for this role ranges from $60,000 to $120,000.
Who this role suits
- You have a track record of launching products that have been adopted by users.
- You are comfortable creating processes and structures rather than relying on existing ones.
- You possess a foundational understanding of cryptocurrency or can rapidly acquire this knowledge.
- You communicate clearly and make decisions efficiently.
