About the role
- Holly is a seed-stage team of 20+ operators with deep roots in public service, civic tech, and AI.
- We've raised $10M from leading investors in government technology and the future of work and have grown over 100X in the last year.
- We center public servants and impact in every decision and we bring that same care to how we work here at Holly.
Responsibilities
- Translate ambiguous problems into clear, actionable specs and PRDs, giving engineers and designers the user context to build from without guessing.
- Prototype and iterate quickly with AI build tools - Claude (Artifacts / Claude Design), Lovable, v0, Figma, Cursor - to pressure-test workflows before committing engineering time.
- Drive product velocity.
- Co-own the product metrics that define whether a feature is working - adoption, engagement, time saved - and use them to decide what to double down on or cut.
- Build and maintain user personas that sharpen how the whole team understands government HR users - and use them to form hypotheses worth testing.
- Lead how Holly uses AI for product development (~20% of time).
- Partner with engineering.
- Help build AI into the product from the ground up, outlining AI-powered features to solve old problems in novel ways.
- Build internal tooling, reusable skills, or interesting automations that level up the team - everything from managing personal to dos to doing QA to ideating on new features.
- Write, test, and maintain the production system prompts behind Holly's AI features, and define how we measure "good" - building eval sets from real examples and iterating against them, not vibes.
Requirements
- The strongest candidates pair real product-building experience with hands-on AI fluency - people who turn AI into shipped product, not just decks - and feel the pull of the mission.
- 4-6+ years of product experience, with meaningful zero-to-one work - you've taken a product or major feature from nothing to live.
- Comfortable with data - you can get into the numbers yourself to find a signal, size a problem, or check whether a feature is working.
- You can use AI tools to write code - you understand code syntax, data structures, and how to prompt tools like Claude Code or Cursor effectively.
- You can produce production-ready code for simple UX changes yourself, and you know when to hand off more complex work to our engineering team.
Nice to have
- Govtech or public-sector experience is a strong plus.
Compensation
- $140k-$160k
