Computer VisionProduct StrategyM&A
About the role
- The product is at its earliest stage, and we mean that as a selling point.
- This is a high-ownership, founding-in-nature seat.
- You'll spend as much time with field workers and customers as you do at a whiteboard, and the loop between the two is where the best product decisions will come from.
Responsibilities
- Obsess over craft and design: make the calls on what to build, what to cut, and what "good" actually looks like.
- Set the bar for how product gets done here, and build the team beneath you as we grow.
- the physical world is starved for labor while demand for building and infrastructure keeps climbing.
- Build genuinely good systems for it and you don't shrink the workforce - you grow it.
- That's the wealth we're trying to create, and we're starting in Canada with room to expand internationally over time.
- Between us, the founding team has built and run construction-tech businesses at real scale (think $100M in revenue and 600+ people), invested as venture capitalists, led M&A for public companies, designed novel deal structures and joint ventures, run manufacturing lines, and started companies of our own - some that worked, some that taught us a lot.
- We're not looking for a traditional product manager to tend a backlog - we're looking for an entrepreneur who will dive into this product and obsess over it like it's their own company.
- not toward a demo, but into real field operations for businesses we own.
- This Is Not For You If… You need a fully scoped backlog before you can move, rather than building the roadmap as you go.
Requirements
- We don't roll everything up under one brand - we preserve each company's local name, its autonomy, and the hard-won knowledge of the operators who built it.
- You'll shape what the product becomes and, to a large degree, what this role becomes.
Nice to have
- high-level strategy one hour, pixel- and workflow-level detail the next.
- You'd rather be close to real users in the real world than behind a desk theorizing about them.
- Nice to Haves Exposure to the physical or built world - construction, trades, field services, logistics.
- A track record taking a product from zero to its first real users.
Benefits
- Competitive salary plus meaningful equity and benefits.
- Someone with real taste and a keen eye for design, the structure to build and hold a roadmap, and the creative, entrepreneurial instinct to invent what doesn't exist yet.
- Own the product vision and roadmap from a near-blank page - turn the messy reality of field operations into something people genuinely want to use.
- More work, better jobs, better pay, better benefits, and a better life for the frontline workers who keep everyday life running and who've been overlooked by technology for decades.
Company info
- Get into the field with our customers and their crews, and turn what you learn on-site into product.
