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.
