What you’ll own 

Product strategy & market direction

• Own a point of view on where the product should go next, grounded in usage data, cohort behavior, and market context — not every roadmap item is equally worth building.
• Track the competitive landscape and the platforms the business depends on — retailers, affiliate networks, Instagram, TikTok — and flag roadmap implications before they become urgent.
• Bring evidence to the bigger calls already on the table, such as expanding beyond current affiliate networks, so they get decided deliberately rather than discussed ad hoc.

• Turn the backlog into a maintained, ranked roadmap with clear reasoning and sequencing. 
• Decide, epic by epic, what gets built next and why — including the trade-off against tech debt — and defend that call to both the business and engineering.

• Translate business requests, however they arrive, into epics and stories with real acceptance criteria. 
• Run refinement: prioritize epics, break them into stories, and bring the team specs worth estimating against. 
• Close out open product questions rather than letting them sit unanswered.

• Own and maintain the analytics metrics list. 
• Convert behavioral-analytics requirements into an event taxonomy and tracking plan. 
• Hold prioritization to the data — check the install-to-active funnel and early retention before committing engineering time to an onboarding redesign.

• Agree the sequencing of major technical work with the solution architect and project manager, so the roadmap reflects real dependencies. 
• Set release scope and proactively communicate the rationale to the business.

•  Know the systems well enough to engage properly — catalog, retailer and affiliate feeds, product matching, search, attribution, analytics, integrations — so technical decisions get product scrutiny before they’re made rather than after. 
• Work through scope, estimates and complexity with engineering on larger pieces: whether a simpler route fits the product’s stage, and what a build-vs-buy choice costs commercially. 
• Keep tech debt and dependencies visible in prioritization rather than letting them surface as surprises. 
• Translate technical risks and trade-offs into commercial implications so founders can decide without in-house technical expertise.

What we’re looking for

• 4+ years as a PM/PO in e-commerce, marketplaces, affiliate, or comparison commerce.
• B2C product experience, ideally mobile.
• Confident with product analytics: funnels, cohorts, retention, event tracking.
• Technical fluency with feeds, product matching, search, attribution, and integrations.
• Experience working with non-technical founders and translating tech trade-offs into business terms.
• Strong English, written and spoken.
