Description
handly is an early stage, VC backed company building an AI first operating system for craft businesses. We recently raised €3.75m from 20VC, Stride and Base10 and are building a small, performant team with high ownership and high trust.
We are looking for a **Product Manager** who wants real responsibility: shaping product direction, making decisions with imperfect information, shipping themselves and working hands on with engineering to ship fast and learn faster. This is not a process heavy PM role. It is a builder role.
## Tasks
- Own product direction end to end, from understanding user problems to shaping solutions and shipping them
- Translate company goals into clear product bets, priorities, and tradeoffs
- Work very closely with engineering to scope, design and ship features and iterate quickly
- Make product decisions with incomplete data and course correct when needed
- Develop a deep understanding of users, workflows, and real world constraints
- Bring clarity to the team on what we are building, why, and what done means
- Help shape how product work happens at handly as we scale
## Requirements
This role is about **how you work**, not just where you worked.
You should strongly identify with most of the following:
- High agency. You take ownership, push things forward, and do not wait for permission
- AI native mindset. You actively use AI tools and think in AI first product patterns
- Strong technical understanding and ability to reason about systems and constraints
- Good product taste and a clear opinion on what makes a product great
- You care about UX and details, even if you are not a trained designer
- Comfortable making decisions with imperfect or incomplete information
- Comfortable being wrong and correcting course quickly
- Experience in fast paced, early stage environments
- Side projects or things you have built on your own are a strong plus
**Language requirement**
- Fluent German (spoken and written). The product interface is fully in German and most of our partners communicate exclusively in German.
- Fluent English for internal communication.
We care more about how you think and act than years of PM experience.
## Benefits
**In-office daily:** Berlin-Mitte, modern light-filled workspace with a large balcony
- **Velocity:** fast loops, direct feedback, no management layers
- **Growth:** as much responsibility as you can handle
- **Team:** tight, ambitious group that enjoys building hard things together
- **Focus:** No stand-ups and only two short meetings per week
If this sounds like your kind of role, we would love to talk.
Our process is simple and fast:
- Intro call
- Conversation with [Basti](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bastianmeyer)
- Practical discussion around product thinking and collaboration with [Kais](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kais-sghari)
- On site session with [Kais](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kais-sghari), [Basti](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bastianmeyer) and [Alain](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alain-paluku). Whiteboarding, product and culture focus (half day)
No lengthy case studies. No drawn out process.
