What you’ll be doing

We’re looking for a talented and experienced Product Owner who manages the full scope of our B2B SaaS tool, guiding it from MVP to a fully matured product.

The product has the following components in the web-based portal (front):

• Self-serve onboarding

• Connection to Git providers (GitHub, GitLab, BitBucket)

• Contributors management (ie. engineers in the customer org) & permissions management (ie. users accessing the portal)

• Data visualization (charts and graphs) showing software engineering productivity insights for management-level audiences

What are the role requirements?

• Take full ownership in building and improving the product, iteratively evolving it from MVP to a more mature product & beyond

• Define, implement, and update product management best practices by creating new processes instead of depending on existing ones

• Improve & create new visualizations for the data that effectively present information, understanding the different users (C-level vs Managers/Team Leads) and their requirements/preferences

• Serve as the user advocate in product, collecting direct feedback from customers to ensure their needs and preferences are reflected in our solution

• Ensure that our products are built to handle growth and deliver optimal performance

• Create structured & prioritized specs for each initiative that later get turned into tickets

• Develop a B2B product that appeals to both technical and business audiences

TL;DR: Silicon Valley startup looking for a Product Owner for its B2B SaaS product: measuring & improving the productivity of software engineers - backed by Stanford research.

About the Startup

We’re building a new way to measure & improve the productivity of software engineers.

We help company leaders make data-driven decisions about their software engineering teams. Through partnership with researchers at Stanford, we’ve developed a novel algorithm that measures each engineer’s productivity by analyzing & quantifying their source code contributions.

We provide precise data on software teams’ performance, enabling better decision-making that results in productivity optimization and internal/external benchmarking for the >30M software engineers worldwide.

• Backed by research at Stanford University: working together with world-class professors at Stanford to build & calibrate the algorithm

  • Accepted into top Stanford Accelerator:

    • 92% of startups still growing/acquired over past 10yrs

    • 12% unicorn ratio
