R&D – Toronto, Ontario (Hybrid)
What we’re doing
We’re building the AI-powered coaching platform that transforms how gamers learn, compete, and win. Backed by a16z and $12M in funding, we’re live in 5 titles with 100K+ users, expanding rapidly into new games, hardware partnerships, and SDK integrations.
You’ll Thrive Here If…
- You’re energized by ambiguity and move fast to bring clarity where others stall.
- You get a rush from finding the simple, elegant solution to a messy, complex problem.
- You think like a GM//always asking how a product choice impacts revenue, growth, and user success.
- You’re creative at problem solving — able to structure messy problems, build frameworks, and beat ambiguity with clear, actionable paths forward.
Some things you’ll do

User discovery & insights

Talk to users, run surveys, and synthesize feedback into actionable insights.
-
Translate customer problems & business goals into clear, prioritized product requirements.
-
Analyze product usage patterns (SQL, Mixpanel) and connect insights directly to business outcomes.
-
Data-driven decision-making
-
Define success metrics, own dashboards/funnels/experiment readouts, and deliver decision-ready insights.
-
Size and scope opportunities using product data, market sizing, and an 80/20 lens to de-risk decisions quickly.
-
Identify opportunities to double down, design/run experiments (A/B tests, pilots), and present clear recommendations.
-
Product strategy & execution support
-
Surface & scope opportunities — investigate market pain points, partner with leadership on shaping strategy, then translate direction into scopes, specs, and cross-team execution.
-
Write scopes/specs, manage JIRA, and keep initiatives moving smoothly across Design/Eng/Marketing
-
Support launch plans, onboarding flows, rollout processes, and usage monitoring.
-
Connect product metrics to conversion, activation, retention, and revenue

- You avoid digging into data or SQL, being data informed is core to this role.
- You prefer long research cycles over shipping quickly and iterating.
