Job Description

Product Manager

R&D – St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador (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

  • Embed yourself into gamer communities (Reddit, Discord, conferences) to surface real user needs and trends.

  • 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

Skills You’ll Bring

  • Product & business foundation
    • 2+ years of PM experience at a product-driven tech company, owning meaningful product surface area (B2C a plus)
    • 2+ years in investment banking, strategy consulting, or a similar analytical/business role

  • Analytical & strategic
    • Strong ability to structure ambiguous problems, form hypotheses, design/interpret experiments, and make data-driven decisions
    • GM-like mindset with awareness of how product connects to revenue, growth models, pricing, and go-to-market

  • Execution & product sense
    • Nice to have – Shipped AI-powered products or features (LLMs, recommendation engines, intelligent automation)
    • Ability to deconstruct visions into clear, actionable roadmaps that align with company objectives

  • Mindset & communication
    • Ownership-first, bias-to-action, thrives in early-stage/high-urgency environments
    • Deep user empathy, first-principles thinker, obsessed with simple, elegant solutions
    • Excellent communicator who can turn chaos into clarity and align stakeholders

You WILL NOT enjoy this role if

  • You need a rigid playbook or lots of hand-holding — this is a fast-moving startup with shifting priorities.
  • 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.
  • You’re uncomfortable making decisions with incomplete information.
  • You aren’t naturally hyper-organized you’ll be expected to keep metrics, JIRA, specs, and experiments tidy and up-to-date so the team can move fast.
  • You don’t play video games
