Flexible and adaptable : You' 0re comfortable with ambiguity and changing direction quickly when the evidence points that way. You' 0t married to your own ideas
Hands-on and resourceful : You can define an MVP, write PRDs, and work directly with small teams without excessive process or bureaucracy
Strategic, but pragmatic : You think about long-term product vision while being comfortable making short-term tradeoffs to hit customer needs today
Communication skills : You can explain strategy simply, get buy-in across functions, and advocate clearly for difficult decisions

Team Size : Small, lean team—expect direct collaboration with founders and all functions
Pace : Fast-moving, customer-driven—we iterate quickly and aren't attached to lengthy planning cycles
