Some opportunities may start immediately.
Others may become active as new projects enter our pipeline.

What this role actually looks like

This is not a “just manage backlog” type of role.

On a typical project, you might:

• Work with clients and stakeholders to understand business goals, user problems, and product opportunities
• Help shape product direction even when requirements, priorities, or product vision are still evolving
• Create and organize product backlogs, user stories, business rules, and feature definitions
• Work closely with delivery managers, designers, and engineers to define valuable, feasible, and usable solutions
• Facilitate alignment across clients, technical teams, and business stakeholders
• Participate in product discovery, roadmap discussions, prioritization, and go-to-market conversations
• Join product ceremonies and help ensure the product is evolving in the right direction

Some projects will be highly strategic and discovery-oriented.
Others will be much more execution and delivery-focused.

Most are a mix of both.

What tends to work well here

We’ve seen that people who thrive in this type of engagement usually:

• Have strong experience managing digital products across web and mobile environments
• Feel comfortable navigating ambiguity, evolving priorities, and fast-changing product contexts
• Know how to balance business goals, user needs, technical constraints, and delivery realities
• Feel totally confident working in English with international clients and teams (calls, discussions, async) — at least advanced level
• Operate well across multidisciplinary environments involving product, engineering, design, and delivery teams
• Adapt well to consulting-style environments where different projects and industries require fast context-switching
• Already use AI as part of their day-to-day workflow — whether for organization, discovery, documentation, research, prioritization, or workflow acceleration

Previous experience in consulting/service environments, enterprise products, or US-based client contexts is a strong plus.

This probably won’t be your thing if

Just to be transparent:

• You prefer highly structured environments with very stable scopes and long planning cycles
• You’re uncomfortable navigating ambiguity or balancing multiple stakeholders and priorities simultaneously
• You prefer operating only at a strategic level without involvement in execution and day-to-day product decisions
• You’d rather avoid client-facing conversations or cross-functional collaboration
• You rely heavily on mature product structures, large internal product teams, or extensive metrics environments to operate effectively

There’s nothing wrong with any of that — it’s just not how these engagements usually operate.

One last thing

To participate in this selection process, you must:

• Have a valid business registration in your country (such as CNPJ, VAT, EIN, or equivalent)
• Have a bank account eligible to receive payments in USD
• Be able to issue invoices accordingly

These requirements are necessary for contractor engagement and payment processing.

Not sure if you check every box?

That’s okay.

We know that many great people — especially from underrepresented groups — hesitate to apply unless they meet 100% of the requirements.

If this opportunity sounds interesting, we’d still love to hear from you.
