You'll join an early-stage, AI-native startup with a product that has already proven market fit. We build cutting-edge AI solutions for Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) for enterprises around the world.

Our customers are auditors, risk managers, and compliance teams, which means evaluation rigor, auditability, and EU AI Act readiness aren't afterthoughts for us. They're product requirements.

Tasks

As our first Product Manager, you'll own product end-to-end and work directly alongside the founding team. You will:

Own product discovery and be accountable for outcomes — we hand you problems and constraints, not solutions. You're measured on the value you create for customers and the business, not on features shipped.
Own the roadmap and prioritization — driven by customer evidence and company strategy, not by whoever shouts loudest. We do not want a sales-driven roadmap, and neither will you.
Drive customer discovery yourself — you'll be in front of auditors, risk managers, and compliance teams regularly. We have strong customer relationships and access is provided, but you make it happen; nobody hands it to you.
Build the product operating model from scratch — discovery cadence, how we decide what to build, how product, design, and engineering work as one team. You're our first PM; you set the standard.
Work as one team with design and engineering — addressing value, usability, and feasibility together, not throwing requirements over a wall.
Partner with our CEO on go-to-market and pricing — you bring the product and customer evidence; he owns the commercial side. You'll collaborate closely.
Become a GRC expert, fast — controls, RACM, audit evidence, the regulatory frameworks. We'll backstop you, but you'll own becoming fluent.

Requirements

You've worked inside a genuinely empowered product organization, and you can show us what good product discovery actually looked like there — we care more about what you've shipped and the outcomes you drove than years on a CV
A track record of owning outcomes, not just shipping features — you can point to a decision you made from customer evidence and the result it drove
Strong product experience in B2B SaaS
You drive your own access to customers — proactive, relentless about learning from real users, never waiting to be handed them
Comfort being the sole PM with no playbook — you can stand up the operating model, not just operate within one
You learn deep, complex, regulated domains fast — and you enjoy it
Strong product judgment under ambiguity — you run discovery on real customers, build conviction, and know when to commit
German at C1 and English at C1 — you'll run discovery with German-speaking GRC teams and work with an international team daily

Nice to have

Comfort working closely with technical founders and engineering teams
Experience with AI-native products or LLM-powered features
Exposure to GRC, compliance, audit, risk, or regulated industries (regtech, Big4, infosec)

Benefits

Full ownership of the product as our first Product Manager, working directly with the founding team from day one
Work at the frontier of how AI-native products are built
A steep learning curve at the intersection of product, enterprise GRC, and AI
A clear path to Head of Product as the company and the product team scale — your trajectory tracks the company's
Direct access to real enterprise GRC customers to learn from and build for
Hybrid in Munich — minimum three days per week in our Munich North office. In-person matters while we build trust and you absorb the domain
Relocation support — if you're moving to Munich, we'll cover the moving company
