SALARY
$90,000-$120,000
About the role
- Partner directly with the leadership to build the broker back office product from early discovery through MVP, beta, and iteration
- Talk to brokers and operations teams to understand their workflows, pain points, constraints, and workarounds
- Synthesize customer conversations, product data, business needs, and technical constraints into clear recommendations
- Build working prototypes and thin product slices using Claude Code, Cursor, Figma, and other AI-assisted tools
- Own defined product workstreams from problem definition through launch, measurement, and iteration
- Investigate data, APIs, permissions, workflows, and product behavior to understand why something is happening
- Run structured experiments: define the hypothesis, build the fastest credible test, inspect the result, and recommend what should happen next
- Partner with engineering to determine what can remain exploratory and what must be hardened for production
- Partner with design to create clear, coherent interactions and raise the quality of what ships
- Test your own work, identify weak assumptions and failure cases, and avoid treating AI-generated output as correct by default
- Get product in front of customers, observe how they use it, and turn what you learn into the next product decision
- Stay current on new AI products and development methods, then bring the useful ones into how Courted works
- What You Bring 1-3 years of experience across product, engineering, design, analytics, operations, consulting, startups, or another relevant field. Previous product experience is not required
- Evidence that you have personally built and shipped something functional: a side project, application, startup, internal tool, capstone, prototype, or similar product
- Fluency with AI tools. You use AI to build, investigate, reason, and improve your work, not only to summarize information or draft documents
- A track record of learning unfamiliar products, industries, or technical concepts quickly
- High agency. You take ownership, surface blockers early, and do not wait to be told every next step
- Comfort moving across documents, designs, data, and code. You do not need to be an engineer, but you should be curious about how software works
- Strong customer curiosity and the ability to look past a feature request to understand the underlying problem
- Emerging product and interaction taste. You notice when something is confusing, incomplete, or unlikely to create real value
- Judgment about the limits of AI-generated output and a habit of checking your own work
- Clear written and verbal communication
- A low-ego, collaborative approach. You expect your work to be critiqued, changed, or discarded as the team learns
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
