You will own the product strategy and roadmap for SimplyCodes, focusing on conversion, retention, and AI transitions. Responsibilities include shipping product changes and making data-driven decisions without extensive stakeholder alignment.
Product.ai is building the truth engine for shopping. Profitable. Bootstrapped. No outside investors. No board. 25 people outperforming companies 10x our size.
We're hiring a Senior Product Manager - SimplyCodes.
Why This Role ExistsSimplyCodes is the revenue engine - $22M and growing, 60% margins, millions of users. It's the largest verified coupon platform on the internet. The CEO has been leading product strategy directly. As Product.ai's new surfaces (Alloy, MCP, consumer experience) demand more CEO attention, SimplyCodes needs a dedicated product owner who can hold the entire surface, see the roadmap, and ship without waiting for direction.
This is NOT "Head of Product." Product.ai doesn't need a product org builder at 25 people. It needs one senior PM who owns SimplyCodes end-to-end and reports directly to the CEO.
The System You'll Need to Model
Conversion and retention. The metrics that matter: conversion lift, MLP performance, user return rates, merchant coverage. You ship initiatives that move these numbers and you're honest about what didn't work.
The AI transition. SimplyCodes is becoming AI-native. Verification agents, automated coverage expansion, intelligent checkout assistance. You own the product decisions that determine how this transition happens.
Who You AreHow you think. You form specific opinions about products fast - and you defend them with evidence, not frameworks. You can name a feature you killed and explain the kill criterion. When someone says "let the data decide," you think "data informs decisions, it doesn't make them." You model the whole system: user, merchant, revenue, technology.
How you work. You ship. Not decks, not specs, not stakeholder alignment sessions - shipped product changes that users experience. You're comfortable making unilateral calls on product direction when the evidence supports it. AI tools are part of your workflow - you've used Claude or Cursor to accelerate product work, not just manage it.
What you've probably built. Product strategy and shipped features at a commerce, consumer, or marketplace company. You've owned a P&L-relevant surface - not just a feature within one. You've navigated platform-specific physics (extension, marketplace, mobile). We care about what you shipped and what it did to the numbers, not where you did it.
Who this isn't for. This role is wrong if "Head of Product" is a deal-breaker title for you. It's wrong if you need a team of PMs under you to be productive. It's wrong if "stakeholder alignment" is your dominant vocabulary - there are 25 people here and the CEO is your primary stakeholder. You'll thrive here if you like owning a real revenue surface with real consequences.
How We Evaluate
Base: $200,000 - $260,000. Top of market for product management.
Equity: Profits Interest Units (PIUs) - $0 strike, Capital Gains, actual ownership from day one.
Profit sharing: Annual FCF participation. SimplyCodes' margins mean this is real money.
Liquidity: Annual tender offer. No IPO required.
Benefits: 100% premium coverage. Unlimited PTO.
Based in Santa Monica. Hybrid, with flexibility.

Include a product memo or strategy document - something that shows how you think about a product surface, not just a feature.

The System You'll Need to Model
- A $22M commerce engine built on verified coupon truth. Affiliate attribution, merchant coverage, extension distribution, conversion optimization. Revenue has real physics - you need to model them.
- An AI verification layer that's transforming how coupons get validated. AI agents, automated testing, truth scoring. The product is shifting from "find codes" to "verify what works" - you'll own that transition.
- A browser extension with millions of users. Chrome, Firefox, Safari. Distribution, activation, retention. Extension-specific product physics that most PMs have never navigated.
- A company that's building the next thing while running the current thing. SimplyCodes funds the mission. Product.ai IS the mission. You hold the revenue engine steady while it evolves.

How We Evaluate
- Written artifact. A product memo, a strategy doc, a feature spec, or a post-mortem. Show us how you think about product problems in writing.
- Video screen. How you reason about product tradeoffs and user behavior.
- Conversation with the founder. Can you form a specific opinion about SimplyCodes in our first conversation?
- Paid strategic trial. 10-14 days. Day 1-3: deep immersion in SimplyCodes data, product, and codebase. Day 4-10: produce a State of SimplyCodes memo with three strategic recommendations. Day 11-14: ship one initiative. We pay $2,500-$5,000 for the trial.
