- Design and iterate on early feature concepts, creating lightweight prototypes and visual storyboards to illustrate ideas
- Test and refine product concepts with internal teams and select users
- Streamline recurring workflows and reporting processes through automation and tool integration
- Prepare concise, executive-level deliverables such as product briefs, market snapshots, and strategy updates
the ideal candidate
- 1–4 years of experience in product, strategy, or technical roles (or an exceptional new graduate eager to learn)
- Fast learner, technically curious and comfortable experimenting with modern tools, frameworks, or coding basics to bring concepts to life
- Hands-on builder who enjoys turning ideas into visible demos — whether through interactive mock-ups, simple code, or low-code tools
- Strong communicator who can illustrate ideas through visuals, prototypes, or simulations
- Analytical thinker with an ability to connect dots across customer insights, data, and business goals
- Independent, organized, and proactive — takes ownership from concept to tangible output
