- Conduct regular quality audits and initiate enhancements where necessary.

- Ensure legal and data protection compliance—no loose ends.

- Own the product roadmap: define, execute, and track milestones.

- Translate business goals into technical specifications and maintain transparency with UX/UI, Dev, Marketing, and Leadership.

- Analyze market data and competition, deriving actionable insights.

- Drive backlog planning, prioritization, and feature rollout—on time, always.

We’re looking for someone with:

- At least 2 years in operations or product management (experience in apps an advantage).

- Preferably a business or management bachelor’s degree.

We’re a great match if you:

- Like making things run smoothly—think well-oiled machine.
