Chief Product & Technology Officer

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Argentina, +5 more countries.

📋 Description

• Define the vision and strategy for product and technology, transforming them into a roadmap focused on a few high-impact initiatives.

• Create an efficient system that converts ideas into production: establishing a team and a workflow that enables rapid and high-quality shipping, utilizing AI to expedite every phase from concept to deployment.

• Serve as the representative of users in all decision-making processes, ensuring that user insights are integrated into the product within weeks rather than quarters.

• Determine what gets developed, what does not, and the level of completion required.

• Launch products, measure their performance, and iterate by getting them into users’ hands early and making swift adjustments.

• Assemble a team that attracts talented individuals who wish to join and grow, while taking ownership of the platform's architecture, quality, security, and costs.

• Develop Workana Intelligence: an analytical layer that understands clients and talent, assisting clients in purchasing outcomes and helping talent find opportunities, validation, and training.

• Set the baseline and create a 12-month plan that includes milestones, product metrics, and a hiring strategy for the team.

⛳️ Requirements

• Over 8 years of experience in product and/or technology, with at least 4 years spent leading teams and developing leaders, while maintaining attention to detail.

• Proven track record of launching a new product from inception to completion, rather than merely optimizing an existing one.

• Strong technical expertise: able to engage with developers on architecture, data, and trade-offs as an equal, with the team relying on your insights regarding how to build, not just what to build.

• Experience in taking AI solutions to production with actual users.

• Background in marketplaces, digital platforms, or large-scale SaaS, ideally with a focus on data-driven products (matching, recommendations, search).

• Proficiency in Spanish and advanced English skills.

• Familiarity with the freelance or future-of-work sector.

• Experience working at a startup or scale-up in LATAM or the US.

• Portuguese: Brazil is one of our key markets.

🏝️ Benefits

• Opportunity to shape the next iteration of Workana, leveraging ten years of authentic work data, with genuine autonomy to make significant bets.

• Product and Development teams report directly to you: you set the roadmap, determine the architecture, decide who to hire, and make high-impact investment choices.

• Direct access to the CEO and the leadership team.

• Significant freedom in your work style, accompanied by a clear expectation of complete commitment to Workana.

• Competitive compensation commensurate with the role's level, in addition to remote work options.
