📋 Description

• Take full ownership of GrantOS from start to finish.

• Influence the way grant professionals engage with Instrumentl as a platform, focusing on task management, reporting, integrations, and the data relationships that encompass the entire grant lifecycle.

• Spearhead product development in uncharted territories where the problems are not clearly defined, and assist in clarifying those challenges.

• Establish the interaction patterns and foundational design system that will be utilized by all other product areas.

• A proven history of managing complex B2B product areas from start to finish, including multi-entity workflows that involve data relationships, user roles, and cross-team collaboration.

• Experience in zero-to-one product ownership: you have initiated from a problem rather than a specification and made sound decisions amidst uncertainty.

• Strong systems thinking and proficiency in Figma/prototyping, with extensive involvement in user research from planning to synthesis, and the capacity to influence product vision rather than merely executing it.

• Background in B2B SaaS, particularly in complex or enterprise-adjacent systems.

• Familiarity with agentic or AI-driven product interfaces, with a demonstrated use of AI tools in your design workflow.

• Knowledge of the nonprofit or social impact sector.
