Product Lead

Do you really want the perfect job? Or do you want the next step in your career to be deeply impactful? I can’t offer you perfect, but I can offer deep impact. I have a successful 11-year-old SaaS product that needs awesome skillsets (maybe yours?) to reach new heights. As a team we’re killing it in DE for our niche, but we have a lofty road map ahead of us (#disruptUSA) and a bus with a few key seats we still need to fill.

Still reading? Awesome. Let me intro myself, hi my name is Remo. I’m the co-founder of ProvenExpert. You will be working closely with me; therefore, I want to give you context on us, what the role is about and what we’re looking for.

Me and my colleagues are fighting for the little (wo)man - the small business owners and one-(wo)man-bands who grind each and every day to master their craft. They want to focus on delivering outstanding work and getting more clients - not sales and marketing. That’s where we come in as ProvenExpert - we provide a SaaS platform for small business owners to manage feedback and enable them to direct their online reputation.
