Trainee - Product Manager @ Altar.io

Description

Hello!

Are you looking to start a Product Management career?

Want to learn from a team of highly-skilled, top-talent innovators while working on multiple products in a range of industries?

If so, our Product Trainee Program is the right place for you.

This program will give you experience working with an expert team that helps entrepreneurs and business leaders build innovative products that transform their industries, from early-stage MVPs to disruptive satellite products.

As a Product Trainee, you’ll be an active member of our Product Team, working closely with entrepreneurs as if you were their co-founder. You’ll practice Lean Management methodology – learning to prioritize and focus on the right features at each phase of a product’s development. You’ll then learn to merge this with the User Experience vision, balancing the technology impact of those decisions in demanding web projects.

You’ll have the opportunity to work with a host of entrepreneurs and business leaders, like an ex-Product Owner of YouTube and a former Managing Director of HSBC. Not to mention exciting companies like the multi-award-winning regtech startup Apiax, or Coca–Cola.

You’ll work in a cross-functional team of seasoned Altarions with expertise in a multitude of sectors, from fintech and marketplace to AI and IoT. All working at the cutting edge of technology.

  • Assist complex sales processes with early product recommendations.
  • Create and maintain a product backlog;
  • Actively mitigate impediments impacting the successful completion of Release/Sprint Goals;
  • Use their knowledge of the market, competition, and current trends to define innovative functional solutions to boost Product values.

 

The Hands-On Experience We Need You to Bring to the Table:

What You Can Expect from our Recruitment Process:

Our process starts with us screening your CV. Once we’ve done that you can expect:

  • A one-hour interview with our Recruitment and Product Teams, so we can get to know you better, your skills, and your experience;
  • A final one-hour interview with our CEO to make sure we’re the right fit for you, and you’re the right fit for us.

Once you’ve completed the process we’ll be in touch to let you know whether or not you were successful. If you’re the right fit, we’ll also give you more details on the next steps to enter the Altar Trainee Program.
