Bored Panda Ventures is an internal venture factory building new AI, SaaS, and content-driven products from scratch. We’re looking for a Product Category Manager / Venture Builder to own and launch new products end-to-end — from discovering real problems to validating, building MVPs, and getting first paying customers.

What You Will Do:
Own a product category / vertical from idea to launch and beyond;
Research markets, customer needs, competitors, and emerging trends (AI, creator economy, monetization);
Run product discovery & validation including customer interviews, problem validation and hypothesis testing;
Build and launch MVPs and validation products, often using AI tools & no-code / low-code solutions;
Analyze data, run experiments, and make data-driven decisions;
Take full ownership of P&L for newly launched products;
Work closely with design, engineering, and marketing teams;
Continuously iterate based on real user feedback and performance metrics.
What We Expect:
Experience building B2B or B2C digital products from ideation to market;
Strong entrepreneurial mindset and ownership mentality;
Hands-on experience with product discovery methodologies;
Solid understanding of product UX fundamentals'
Strong analytical and data-driven decision-making skills;
Technical understanding of web products and modern SaaS architectures;
Strong interest in AI and willingness to use AI tools hands-on in daily work;
You’re comfortable launching imperfect products fast;
You prefer doing and testing over over-planning;
You’re motivated by ownership, impact, and learning;
Nice to have: hands-on experience with AI, no-code, or low-code tools &/or background in software development or web technologies.
What We Offer:
Real ownership over products and outcomes;
Opportunity to launch multiple products, not just one;
Fast decision-making and minimal bureaucracy;
AI-first environment with room to experiment;
We'll foster your growth: get encouraged to train your extra skills, talents or passion and apply them at work;
We'll cover your health: private health and accident insurance will be at your service after the first 3 months with us;
We'll celebrate your success: bonuses for weddings, childbirths, referred friends, and more;
We'll give you memories: immerse yourself in themed parties, team buildings, and other events.
Compensation: starting from €6,000 gross (exact compensation may vary based on skills and experience).
