About this role
About Katapult Labs
Katapult is an AI-first engineering studio connecting senior LATAM talent with startups and companies in the US. We're not a staff-augmentation shop: every person we put in front of a client represents Katapult, co-creates product, and owns the outcome directly, with no managers or leads acting as a layer in between.
The Role
We're looking for a Product Manager to be the most critical hire on the founding team behind one of our partners, an early-stage consumer product with big ambitions to become a real tech company. This is a B2C role, not B2B: our partner needs someone with genuine taste who understands both the business and the technical side well enough to shape an experience that feels great to millions of end users.
- You'll act as the delivery lead and product manager for the engagement, working hand in hand with a design lead and a full-stack builder to define what gets built and why.
- We are not looking for a metrics-first or API-focused product manager.
- We're looking for someone who understands virality, growth, and engagement, someone who has shipped consumer products people love, and who can bring that instinct into a fast-moving 0-to-1 environment.
Key Responsibilities
-
Own the product vision and roadmap for a consumer-facing application from early stage onward
-
Act as delivery lead, coordinating closely with a design lead and full-stack builder(s)
-
Define and prioritize features that drive engagement, retention, and virality
-
Translate a non-technical founding team's ideas into clear, buildable product direction
-
Use product analytics to understand user behavior and guide iteration
-
Bring strong design sensibility to every product decision, ensuring the experience feels polished and intentional
Requirements
-
Advanced conversational English, since all collaboration happens in English
-
Proven experience as a Product Manager on consumer-facing (B2C) applications with high user engagement
-
Strong product taste and design sensibility, comfortable partnering closely with design
-
Passionate about technology and building things with AI, we need someone a little bit technical that can develop features if needed.
-
Experience using product analytics tools such as Amplitude or PostHog to track engagement, funnels, and virality
-
Comfort operating in a 0-to-1 environment with a non-technical founding team
-
Strong communication skills and the ability to act as a true delivery lead, not just a backlog manager
Nice to Have
-
Background in consumer apps with a strong social, video, or content component
-
Experience working directly with founders in early-stage startups
-
Familiarity with growth and virality mechanics in mobile-first products
Work-Life Balance
-
Work from Anywhere in Latin America: Enjoy the freedom to work remotely from any country in Latin America.
-
23 Days of PTO per Year: Take time to recharge with paid time off, accrued monthly (1.91 days/month).
-
USA Federal Holidays
Financial Benefits
-
Monthly Payment in USD: Get paid in US dollars, no matter where you are.
-
Contractor Agreement with No End Date: Enjoy the stability of a long-term contract.
