Role summary
Naïve, an AI company builder backed by prominent investors, seeks a product leader to define strategy, roadmap, and priorities while also getting hands-on with full-stack development. The role involves owning product launches end-to-end, translating customer feedback and analytics into product decisions, and driving quality across UX, performance, and reliability. The ideal candidate will have strong full-stack engineering skills in Next.js, TypeScript, and Python, real LLM experience, and prior experience leading product at an early-stage startup, demonstrating high agency and the ability to context-switch between coding and product decision-making.
**About Naïve**
Naïve is an autonomous company builder — we let businesses deploy AI employees to create/run entire companies. We're a $120M company backed by Y Combinator, Softbank, Vijay Krishnan (Founder of Turing), and more.
We're looking for someone who can be a product leader while getting their hands dirty shipping fast.
---
**What You'll Do**
* Work directly with the CEO / CTO to define product strategy, roadmap, and priorities
* Be a leader on the product / engineering team — set direction, unblock execution, raise the bar
* Build full-stack across Next.js + TypeScript (frontend) and Python / FastAPI (backend)
* Own product launches end-to-end — from spec to build to GTM
* Talk to customers constantly and translate product analytics / feedback loops into product decisions
* Drive quality: UX, performance, reliability, and velocity
---
**The Role**
You build. You lead. You own the outcome. You'll be the connective tissue between vision and execution — defining what we build, why, and making sure it ships well.
---
**Must-Haves**
* High Agency
* Strong full-stack engineering (Next.js, TypeScript, Python)
* Prior experience leading product at an early-stage startup — 0→1 at minimum once
* Ability to context-switch between writing code and making product calls in the same day
* Real LLM experience — tool use, agentic systems, structured outputs
* Strong product instincts and taste
**Nice-to-Haves**
* Ex-founder or technical co-founder background
* Experience shipping developer-facing or AI-native products
* Multi-agent systems or agent orchestration experience
* Familiarity with agent runtimes, MCP, or autonomous workflow tooling
\*P.S. If you’re serious about this role, send Sean a connection request with a note over Linkedin.
