Full-Time Product Generalist / Project Manager + QA

Posted 3 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I'm a solo founder running a portfolio of 15+ live products — web platforms and mobile apps (iOS + Android) across very different domains: marketplaces, fintech tools, social apps, B2B services. Development is heavily AI-driven, so things move fast: features ship daily, and I need a sharp right hand to keep up with me. What you'll actually do (this is a generalist role — every day is different): - Project management — track tasks across multiple projects, keep priorities straight, make sure nothing falls through the cracks - Testing / QA — test new features on web and on real devices (iPhone + Android) before and after release, report bugs clearly, verify fixes - Product work — use the products like a real user, propose improvements, spot weak points, help shape launches and growth ideas - Day-to-day operations — whatever a fast-moving product portfolio needs that day Requirements: - You personally own both an iPhone and an Android phone — non-negotiable, mobile testing on real devices is a core part of the job - Available weekdays, 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM Pacific Time (San Francisco), with a lunch break — this is full-time work in sync with me, not async freelancing - Organized, self-driven, comfortable juggling many small tasks across many projects without losing track - Bonus (not required): experience with task trackers, basic understanding of how web/mobile products are built, QA experience A note on compensation: I'll be upfront: the pay is modest. But what you'll get in return is an education you can't buy — by the end of your first few months you'll have hands-on experience across product management, QA, launches, and AI-driven development on a dozen real products with real users. If you're early in your career and want to grow fast, this will do more for you than years at a routine job. If you're just looking for the highest hourly rate, this role isn't for you — and that's okay. What you get: - A front-row seat at an AI-first product studio — you'll see how a single founder ships at the speed of a whole team, and you'll learn the entire cycle: idea → build → test → launch → grow - Real ownership and variety — not one boring project, but a dozen live products in different niches - Direct daily collaboration with the founder — zero bureaucracy, your ideas get implemented within days, sometimes hours - Long-term, stable full-time engagement for the right person
