About the Role

We're looking for a Product Manager with a deep understanding of data architecture, a sharp technical mind, and a passion for leveraging AI to structure, standardize, and surface complex information. This role sits at the heart of our data platform and will shape how the heavy machinery-parts world connects.

This is a fully remote role open to candidates globally. Strong English proficiency is essential, and the role pays approximately €1800 - €2400 per month depending on experience.

What You’ll Do

Define Data Models

  • Design flexible, scalable data schemas to represent agricultural parts, equipment, and compatibility (fitment) relationships
  • Work closely with data engineers to refine taxonomies and part hierarchies
  • Ensure models support both human usability and AI-readability

Drive Data Normalization Algorithms

  • Design rule-based and ML-enhanced systems for cleaning and standardizing messy supplier and OEM data
  • Prioritize approaches that improve matching accuracy and part deduplication
  • Define KPIs and test frameworks to measure normalization effectiveness

Leverage AI and Automation

  • Partner with ML engineers to identify where AI can improve categorization, entity extraction, and compatibility inference
  • Guide AI product strategy—from training dataset definition to UX for AI-powered features
  • Stay current with generative and traditional AI techniques relevant to structured data

Define Interfaces

  • Specify APIs and internal tooling interfaces to power product search, part selection, and fitment validation workflows
  • Collaborate with frontend and backend teams to ensure seamless integration and performance
  • Champion developer experience and documentation standards

What You Bring

  • 4+ years in product management, ideally in a data-heavy domain (e.g., eCommerce, B2B marketplaces, catalog platforms, or supply chain tech)
  • Experience working on schema definition, data pipelines, or data platforms
  • Proven ability to partner cross-functionally with engineers, data scientists, and operations teams
  • Familiarity with data normalization, entity resolution, or catalog management problems
  • Understanding of how to evaluate and integrate AI/ML systems into product workflows
  • A builder’s mindset: willing to dive deep, write specs, draw schemas, and iterate quickly
  • Excellent written communication and a high bar for clarity and detail
  • University degree, ideally in a science, technical or business domain

Bonus Points

  • Experience with agricultural equipment, industrial parts, or automotive catalogs
  • Exposure to LLMs, embeddings, or vector search applied to structured data
  • Prior work in remote-first or distributed teams
  • Proficiency in at least one additional European language (e.g., German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish)

Why Join Us?

  • Shape the data backbone of a fast-scaling B2B platform
  • Work with real-world data that matters to customers every day
  • Join a small, sharp, and globally distributed team
  • Own critical decisions and make an impact from Day 1

What We Offer

  • Opportunity to be a thought leader with a wide span of control in a fast-growing startup with experienced mentors
  • A challenging and rewarding environment where you can directly impact the future of the company and the industry
