Product Owner

Product Owner
A high-growth, VC-backed SaaS company hiring its founding India product team
Location: Remote (India)
The Mandate
A venture-backed SaaS company is building out its founding India product team and has partnered with Flexiple to hire a Product Owner who can turn a fast-moving roadmap into shipped features. The founders set direction; you will decide what gets built next, in what order, and why. Flexiple is a managed marketplace that helps global companies build high-performing teams and GCCs in India.
What You'll Own
Backlog & Roadmap
Own the product backlog end to end, writing and prioritising user stories with clear acceptance criteria
Translate customer feedback, usage data, and support tickets into a roadmap engineering can actually build against
Run sprint planning, backlog grooming, and release reviews with the engineering pod
Stakeholder Alignment
Act as the single point of contact between engineering, design, sales, and customer success on scope and trade-offs
Represent the customer in every planning conversation, defending outcomes over output
Report progress, slippage, and re-prioritisation calls to founders with enough context to act on
What Good Looks Like
4 to 8 years in product ownership, product management, or a closely related delivery role, ideally in SaaS
A track record of shipping features that moved a real metric, not just a release note
Comfort writing crisp user stories and running Agile or Scrum ceremonies without a coach in the room
Working knowledge of tools such as Jira, Linear, or Productboard, and enough analytics fluency to read your own data
Clear written and spoken English and a reliable remote-work setup
Nice-to-Haves
A Certified Scrum Product Owner credential or equivalent
Prior experience as the first or founding Product Owner at an early-stage company
Exposure to B2B SaaS pricing, packaging, or usage-based product models
What You'll Get
Direct, weekly access to the founding team on roadmap and pricing calls
A backlog you shape from week one, not one you inherit
Remote-friendly, pan-India hiring with long-term placement
