AI Product Builder (m/f/d)

AI Product Builder (m/f/d), 1. image

Why This Role Exists

We are building an AI-native product team that ships working software in days, not quarters. This role is for someone who treats prototyping as the discovery medium — not someone who runs discovery and then waits for engineering capacity. Your default output is a working artifact in a tenant's or stakeholder's hands, not a PRD in Confluence.

This is a builder role, not a coordinator role. If you light up at owning a quarterly roadmap and running stakeholder workshops, this is not the right fit — and that is by design..

What Success Looks Like

  • Tenants and operations teams use working prototypes within the same week the idea was raised — not the same quarter. 
  • You ship a portfolio of small, testable bets. Some land, some are killed quickly. Both are good outcomes. 
  • AI-powered tenant features move from concept to live PoC without engineering becoming the bottleneck. 
  • Build / buy / kill decisions are made on evidence from real users — not opinions in slide decks. 
  • The integration engineering team hardens what you proved was worth keeping; everything else is thrown away cleanly.

Responsibilities

Hands-On Building

  • Ship clickable, working prototypes in AI-native tooling — Claude, Cursor, Replit, v0, Lovable, Figma Make, Bolt, or equivalent — within the same week an idea surfaces. 
  • Use prototypes as the discovery artifact. A working demo in front of a tenant beats a 12-page PRD every time. 
  • Build internal tools, automations, and tenant-facing PoCs end-to-end. You are not just specifying — you are shipping. 
  • Decide what to harden into production with the integration engineering team, what to keep in prototype form, and what to throw away.

Discovery & Tenant Insight

  • Run discovery directly with tenants, property managers, and operations teams. Live in the field, not in workshops. 
  • Use AI in your own workflow — feedback synthesis, competitive scanning, copy generation, data exploration, SQL against tenant analytics. 
  • Translate real estate operational reality into product decisions. Understand how leases, service charges, move-ins, and tenant communications actually work — not in theory, but in practice.

Prioritization & Stakeholder Translation

  • Own a portfolio of small bets, not a single quarterly roadmap. Velocity comes from optionality, not from planning. 
  • Be the connective tissue between business stakeholders and the AI-native build team. Shield builders from noise; surface signal. 
  • Define the few KPIs that actually matter for tenant adoption and operational impact. Instrument them yourself when needed. 
  • Make pragmatic build / buy / kill calls fast. A killed idea this week is more valuable than a maybe-someday idea on a roadmap.

Your Profile

Experience & Expertise

  • 4+ years shipping product, ideally in B2C or self-service B2B platforms. We care more about what you have shipped than how long you have been doing it. 
  • Hard requirement: a working portfolio of AI-built prototypes. You must be able to demonstrate something you personally built and shipped in the last 90 days using tools like Claude, Cursor, Replit, v0, or similar. 
  • Technical literacy that goes beyond "can talk to engineers": comfortable reading APIs, sketching data models, writing SQL, debugging your own prototypes, deploying to Vercel or similar. 
  • Strong tenant or end-user empathy and direct discovery instincts. You have run sessions with real users in the last 6 months. 
  • Real estate, proptech, property management, or tenant services experience is a meaningful advantage — not just "nice to have". Domain familiarity translates directly into shipping speed. 
  • Comfortable working without traditional PM artifacts. You can write a clear spec when needed, but you do not lead with one.

Core Competencies

  • Builder Instinct: You ship working artifacts as your primary form of communication. Documents are a fallback, not a first move.
  • AI Tool Fluency: You select and apply the right AI tool for the right job. You evaluate new ones critically and adopt fast when they earn it. 
  • Discovery Through Building: You use prototypes as the discovery medium — putting working demos in front of users instead of running theoretical workshops. 
  • Prioritization Under Uncertainty: You kill bad ideas quickly and double down on what is showing signal. You are comfortable with most of your bets not paying off.
  • Stakeholder Translation: You hold the line between business intent and engineering reality without becoming a bottleneck for either side.
  • Real Estate Operational Curiosity: You actively want to understand how a property gets managed, where the friction lives, and what tenants actually deal with.

Who You Are

  • Builder First: You measure your week in things shipped, not meetings attended. 
  • Comfortable Throwing Work Away: You do not get attached to ideas that did not land. The portfolio matters more than any single bet. 
  • Allergic to Pure-Coordinator Weeks: If your week is mostly JIRA grooming and status meetings, something is wrong and you fix it. 
  • AI-Forward: AI tools are your default workflow, not a novelty. You experiment with new ones every month. 
  • Direct & Pragmatic: You push back on bad ideas — including your own — and you do it without ceremony. 
  • Discreet: You handle tenant data and sensitive operational information with the care it deserves, including data passing through AI systems.

Qualifications

  • Working portfolio of AI-built prototypes — link required in application. 
  • English: business fluent.
  • German: a strong advantage given the operating context. 
  • Relevant degree in any field, or equivalent demonstrated experience. Degree is not gating; portfolio is. 
  • Familiarity with tools such as Claude, Cursor, Replit, Figma Make, Vercel, Supabase, Notion, Linear, and modern analytics platforms.
