What you'll do

As the first product hire, you will:

Productize onboarding. Deliver early moments of magic, own usage KPIs, optimize conversion funnel.
Own the customer. Shape feedback loops with engineering, triage feature requests and manage support. Earn customer love through community building; own NPS.
Build community assets. Create crisp tutorials and guides, showcasing the kind of work that Tuva powers.
Productize early GTM infra: CRM, automated outbound, basic marketing
Report directly to the CEO, doing what needs to get done across product, GTM, ops, PR, fundraising, etc.
Grow into leading a company function (Product, Growth) as determined by mutual fit.
Have immense visibility into and ownership over every aspect of a well funded, high growth company during the 0→1 phase. Learn the ropes and build the networks to start your own company someday.

You love science and scientists. Maybe you have scientists in your family, have a technical degree and did research in college, or maybe you just feel a sense of wonder when you look up at the Milky Way on a dark, moonless night.
You have a 2-4 year track record of getting things done in cross-functional roles that don't end at 5pm—a PhD, product/growth/ops at startups, VC, consulting, banking, PE, etc.
You're known for your incessant motor and optimism, especially in the face of uncertainty. “Yes and”, “I've got it”, and “we'll figure it out” are core vocabulary.
You have independent networks of academic scientists or R&D-forward organizations (e.g. biotech, hardware, aerospace/defense, chemicals/materials) or are excited to build them
You're a collaborative, loyal person who gets along with and cares about many kinds of people. Relationships outlast ideas and organizations.
