Thanks are looking for a Product Lead to drive our technical product strategy as we scale, rapidly and globally. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of advertising technology.

You will work closely with our founders, CTO, product and engineering team to refine our product vision, align priorities, and ensure we build an innovative, scalable, and unbeatable ad network.

What You'll Do

• Define and execute the technical product strategy, ensuring alignment with company goals while bringing structure through effective prioritization
• Work closely with our high-performing engineering team to translate business objectives into actionable development plans
• Lead AI and automation initiatives to increase team output and efficiency - potentially developing Thanks' AI strategy
• Analyse user behavior, market trends, and data insights to support informed product decisions
• Run benefit analysis (both short-term and long-term) to guide product strategy
• Own the end-to-end technical product development lifecycle, from ideation to launch and iteration
• Define key metrics that quantify our USP and build a roadmap around these insights
• Get deep in the weeds with engineers - writing tickets, grooming backlogs, and solving technical challenges
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to create seamless and engaging ad experiences for our partners and customers

What We're Looking For

• Product management experience across various technology environments, including startup or scaleup settings
• Technical product background with a thorough understanding of modern software engineering; able to "speak code" and keep pace with a high-performing engineering team
• Expertise working with data, automation, and ideally AI to increase team output and efficiency
• Aptitude for quickly digesting complex topics and translating them into actionable insights
• Detail-oriented mindset with strong numerical literacy and data analysis skills
• Owner mentality; self-starter with a bias for action who can identify problems and solve them rapidly
• Ability to bring structure through rigorous prioritisation, while remaining comfortable with the chaos of a high-growth environment
• Strong-willed yet empathetic leadership style with outstanding collaborative skills
• Entrepreneurial thinking, ability to "outsmart" with innovative ideas and approaches

Nice to Have

• Understanding of or experience with adtech (though definitely not required - we have internal expertise)
• Experience working in the US or with US-based teams
• Experience as a founder or in an early-stage startup
• Computer science or engineering background, or experience building software products for fun - we don’t need you to be able to code, but we do need you to love creating complex technical products

Joining Thanks means becoming part of a Sydney-based, global-from-day-one, well-funded startup tackling one of advertising's biggest challenges: ad fatigue. We're redefining ad experiences with industry-leading engagement that not only captivates but also delights and rewards consumers.

Here's why you'll love working with us:

• Direct Impact: Your work will shape our products and trajectory as we scale rapidly
• Work with Founders: Report directly to the CEO and work closely with the founding team
• Ownership and Autonomy: We'll give you the right tools, freedom, and collaborative environment to succeed and achieve your biggest goals
• Competitive Package: Enjoy a competitive salary, performance-based bonuses, and stock options
• Growth Trajectory: Thrive in an environment of rapid change, constant challenges, and endless opportunities
• Comprehensive Benefits: Enjoy a benefits package designed to support your needs and wellbeing
• Flexibility: Work flexibly, with two required days (Tuesdays and Thursdays) at our Bridge Street office in Sydney
