Product Lead

Job Title: Product Lead Location: Los Angeles Reporting to: Co-Founder About 8Fleet: 8Fleet is building the foundational physical world infrastructure layer for autonomous and non-autonomous ridesharing — the scaffolding that makes mass AV adoption commercially viable. We are the fastest growing fleet operator in the world. About the Role: We are seeking a seasoned and versatile person to run Product. This is a rare, zero-to-one hire. You will sit at the intersection of product execution and growth strategy — embedded with engineering to ship product that moves the needle, and accountable for the metrics that prove it. This role demands someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, can take ambiguous requirements and turn them into robust, high-quality, and scalable solutions, and can mentor peers in best practices. You will have an outsized influence on how this company scales. What You'll Do: Product Execution Own PRDs end-to-end — from problem definition through engineering delivery and post-launch measurement Be the connective tissue between business goals and technical implementation; translate operator insights and partner requirements into crisp specs Run sprint planning, manage the product backlog, and ruthlessly prioritize against growth impact Define and instrument success metrics for every feature shipped; hold yourself and the team accountable to outcomes, not output Use AI-native tools (Cursor, Claude, Replit, etc.) as a force-multiplier — prototype ideas yourself, generate test data, automate QA loops, and reduce back-and-forth with Eng B2B Partnerships & AV Ecosystem Build and deepen the product relationships with rideshare partners (Uber, Lyft, etc) and inbound AV OEM/operator partners Identify integration opportunities, joint GTM motions, and exclusive data-sharing arrangements that create durable competitive moat Own the partner product roadmap — surface their needs, translate them into internal priorities, and close the feedback loop Driver & Operator Acquisition and Retention Design and own the funnel from driver awareness to active fleet contributor — including onboarding, activation, and long-term retention loops Develop and ship driver-facing product features that improve quality scores, earnings reliability, and satisfaction Leverage data to identify drop-off points, experiment aggressively, and ship fast Platform Growth Loops & Data Build and own the growth model: identify the compounding loops in fleet scale, utilization, and partner economics that make 8Fleet's network effects defensible Develop a proprietary data strategy — define what to capture, how to structure it, and how to turn it into fleet intelligence that competitors cannot replicate Partner with engineering to ship internal tools that give operators real-time visibility and dynamic decision-making capability Design and run structured growth experiments; synthesize learnings into a compounding playbook What You'll Bring to the Table: 5-9 years in product management or growth product, ideally at a hypergrowth company (mobility, logistics, marketplace, or gig economy strongly preferred) Demonstrably AI-native: you use LLMs, automation, and AI tooling daily as productivity infrastructure — not as a novelty Strong technical fluency; comfortable reading code, writing SQL, and in a room with senior engineers without losing credibility Experience shipping B2B or platform product in addition to consumer-facing surfaces Data-driven to your core — you build models before you make recommendations, and you know the difference between a metric and a KPI Exceptional written clarity; your PRDs and strategy memos are the kind people forward Bonus Points For: Background at Uber, Lyft, Via, Waymo, Cruise, or a fleet management software company Experience in a founder-adjacent or "first product hire" role at an early-stage company Hands-on with growth infrastructure: experimentation frameworks, attribution modeling, lifecycle tooling Prior experience managing or deeply collaborating on partner integrations (API-level or business-level) How We Work: We are not building a bureaucracy. We are building infrastructure for a trillion-dollar market shift, and we are doing it with a small, exceptional team. That means: High autonomy, high accountability — you own outcomes, not just tasks AI tools are table stakes, not a differentiator; we expect everyone to operate at 10x the output of a traditional team Decisions get made fast. We debate once, align, and ship. You will be expected to do the same You will have direct access to founders and be in the room for the strategic decisions that shape the company Compensation and Benefits: Competitive base salary commensurate with experience Meaningful equity — this is an early, high-impact hire and will be reflected in your option grant Performance-based incentives tied to company growth milestones Medical, dental, and vision coverage Flexible work environment with strong bias toward in-person for key planning and partner work
