Almedia is already Europe’s #3 fastest-growing company in 2025 (FT1000). We are building the future of marketing by rewarding our community of over 70 million users for engaging with our advertisers’ products. We are offering a new way to acquire users for the biggest companies in the world. Product Lead €120K – €160K • Offers Equity Freecash is the product. Almedia is the engagement engine behind it: the smartest way for mobile game studios to turn high-potential users into high-value ones. We're the leader in our category, profitable, and expanding fast. We're hiring one exceptional Product Leader. Not a fixed lane: real scope, real ownership, and a path to leading a team. If you think like a founder and can't sleep until the data tells you why, keep reading. ## What you'll own - End-to-end outcomes, not tickets. Hypothesis, roadmap, build, metrics, result: you own all of it. You find the highest-impact bets before anyone asks, and you execute. Discovery and delivery are the same job. - The hard, ambiguous problems. Form a sharp point of view, validate against the data, ship with conviction, kill it honestly when the numbers disagree. - Scope that grows. We point you at the biggest opportunity. As you earn it, that expands across Freecash and into new verticals. ## What you'll bring - You think like a founder. You make the call with incomplete information, hold a strong opinion about what will work and why, then prove or disprove it. You don't wait to be told what matters. - You live in the data. You dig in yourself, follow the thread, and come back with the insight nobody else found. Data tells you what to solve. Creativity decides how. Comfortable in Amplitude, Hex, and Looker. - You prioritize ruthlessly. Anyone can list a hundred things. You pick the few that matter right now. - You execute. Ideation to launch to iteration. You bring developers, data, design, and BD with you without slowing down. - You know consumer products. Built and shipped consumer-facing apps. What puts you ahead - You've been a founder. You know what it means to own an outcome with no one to hand it off to. - You've scaled through hyper-growth. 50 to 200+ people, building the plane mid-flight: familiar territory. - Mobile gaming or advertising background. You know the players, the incentives, the dynamics. Why Almedia? - Own Our Growth: We offer all Berlin-based employees equity in Almedia to truly be a part of our success. - Scale With Almedia: Grow alongside a startup that has been profitable from day one. - Central Berlin Office: Work from a fully-stocked modern office built for collaboration, accessible from all around Berlin. - Other Benefits: Transport subsidy, breakfasts and lunches, language learning, Urban Sports Club, and more. We believe in fostering talent, evaluating all skill levels during the hiring process, and providing a clear path for growth. Almedia is an equal opportunity employer.
