Your Role: The Product Architect
You are the bridge between Carousells large first-party data moat and traffic and the end-user experience. You will be 70% builder and 30% strategist. You will not manage via spreadsheets; you will lead by setting the architectural vision while also leading by executing and shipping hands-on.

Team Leadership: Lead grow and edit a lean team of AI-native full-stack generalists who share your bias for action and product-first mindset.
Product Discovery: Spend time with prospective customers including Carousell merchants to understand their pain points. You define the problem before you build the solution.
Qualifications :
The Technical Profile
AI Native: You understand foundational model latent space and RAG-enhanced architectures and how to handle non-deterministic outputs. You know when an LLM is the answer and when a simple heuristic is better.
Full-Stack Capability: You can navigate the entire stackfrom highly scalable Golang and Python-based agentic backends to a polished Flutter interface for cross platform UI/UX.
Cross-functional collaboration: Bonus if you have the experience to collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate modern AI stacks into Carousells existing infrastructure without getting bogged down in red tape.
The Product-Minded Mindset
Outcome > Output: You dont care about lines of code; you care about GMV uplift and Sellers time and cost saved.
High Agency: You treat this unit with extreme ownership. You find the data you need you talk to users and you ship.
User Obsessed: You make something people want. And you realize that for an AI agent the interface is the personality. You care about how the AI feels to the user.
