Hire Product Managers.

Operators who’ve shipped to real customers, at real scale.

Senior product managers embedded in your team through staff augmentation. The hardest role to outsource, and the one most agencies do worst. Our PMs come from operator backgrounds: a Series A founder, a former Stripe lead, a YC alum who shipped something with real revenue.

How it works

The work, in practice.

They run discovery, write the press release, set the metrics, and stay long enough to know whether they were right. They don’t do Gantt charts. They do scope conversations.

FAQ

Before you ask.

Do they actually write the spec or just facilitate?
They write. If they can’t draft the PRD, the eval set, and the rollout plan, they don’t make the cut.
Can they own a launch with our exec team?
Yes. Most have launched to C-suite stakeholders at much larger companies than ours.
How do you screen for "operator"?
A real product debrief with two of our principals. They have to walk through a launch, the metrics, what they got wrong, what they’d do again.

Tell us what has to move.

A 30-minute call with an engineer, not a salesperson. We will map the capacity and ownership the work actually needs.
