Product Owner / Product Lead

We are looking for a highly intelligent and strategic Product Owner to join Out Of The Box Systems and take ownership of new and early-stage products within our company.

Your objective is to take ideas from concept to market-ready products and ultimately help turn them into profitable businesses.

This is not a traditional Product Owner role focused only on backlog management. The role is heavily focused on Marketing, UX Design, Fundraising, and High-Level Strategy. You will identify opportunities, shape product strategy, find paths to revenue, and execute go-to-market plans.
 

Who are we?

We are Out Of The Box Systems: a Ukrainian team of passionate, battle-tested engineers and creators united by one goal — delivering real results with clarity, precision, and autonomy.

We specialize in challenging engineering projects, including Rust Development, AI Engineering, Computer Graphics, Automation, and Custom Software Development. We value ownership, accountability, continuous learning, and practical problem-solving over bureaucracy and unnecessary processes.

Our team works remotely with clients from the USA, Canada, Europe, and other international markets.
 

Workload

• Full-time remote collaboration
• Long-term role within our company
• Direct collaboration with company leadership and engineering teams
• High level of autonomy and ownership
• Focus on measurable business results
   

What You Will Do

• Fundraising & Capital Strategy: Research, strategize, and pursue grant funding and other non-dilutive financing opportunities. You should know how to position and pitch a product to win capital.
• UX & Product Design: You don’t just sell the product — you shape it. Design intuitive user flows, build wireframes, and make sure the product experience is frictionless before development.
• Marketing & Go-To-Market: Build the marketing engine from scratch. Validate ideas, identify target markets, find early adopters, and create a path toward actual revenue.
• Strategize & Advise: You will not wait for instructions. Analyze the market, advise company leadership on the best strategic moves, and build the roadmap to execute them.
• Solve Complex Problems: Use AI, technology, resourcefulness, and first-principles thinking to bypass bottlenecks and move significantly faster than a traditional Product Owner.
   

Who You Are

• 100% Dedicated Full-Time: This is not a side hustle. This role should be your primary professional focus.
• Extremely Fast Learner: You can quickly understand new markets, funding landscapes, business models, and tools.
• A Scrappy Marketer & UX Thinker: You know how to get attention, validate ideas, and design user experiences without a massive budget or a dedicated design team.
• Strategic & Proactive: You don’t need detailed instructions to move forward and are comfortable challenging assumptions.
• Loyal & Ambitious: You want long-term collaboration where your financial upside is directly tied to the success of the products you help build.
• Upper-Intermediate English (B2) or higher
   

Compensation — Skin in the Game

We reward results and profitable outcomes, not simply time spent at a desk.

• Base: $500–$1,000/month
• Performance Bonuses: milestone bonuses and revenue-sharing tied to funding, launch, customer acquisition, and profitability
• Initial OTE: approximately $1,500–$2,000+ per month
• Uncapped Upside: if the products launch successfully and scale, earning significantly more — potentially $10,000+ per month — is possible
   

If you are looking only for a safe, guaranteed high salary without being directly accountable for results, this role is probably not the right fit.
 

What You Get

• Ownership of new and early-stage products within the company
• Direct collaboration with company leadership and engineering teams
• Significant influence over product and business strategy
• Performance-based financial upside
• Flexible remote work environment
• Long-term collaboration
• 2-year B2B contract reflecting our long-term commitment to every team member
