AI Product Builder (m/f/d)

Why This Role Exists

We are building an AI-native product team that ships working software in days, not quarters. This role is for someone who treats prototyping as the discovery medium — not someone who runs discovery and then waits for engineering capacity. Your default output is a working artifact in a tenant's or stakeholder's hands, not a PRD in Confluence.

This is a builder role, not a coordinator role. If you light up at owning a quarterly roadmap and running stakeholder workshops, this is not the right fit — and that is by design..

What Success Looks Like

• Tenants and operations teams use working prototypes within the same week the idea was raised — not the same quarter.
• You ship a portfolio of small, testable bets. Some land, some are killed quickly. Both are good outcomes.
• AI-powered tenant features move from concept to live PoC without engineering becoming the bottleneck.
• Build / buy / kill decisions are made on evidence from real users — not opinions in slide decks.
• The integration engineering team hardens what you proved was worth keeping; everything else is thrown away cleanly.

Responsibilities

Hands-On Building

• Ship clickable, working prototypes in AI-native tooling — Claude, Cursor, Replit, v0, Lovable, Figma Make, Bolt, or equivalent — within the same week an idea surfaces.
• Use prototypes as the discovery artifact. A working demo in front of a tenant beats a 12-page PRD every time.
• Build internal tools, automations, and tenant-facing PoCs end-to-end. You are not just specifying — you are shipping.
• Decide what to harden into production with the integration engineering team, what to keep in prototype form, and what to throw away.

Discovery & Tenant Insight

• Run discovery directly with tenants, property managers, and operations teams. Live in the field, not in workshops.
• Use AI in your own workflow — feedback synthesis, competitive scanning, copy generation, data exploration, and SQL against tenant analytics.
• Translate real estate operational reality into product decisions. Understand how leases, service charges, move-ins, and tenant communications actually work — not in theory, but in practice.

Prioritization & Stakeholder Translation

• Own a portfolio of small bets, not a single quarterly roadmap. Velocity comes from optionality, not from planning.
• Be the connective tissue between business stakeholders and the AI-native build team. Shield builders from noise and surface signals.
• Define the few KPIs that actually matter for tenant adoption and operational impact. Instrument them yourself when needed.
• Make pragmatic build / buy / kill calls fast. A killed idea this week is more valuable than a maybe-someday idea on a roadmap.

Your Profile

Experience & Expertise

• 4+ years shipping product, ideally in B2C or self-service B2B platforms. We care more about what you have shipped than how long you have been doing it.
• Hard requirement: a working portfolio of AI-built prototypes. You must be able to demonstrate something you personally built and shipped in the last 90 days using tools like Claude, Cursor, Replit, v0, or similar.
• Technical literacy that goes beyond "can talk to engineers": comfortable reading APIs, sketching data models, writing SQL, debugging your own prototypes, and deploying to Vercel or similar.
• Strong tenant or end-user empathy and direct discovery instincts. You have run sessions with real users in the last 6 months.
• Real estate, proptech, property management, or tenant services experience is a meaningful advantage — not just "nice to have". Domain familiarity translates directly into shipping speed.
• Comfortable working without traditional PM artifacts. You can write a clear spec when needed, but you do not lead with one.

Core Competencies

• Builder Instinct: You ship working artifacts as your primary form of communication. Documents are a fallback, not a first move.
• AI Tool Fluency: You select and apply the right AI tool for the right job. You evaluate new ones critically and adopt them fast when they earn it.
• Discovery Through Building: You use prototypes as the discovery medium — putting working demos in front of users instead of running theoretical workshops.
• Prioritization Under Uncertainty: You kill bad ideas quickly and double down on what is showing a signal. You are comfortable with most of your bets not paying off.
• Stakeholder Translation: You hold the line between business intent and engineering reality without becoming a bottleneck for either side.
• Real Estate Operational Curiosity: You actively want to understand how a property gets managed, where the friction lives, and what tenants actually deal with.

Who You Are

• Builder First: You measure your week in things shipped, not meetings attended.
• Comfortable Throwing Work Away: You do not get attached to ideas that did not land. The portfolio matters more than any single bet.
• Allergic to Pure-Coordinator Weeks: If your week is mostly Jira grooming and status meetings, something is wrong and you fix it.
• AI-Forward: AI tools are your default workflow, not a novelty. You experiment with new ones every month.
• Direct & Pragmatic: You push back on bad ideas — including your own — and you do it without ceremony.
• Discreet: You handle tenant data and sensitive operational information with the care it deserves, including data passing through AI systems.

Qualifications

• Working portfolio of AI-built prototypes — link required in application.
• English: business fluent.
• German: a strong advantage given the operating context.
• Relevant degree in any field, or equivalent demonstrated experience. Degree is not gating; portfolio is.
• Familiarity with tools such as Claude, Cursor, Replit, Figma Make, Vercel, Supabase, Notion, Linear, and modern analytics platforms.

Your Perspective

• Interesting, varied and broad range of tasks in one of the largest real estate companies in Germany and Europe
• Individual training and coaching for professional and personal development in our Academy and with our in-house business coach
• Professionally equipped, in-house gym with trainers and courses at the headquarters in
