About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset.
About the role
Fundraise Up is building high-trust donation and fundraising experiences that help nonprofits grow their impact. We’re looking for a UX Researcher to join our Product Research Team and raise the quality, speed, and decision-making power of research across the product.
This role combines classic UX research and Product Discovery: new markets, segments, and product opportunities. You will work across both B2C and B2B contexts: donor-facing experiences (B2C) and nonprofit/org-facing workflows (B2B).
What You'll Do
- Take a research initiative from the quarterly plan and run it end-to-end: intake brief → write methodology → conduct research → analyse → synthesize → present → push actions.
- Choose the right method: interviews, usability tests, concept tests, surveys, desk research, competitive scans or others — based on uncertainty level, business goals, and timeline.
- Set up the mechanics: access to tools/data, participant scheduling and confirmations, session logistics, note-taking, recording, and documentation — no hand-holding.
- Be the cross-team “glue”: proactively collect hypotheses and context from Sales, Customer Success, Support, Marketing, Analytics, and turn them into testable research questions.
- Stay close to product analytics: monitor dashboards and reports, work with analysts to spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and prioritize what to validate with research.
- Produce outputs people can use immediately: key findings, decisions, trade-offs, risks, and clear recommendations, with supporting evidence (quotes, clips, metrics).
- Keep an internal pulse: regularly review existing research, past studies, competitor insights, and synthesize what’s already known before running something new.
- Be the user best friend: ensure user needs and constraints are represented in product decisions – not just opinions.
Requirements
- Proven experience running research end-to-end with high ownership.
- Strong methodological toolkit and judgment: you can pick the right method for the question, given business goals, timelines, and uncertainty, and explain trade-offs clearly.
- Experience working across both B2C and B2B products and audiences.
- Fluent English — all participants are English-speaking; you moderate and present in English.
- Can work with analytics: read dashboards, spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and validate them via research; PostHog/Tableau is a plus.
- Regularly collect input from Sales, CS, Support, Marketing, Analytics and turn it into testable research questions.
- High research quality bar: structured methodology, and ethical practice.
- Use recruiting platforms and handle logistics yourself: access, scheduling, confirmations, tool setup, etc.
- Use AI tools to speed up ops and synthesis (guides, notes, tagging/themes, survey drafts, summaries) while keeping human judgment and methodological rigor where it matters.
- You don’t need to be a marketer, but you should understand core terms and how they affect research and insights.
- Be the team’s source of new knowledge: run a “research radar” across internal learnings, market/competitor moves, and high-signal UX/product sources, then share regular updates so the team stays current and avoids blind spots.
- Bring exceptional empathy and care for people: our users are nonprofits and donors—people doing good in the world—so you approach participants with respect, sensitivity, and high ethical standards.
Strong plus
- NN/g certifications.
- Academic/scientific research background (graduate/PhD track).
- PostHog / Tableau (or similar analytics tools).
- Productboard (or other insights repository tools).
- Mentoring/teaching (workshops, onboarding, sharing research craft).
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution
Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- English learning courses
- Relevant professional education
- Gym or swimming pool
- Co-working
- Remote working

A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
Our backend is powered by Node.js (Koa, NestJS) and MongoDB. The frontend stack includes Webpack, Vue.js, and React, with nearly all code written in TypeScript. For high-throughput messaging and background processing, we use Kafka (for millions of events) and Bull (Redis). Analytics data is stored in ClickHouse, and we use Elasticsearch for search.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset. Biweekly engineering forums give space to share learnings and celebrate technical achievements. You’ll be joining a team where quality, mentorship, and mutual respect come first.
About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution
Benefits
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 22 paid vacation days per year
- Up to 14 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.
- €50 monthly allowance to cover internet and mobile phone expenses

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all.

We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.

About the Role
This role is the primary owner of how the product team operates. You ensure quality and velocity don't trade off against each other — by building, scaling, and protecting the processes that make good product decisions repeatable.
You'll report directly to the CPO and serve as the main entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritizing, routing, and leading the ones that matter most. You focus on what scales across the whole product team, not what solves a one-off problem for one squad.
The Product Ops team is two people: you and one manager — with plans to grow. This is a genuinely hands-on role — you'll be doing real work, not just directing it. Expect to own processes end-to-end, from design through adoption.
What You'll Own
- Be the primary entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritize them, decide what gets resourced, and route what doesn't fit.
- Lead major cross-team process changes: design the frame, align stakeholders, and drive adoption.
- Own cross-team processes across the Product department (Product, Design, and Analytics) where central coordination is required — quarterly planning, goal decomposition, metrics alignment.
- Build and maintain shared frameworks and artifacts (prioritization logic, metrics models, decision templates) that improve clarity and consistency across the product team.
- Identify and escalate systemic process problems that require cross-team or leadership-level decisions.
- Drive AI automation of product workflows — identify high-leverage opportunities, build or oversee solutions, measure against baselines, and decide what scales across the team.
- Manage Product Ops focus and load: ensure the team works on things that move the needle, not reactive noise.
What Success Looks Like
- Product Ops initiatives have a transparent, understood focus — no one wonders what the function is for.
- Shared processes are adopted and used consistently across product teams (measured by adoption rate and CSAT).
- Operational noise decreases — fewer ad-hoc requests, less manual coordination, fewer alignment gaps.
- Product decisions become more predictable and higher quality — even as the company keeps scaling fast.
What We're Looking For
- Process design experience. You've built or significantly improved operational processes in a product or tech environment. You think in systems, not tasks.
- Cross-functional influence. You know how to align people who don't report to you. You bring clarity to ambiguous situations and can drive decisions across teams.
- Metrics-driven. You track adoption and satisfaction as seriously as any product team tracks conversion. You know how to set a baseline and measure change.
- Bias toward scalability. You distinguish between fixing a one-off problem and building something the whole team can use. When both paths are possible, you ask: will this still work when the team doubles?
- Full ownership of your domain. You take accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. Blockers are your problem to solve — not someone else's.
- AI automation fluency. You've used AI tools to automate workflows or processes — and you can identify where automation creates real leverage vs. where it's noise.
- Fluent English (C1+). We're a mixed company — the product team works in Russian, but you'll have English-language meetings daily and work with English documentation constantly.
Bonus Points
- Product fluency — you understand how product teams work: discovery, prioritization, planning cycles, roadmap trade-offs
- Background in product operations or program management
- Familiarity with OKR frameworks, quarterly planning processes, or company-wide goal alignment
- Comfortable working in a fast-scaling environment without a defined playbook for everything
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 23 paid vacation days per year
- 11 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
Our backend is powered by Node.js (Koa, NestJS) and MongoDB. The frontend stack includes Webpack, Vue.js, and React, with nearly all code written in TypeScript. For high-throughput messaging and background processing, we use Kafka (for millions of events) and Bull (Redis). Analytics data is stored in ClickHouse, and we use Elasticsearch for search.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset. Biweekly engineering forums give space to share learnings and celebrate technical achievements. You’ll be joining a team where quality, mentorship, and mutual respect come first.
About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution
Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up — a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. Our platform is trusted by leading nonprofits including UNICEF and the Alzheimer’s Association, with a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms.
About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a Product Manager who will own the internationalization of our product — taking what works brilliantly in the US and successfully replicating it in the UK and Europe.
This is a high-ownership, delivery-intensive role. You will navigate regulatory, legal, payment, and localization requirements across markets, coordinate multiple product and GTM teams, and drive end-to-end launches. You are the person who gets things across the finish line.
What You’ll Do
- Identify and prioritize international markets based on volume potential and ease of entry — combining market research with business judgment.
- Define the full scope of product adaptations required: local compliance, payment methods, language/UX localization, regulatory requirements.
- Act as the central coordinator across legal, finance, product, and GTM — translating scope into delivery by aligning multiple teams around a shared timeline.
- Work closely with Product Owners who will execute delivery; your job is to orchestrate and unblock, not to disappear after scoping.
- Own the launch end-to-end — from market selection through go-live — and track outcomes post-launch.
- Communicate progress, risks, and learnings to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Product Manager with a track record of shipping in complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
- Strong delivery mindset: you get things done, meet commitments, and treat alignment gaps as your problem to solve.
- Experience working at both a large company (process, structure, scale) and a small/startup company (speed, ambiguity, hands-on work).
- Prior experience with product localization, internationalization, or multi-market expansion.
- Comfortable working without a dedicated development team — you lead through influence across shared resources.
- Experience collaborating with GTM teams (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships, CS).
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in payments, processing, or banking (deep familiarity with regulatory environments).
- Experience launching products in the UK or EU markets specifically.
- Comfort operating without defined processes — you build the system while delivering the result.
Why Join Us
- Large, direct impact on the company’s international growth trajectory.
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people.
- Transparent culture — we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next.
- Equity options and long-term focus.
Benefits
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family

About Fundraise Up
Fundraise Up is a global fundraising platform that powers tens of millions of dollars in donations every month for leading nonprofits — including UNICEF, the Alzheimer's Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. We're known for product quality, performance, and a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
As we scale the core, we're deliberately investing in high-risk, high-upside product bets that could define the future of digital fundraising. That's where the Lab comes in.
The Lab
The Lab is Fundraise Up's 0→1 track. It operates ahead of the roadmap, investigating opportunities driven by new technologies, AI, data, and infrastructure shifts — often before there's a clear buyer or demand signal.
The Lab does not run scaled products. It finds, validates, and hands off the ones worth scaling.
The Role
This is a player-coach role. You'll build and lead the Lab function while personally owning 1–2 of the highest-leverage bets.
Your job is to reduce uncertainty, not ship features. You'll own ideas end-to-end — from hypothesis framing through fast experiments to explicit investment decisions: scale, pivot, or kill. Most ideas should die early. A few may graduate into Core or New Products with strong evidence behind them.
Success = learning velocity, decision quality, and team leverage — not output volume or adoption.
Key Responsibilities
- Portfolio & Strategy: Own the Lab bet portfolio. Size opportunities, set entry/exit criteria, and make decisive scale/iterate/kill calls. Maintain a visible exploration backlog.
- Experimentation: Frame experiments around the single riskiest assumption. Define kill criteria before building. Choose the right fidelity (prototype, spike, wizard-of-oz, no-code, live pilot). Ship fast and protect learning speed.
- Investment Decisions: Synthesize results into opinionated recommendations. Communicate what was tested, learned, and what remains unknown. Kill zombie initiatives — every experiment ends with a decision.
- Handoffs: When a bet shows strong signal, prepare validated hypotheses, evidence packs, risks, and a proposed scaling model. Transfer ownership fully.
- GTM & Partnerships: Source and close lighthouse pilots with clear scope, metrics, and off-ramps. Identify enabling partners and join strategic calls to move pilots to business validation.
- Team: Build a repeatable Lab Operating System (pipeline reviews, kill reviews, demo days, post-mortems).
- AI & Transparency: Use AI tools to accelerate research, synthesis, and prototyping. Explore AI-enabled product ideas with a realistic lens on cost, data, and accuracy. Publish decision memos and share failed experiments openly.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- 3–5 high-risk bets tested with clear outcomes (scaled, iterated, or killed with rationale)
- 1–2 bets graduated to New Products or Core with evidence packs and clean handoffs
- A transparent kill list that saves months of misdirected effort
- A functioning Lab team with clear ownership, experiment discipline, and stakeholder trust
- A repeatable Lab Operating System that compounds learning
Requirements
Experience (Must-Have)
- 8–10+ years in Product with a proven 0→1 track record
- Personally owned multiple high-risk bets with explicit go/kill decisions
- 3+ years managing PMs (player-coach or group lead)
- Fluency across validation tools: discovery, prototypes, engineered MVPs — knows when each is appropriate
- Cross-functional leadership across Eng/Design/Analytics and GTM; comfort in pre-sales/pilot settings
- Experience where learning speed mattered more than polish and real downside risk was present
AI & Technical Judgment (Critical)
- Hands-on experience using AI as a product-building and exploration tool
- Can prototype with LLMs, APIs, or modern tooling and ship a functional prototype quickly
- Able to scope AI experiments realistically and judge feasibility without full engineering validation
- Can spot capability shifts and turn them into testable hypotheses
- Evaluates build vs. buy vs. partner decisions
This background often comes from: founder/co-founder roles, early-stage startups, internal labs/innovation teams, or new market bets inside larger companies.
Bonus
- Ex-founder with a clear ship/scale/kill story and measurable outcomes
- Payments, fintech, e-commerce, or nonprofit domain experience
- EU market familiarity (PSD2/SCA, data/privacy norms) and additional languages
This Role Is Not For You If…
- Your background is mostly in roadmap-driven delivery with stable scope
- You prefer incremental optimization of mature products
- You need long planning cycles and large teams to move
- You avoid pilot conversations or hesitate to ask customers for real commitments
- Ambiguity makes you uncomfortable
Why Work With Us
- Real ownership over high-impact bets with the authority and team to pursue them
- Leadership that values clear thinking over activity
- Permission — and expectation — to kill bad ideas early
- Access to real customers, real data, and real constraints
- Flat structure, transparent culture, and equity participation
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- 31 days of paid time off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home office setup assistance
- English learning courses
- Professional education budget
- Gym or swimming pool membership
- Co-working support
- Fully remote work

About Fundraise Up

We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
About the Role
This role is the primary owner of how the product team operates. You ensure quality and velocity don't trade off against each other — by building, scaling, and protecting the processes that make good product decisions repeatable.
You'll report directly to the CPO and serve as the main entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritizing, routing, and leading the ones that matter most. You focus on what scales across the whole product team, not what solves a one-off problem for one squad.
The Product Ops team is two people: you and one manager — with plans to grow. This is a genuinely hands-on role — you'll be doing real work, not just directing it. Expect to own processes end-to-end, from design through adoption.
What You'll Own
- Be the primary entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritize them, decide what gets resourced, and route what doesn't fit.
- Lead major cross-team process changes: design the frame, align stakeholders, and drive adoption.
- Own cross-team processes across the Product department (Product, Design, and Analytics) where central coordination is required — quarterly planning, goal decomposition, metrics alignment.
- Build and maintain shared frameworks and artifacts (prioritization logic, metrics models, decision templates) that improve clarity and consistency across the product team.
- Identify and escalate systemic process problems that require cross-team or leadership-level decisions.
- Drive AI automation of product workflows — identify high-leverage opportunities, build or oversee solutions, measure against baselines, and decide what scales across the team.
- Manage Product Ops focus and load: ensure the team works on things that move the needle, not reactive noise.
What Success Looks Like
- Product Ops initiatives have a transparent, understood focus — no one wonders what the function is for.
- Shared processes are adopted and used consistently across product teams (measured by adoption rate and CSAT).
- Operational noise decreases — fewer ad-hoc requests, less manual coordination, fewer alignment gaps.
- Product decisions become more predictable and higher quality — even as the company keeps scaling fast.
What We're Looking For
- Process design experience. You've built or significantly improved operational processes in a product or tech environment. You think in systems, not tasks.
- Cross-functional influence. You know how to align people who don't report to you. You bring clarity to ambiguous situations and can drive decisions across teams.
- Metrics-driven. You track adoption and satisfaction as seriously as any product team tracks conversion. You know how to set a baseline and measure change.
- Bias toward scalability. You distinguish between fixing a one-off problem and building something the whole team can use. When both paths are possible, you ask: will this still work when the team doubles?
- Full ownership of your domain. You take accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. Blockers are your problem to solve — not someone else's.
- AI automation fluency. You've used AI tools to automate workflows or processes — and you can identify where automation creates real leverage vs. where it's noise.
- Fluent English (C1+). We're a mixed company — the product team works in Russian, but you'll have English-language meetings daily and work with English documentation constantly.
Bonus Points
- Product fluency — you understand how product teams work: discovery, prioritization, planning cycles, roadmap trade-offs
- Background in product operations or program management
- Familiarity with OKR frameworks, quarterly planning processes, or company-wide goal alignment
- Comfortable working in a fast-scaling environment without a defined playbook for everything
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 22 paid vacation days per year
- Up to 14 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.
- €50 monthly allowance to cover internet and mobile phone expenses

About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a senior Product Manager to own a strategic direction within Core Markets — one that requires thinking in years, not quarters.
This is an individual contributor (IC) role with no dedicated dev team of your own. You will work closely with GTM, and other Product Managers to identify the biggest opportunities, build conviction from evidence, and shape the long-term product strategy for your domain. The person who comes in will define what this area looks like — that’s both the challenge and the opportunity.
You are not here to execute a roadmap that already exists. You are here to figure out what the roadmap should be, make the case, and drive it forward.
What You’ll Do
- Define the long-term product strategy for your domain within Core Markets — from initial research and market analysis through to a coherent, evidence-backed direction.
- Turn heterogeneous customer and market signals into structured, rigorous cases that can drive organizational decisions — not “I talked to five customers”, but a properly constructed argument.
- Work closely with GTM to understand market dynamics, competitive landscape, and go-to-market opportunities in your domain.
- Identify and size the most impactful product bets; present strategy, hypotheses, and learnings to leadership and stakeholders.
- Collaborate with Product Owners who handle delivery; your job is to set direction and create conviction, not to manage sprints.
- Build business cases with a clear commercial lens: TAM, revenue opportunity, risk, prioritization.
Requirements
- Senior Product Manager or Head of Product level, with experience owning large, strategic product areas.
- Exceptional at structuring ambiguous problems — you can take messy information and produce a clear, defensible framework.
- Strong business and commercial thinking: you connect product decisions to revenue and market outcomes.
- Experience working at both a large company and a small/startup company.
- Comfortable as an IC: you’re excited to contribute individually at a high level rather than manage a team.
- Experience collaborating with GTM (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships) and influencing without authority.
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in management consulting followed by a move into product — this combination is highly valued.
- Experience working with or in international teams
- Prior experience as a “Principal PM” or equivalent senior IC role.
- Comfort operating in a fast-scaling environment with limited defined processes.
Why Join Us
- Enormous scope of impact: the business is growing fast and this role has a direct line to its trajectory.
- Work directly with the CPO and leadership on defining the future of the product.
- Flat structure, no politics, genuine ownership.
- Transparent culture and long-term equity upside.

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up — a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. Our platform is trusted by leading nonprofits including UNICEF and the Alzheimer’s Association, with a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms.
About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a Product Manager who will own the internationalization of our product — taking what works brilliantly in the US and successfully replicating it in the UK and Europe.
This is a high-ownership, delivery-intensive role. You will navigate regulatory, legal, payment, and localization requirements across markets, coordinate multiple product and GTM teams, and drive end-to-end launches. You are the person who gets things across the finish line.
What You’ll Do
- Identify and prioritize international markets based on volume potential and ease of entry — combining market research with business judgment.
- Define the full scope of product adaptations required: local compliance, payment methods, language/UX localization, regulatory requirements.
- Act as the central coordinator across legal, finance, product, and GTM — translating scope into delivery by aligning multiple teams around a shared timeline.
- Work closely with Product Owners who will execute delivery; your job is to orchestrate and unblock, not to disappear after scoping.
- Own the launch end-to-end — from market selection through go-live — and track outcomes post-launch.
- Communicate progress, risks, and learnings to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Product Manager with a track record of shipping in complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
- Strong delivery mindset: you get things done, meet commitments, and treat alignment gaps as your problem to solve.
- Experience working at both a large company (process, structure, scale) and a small/startup company (speed, ambiguity, hands-on work).
- Prior experience with product localization, internationalization, or multi-market expansion.
- Comfortable working without a dedicated development team — you lead through influence across shared resources.
- Experience collaborating with GTM teams (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships, CS).
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in payments, processing, or banking (deep familiarity with regulatory environments).
- Experience launching products in the UK or EU markets specifically.
- Comfort operating without defined processes — you build the system while delivering the result.
Why Join Us
- Large, direct impact on the company’s international growth trajectory.
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people.
- Transparent culture — we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next.
- Equity options and long-term focus.
Benefits
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 20 paid vacation days per year
- 15 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
About the Role
This role is the primary owner of how the product team operates. You ensure quality and velocity don't trade off against each other — by building, scaling, and protecting the processes that make good product decisions repeatable.
You'll report directly to the CPO and serve as the main entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritizing, routing, and leading the ones that matter most. You focus on what scales across the whole product team, not what solves a one-off problem for one squad.
The Product Ops team is two people: you and one manager — with plans to grow. This is a genuinely hands-on role — you'll be doing real work, not just directing it. Expect to own processes end-to-end, from design through adoption.
What You'll Own
- Be the primary entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritize them, decide what gets resourced, and route what doesn't fit.
- Lead major cross-team process changes: design the frame, align stakeholders, and drive adoption.
- Own cross-team processes across the Product department (Product, Design, and Analytics) where central coordination is required — quarterly planning, goal decomposition, metrics alignment.
- Build and maintain shared frameworks and artifacts (prioritization logic, metrics models, decision templates) that improve clarity and consistency across the product team.
- Identify and escalate systemic process problems that require cross-team or leadership-level decisions.
- Drive AI automation of product workflows — identify high-leverage opportunities, build or oversee solutions, measure against baselines, and decide what scales across the team.
- Manage Product Ops focus and load: ensure the team works on things that move the needle, not reactive noise.
What Success Looks Like
- Product Ops initiatives have a transparent, understood focus — no one wonders what the function is for.
- Shared processes are adopted and used consistently across product teams (measured by adoption rate and CSAT).
- Operational noise decreases — fewer ad-hoc requests, less manual coordination, fewer alignment gaps.
- Product decisions become more predictable and higher quality — even as the company keeps scaling fast.
What We're Looking For
- Process design experience. You've built or significantly improved operational processes in a product or tech environment. You think in systems, not tasks.
- Cross-functional influence. You know how to align people who don't report to you. You bring clarity to ambiguous situations and can drive decisions across teams.
- Metrics-driven. You track adoption and satisfaction as seriously as any product team tracks conversion. You know how to set a baseline and measure change.
- Bias toward scalability. You distinguish between fixing a one-off problem and building something the whole team can use. When both paths are possible, you ask: will this still work when the team doubles?
- Full ownership of your domain. You take accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. Blockers are your problem to solve — not someone else's.
- AI automation fluency. You've used AI tools to automate workflows or processes — and you can identify where automation creates real leverage vs. where it's noise.
- Fluent English (C1+). We're a mixed company — the product team works in Russian, but you'll have English-language meetings daily and work with English documentation constantly.
Bonus Points
- Product fluency — you understand how product teams work: discovery, prioritization, planning cycles, roadmap trade-offs
- Background in product operations or program management
- Familiarity with OKR frameworks, quarterly planning processes, or company-wide goal alignment
- Comfortable working in a fast-scaling environment without a defined playbook for everything
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- 31 days of paid time off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home office setup assistance
- English learning courses
- Professional education budget
- Gym or swimming pool membership
- Co-working support
- Fully remote work

We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, national origin, disability, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law in the countries where we operate.

Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset.
About the role
Fundraise Up is building high-trust donation and fundraising experiences that help nonprofits grow their impact. We’re looking for a UX Researcher to join our Product Research Team and raise the quality, speed, and decision-making power of research across the product.
This role combines classic UX research and Product Discovery: new markets, segments, and product opportunities. You will work across both B2C and B2B contexts: donor-facing experiences (B2C) and nonprofit/org-facing workflows (B2B).
What You'll Do
- Take a research initiative from the quarterly plan and run it end-to-end: intake brief → write methodology → conduct research → analyse → synthesize → present → push actions.
- Choose the right method: interviews, usability tests, concept tests, surveys, desk research, competitive scans or others — based on uncertainty level, business goals, and timeline.
- Set up the mechanics: access to tools/data, participant scheduling and confirmations, session logistics, note-taking, recording, and documentation — no hand-holding.
- Be the cross-team “glue”: proactively collect hypotheses and context from Sales, Customer Success, Support, Marketing, Analytics, and turn them into testable research questions.
- Stay close to product analytics: monitor dashboards and reports, work with analysts to spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and prioritize what to validate with research.
- Produce outputs people can use immediately: key findings, decisions, trade-offs, risks, and clear recommendations, with supporting evidence (quotes, clips, metrics).
- Keep an internal pulse: regularly review existing research, past studies, competitor insights, and synthesize what’s already known before running something new.
- Be the user best friend: ensure user needs and constraints are represented in product decisions – not just opinions.
Requirements
- Proven experience running research end-to-end with high ownership.
- Strong methodological toolkit and judgment: you can pick the right method for the question, given business goals, timelines, and uncertainty, and explain trade-offs clearly.
- Experience working across both B2C and B2B products and audiences.
- Fluent English — all participants are English-speaking; you moderate and present in English.
- Can work with analytics: read dashboards, spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and validate them via research; PostHog/Tableau is a plus.
- Regularly collect input from Sales, CS, Support, Marketing, Analytics and turn it into testable research questions.
- High research quality bar: structured methodology, and ethical practice.
- Use recruiting platforms and handle logistics yourself: access, scheduling, confirmations, tool setup, etc.
- Use AI tools to speed up ops and synthesis (guides, notes, tagging/themes, survey drafts, summaries) while keeping human judgment and methodological rigor where it matters.
- You don’t need to be a marketer, but you should understand core terms and how they affect research and insights.
- Be the team’s source of new knowledge: run a “research radar” across internal learnings, market/competitor moves, and high-signal UX/product sources, then share regular updates so the team stays current and avoids blind spots.
- Bring exceptional empathy and care for people: our users are nonprofits and donors—people doing good in the world—so you approach participants with respect, sensitivity, and high ethical standards.
Strong plus
- NN/g certifications.
- Academic/scientific research background (graduate/PhD track).
- PostHog / Tableau (or similar analytics tools).
- Productboard (or other insights repository tools).
- Mentoring/teaching (workshops, onboarding, sharing research craft).
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution
Benefits
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 23 paid vacation days per year

- 5 company-paid sick leave days
- English learning courses.

About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds

Director of Product, Lab

About Fundraise Up
Fundraise Up is a global fundraising platform that powers tens of millions of dollars in donations every month for leading nonprofits — including UNICEF, the Alzheimer's Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. We're known for product quality, performance, and a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
As we scale the core, we're deliberately investing in high-risk, high-upside product bets that could define the future of digital fundraising. That's where the Lab comes in.
The Lab
The Lab is Fundraise Up's 0→1 track. It operates ahead of the roadmap, investigating opportunities driven by new technologies, AI, data, and infrastructure shifts — often before there's a clear buyer or demand signal.
The Lab does not run scaled products. It finds, validates, and hands off the ones worth scaling.
The Role
This is a player-coach role. You'll build and lead the Lab function while personally owning 1–2 of the highest-leverage bets.
Your job is to reduce uncertainty, not ship features. You'll own ideas end-to-end — from hypothesis framing through fast experiments to explicit investment decisions: scale, pivot, or kill. Most ideas should die early. A few may graduate into Core or New Products with strong evidence behind them.
Success = learning velocity, decision quality, and team leverage — not output volume or adoption.
Key Responsibilities
- Portfolio & Strategy: Own the Lab bet portfolio. Size opportunities, set entry/exit criteria, and make decisive scale/iterate/kill calls. Maintain a visible exploration backlog.
- Experimentation: Frame experiments around the single riskiest assumption. Define kill criteria before building. Choose the right fidelity (prototype, spike, wizard-of-oz, no-code, live pilot). Ship fast and protect learning speed.
- Investment Decisions: Synthesize results into opinionated recommendations. Communicate what was tested, learned, and what remains unknown. Kill zombie initiatives — every experiment ends with a decision.
- Handoffs: When a bet shows strong signal, prepare validated hypotheses, evidence packs, risks, and a proposed scaling model. Transfer ownership fully.
- GTM & Partnerships: Source and close lighthouse pilots with clear scope, metrics, and off-ramps. Identify enabling partners and join strategic calls to move pilots to business validation.
- Team: Build a repeatable Lab Operating System (pipeline reviews, kill reviews, demo days, post-mortems).
- AI & Transparency: Use AI tools to accelerate research, synthesis, and prototyping. Explore AI-enabled product ideas with a realistic lens on cost, data, and accuracy. Publish decision memos and share failed experiments openly.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- 3–5 high-risk bets tested with clear outcomes (scaled, iterated, or killed with rationale)
- 1–2 bets graduated to New Products or Core with evidence packs and clean handoffs
- A transparent kill list that saves months of misdirected effort
- A functioning Lab team with clear ownership, experiment discipline, and stakeholder trust
- A repeatable Lab Operating System that compounds learning
Requirements
Experience (Must-Have)
- 8–10+ years in Product with a proven 0→1 track record
- Personally owned multiple high-risk bets with explicit go/kill decisions
- 3+ years managing PMs (player-coach or group lead)
- Fluency across validation tools: discovery, prototypes, engineered MVPs — knows when each is appropriate
- Cross-functional leadership across Eng/Design/Analytics and GTM; comfort in pre-sales/pilot settings
- Experience where learning speed mattered more than polish and real downside risk was present
AI & Technical Judgment (Critical)
- Hands-on experience using AI as a product-building and exploration tool
- Can prototype with LLMs, APIs, or modern tooling and ship a functional prototype quickly
- Able to scope AI experiments realistically and judge feasibility without full engineering validation
- Can spot capability shifts and turn them into testable hypotheses
- Evaluates build vs. buy vs. partner decisions
This background often comes from: founder/co-founder roles, early-stage startups, internal labs/innovation teams, or new market bets inside larger companies.
Bonus
- Ex-founder with a clear ship/scale/kill story and measurable outcomes
- Payments, fintech, e-commerce, or nonprofit domain experience
- EU market familiarity (PSD2/SCA, data/privacy norms) and additional languages
This Role Is Not For You If…
- Your background is mostly in roadmap-driven delivery with stable scope
- You prefer incremental optimization of mature products
- You need long planning cycles and large teams to move
- You avoid pilot conversations or hesitate to ask customers for real commitments
- Ambiguity makes you uncomfortable
Why Work With Us
- Real ownership over high-impact bets with the authority and team to pursue them
- Leadership that values clear thinking over activity
- Permission — and expectation — to kill bad ideas early
- Access to real customers, real data, and real constraints
- Flat structure, transparent culture, and equity participation
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 23 paid vacation days per year
- 11 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
About the Role
This role is the primary owner of how the product team operates. You ensure quality and velocity don't trade off against each other — by building, scaling, and protecting the processes that make good product decisions repeatable.
You'll report directly to the CPO and serve as the main entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritizing, routing, and leading the ones that matter most. You focus on what scales across the whole product team, not what solves a one-off problem for one squad.
The Product Ops team is two people: you and one manager — with plans to grow. This is a genuinely hands-on role — you'll be doing real work, not just directing it. Expect to own processes end-to-end, from design through adoption.
What You'll Own
- Be the primary entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritize them, decide what gets resourced, and route what doesn't fit.
- Lead major cross-team process changes: design the frame, align stakeholders, and drive adoption.
- Own cross-team processes across the Product department (Product, Design, and Analytics) where central coordination is required — quarterly planning, goal decomposition, metrics alignment.
- Build and maintain shared frameworks and artifacts (prioritization logic, metrics models, decision templates) that improve clarity and consistency across the product team.
- Identify and escalate systemic process problems that require cross-team or leadership-level decisions.
- Drive AI automation of product workflows — identify high-leverage opportunities, build or oversee solutions, measure against baselines, and decide what scales across the team.
- Manage Product Ops focus and load: ensure the team works on things that move the needle, not reactive noise.
What Success Looks Like
- Product Ops initiatives have a transparent, understood focus — no one wonders what the function is for.
- Shared processes are adopted and used consistently across product teams (measured by adoption rate and CSAT).
- Operational noise decreases — fewer ad-hoc requests, less manual coordination, fewer alignment gaps.
- Product decisions become more predictable and higher quality — even as the company keeps scaling fast.
What We're Looking For
- Process design experience. You've built or significantly improved operational processes in a product or tech environment. You think in systems, not tasks.
- Cross-functional influence. You know how to align people who don't report to you. You bring clarity to ambiguous situations and can drive decisions across teams.
- Metrics-driven. You track adoption and satisfaction as seriously as any product team tracks conversion. You know how to set a baseline and measure change.
- Bias toward scalability. You distinguish between fixing a one-off problem and building something the whole team can use. When both paths are possible, you ask: will this still work when the team doubles?
- Full ownership of your domain. You take accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. Blockers are your problem to solve — not someone else's.
- AI automation fluency. You've used AI tools to automate workflows or processes — and you can identify where automation creates real leverage vs. where it's noise.
- Fluent English (C1+). We're a mixed company — the product team works in Russian, but you'll have English-language meetings daily and work with English documentation constantly.
Bonus Points
- Product fluency — you understand how product teams work: discovery, prioritization, planning cycles, roadmap trade-offs
- Background in product operations or program management
- Familiarity with OKR frameworks, quarterly planning processes, or company-wide goal alignment
- Comfortable working in a fast-scaling environment without a defined playbook for everything
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- 31 days of paid time off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home office setup assistance
- English learning courses
- Professional education budget
- Gym or swimming pool membership
- Co-working support
- Fully remote work

Product Manager, Core Markets

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up — a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Our platform powers tens of millions of dollars in monthly donations for nonprofits including UNICEF and the Alzheimer’s Association, with a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a senior Product Manager to own a strategic direction within Core Markets — one that requires thinking in years, not quarters.
This is an individual contributor (IC) role with no dedicated dev team of your own. You will work closely with GTM, and other Product Managers to identify the biggest opportunities, build conviction from evidence, and shape the long-term product strategy for your domain. The person who comes in will define what this area looks like — that’s both the challenge and the opportunity.
You are not here to execute a roadmap that already exists. You are here to figure out what the roadmap should be, make the case, and drive it forward.
What You’ll Do
- Define the long-term product strategy for your domain within Core Markets — from initial research and market analysis through to a coherent, evidence-backed direction.
- Turn heterogeneous customer and market signals into structured, rigorous cases that can drive organizational decisions — not “I talked to five customers”, but a properly constructed argument.
- Work closely with GTM to understand market dynamics, competitive landscape, and go-to-market opportunities in your domain.
- Identify and size the most impactful product bets; present strategy, hypotheses, and learnings to leadership and stakeholders.
- Collaborate with Product Owners who handle delivery; your job is to set direction and create conviction, not to manage sprints.
- Build business cases with a clear commercial lens: TAM, revenue opportunity, risk, prioritization.
Requirements
- Senior Product Manager or Head of Product level, with experience owning large, strategic product areas.
- Exceptional at structuring ambiguous problems — you can take messy information and produce a clear, defensible framework.
- Strong business and commercial thinking: you connect product decisions to revenue and market outcomes.
- Experience working at both a large company and a small/startup company.
- Comfortable as an IC: you’re excited to contribute individually at a high level rather than manage a team.
- Experience collaborating with GTM (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships) and influencing without authority.
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in management consulting followed by a move into product — this combination is highly valued.
- Experience working with or in international teams
- Prior experience as a “Principal PM” or equivalent senior IC role.
- Comfort operating in a fast-scaling environment with limited defined processes.
Why Join Us
- Enormous scope of impact: the business is growing fast and this role has a direct line to its trajectory.
- Work directly with the CPO and leadership on defining the future of the product.
- Flat structure, no politics, genuine ownership.
- Transparent culture and long-term equity upside.
Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.

A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
Our backend is powered by Node.js (Koa, NestJS) and MongoDB. The frontend stack includes Webpack, Vue.js, and React, with nearly all code written in TypeScript. For high-throughput messaging and background processing, we use Kafka (for millions of events) and Bull (Redis). Analytics data is stored in ClickHouse, and we use Elasticsearch for search.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset. Biweekly engineering forums give space to share learnings and celebrate technical achievements. You’ll be joining a team where quality, mentorship, and mutual respect come first.
About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution
Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.

About Fundraise Up
Fundraise Up is a global fundraising platform that powers tens of millions of dollars in donations every month for leading nonprofits — including UNICEF, the Alzheimer's Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. We're known for product quality, performance, and a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
As we scale the core, we're deliberately investing in high-risk, high-upside product bets that could define the future of digital fundraising. That's where the Lab comes in.
The Lab
The Lab is Fundraise Up's 0→1 track. It operates ahead of the roadmap, investigating opportunities driven by new technologies, AI, data, and infrastructure shifts — often before there's a clear buyer or demand signal.
The Lab does not run scaled products. It finds, validates, and hands off the ones worth scaling.
The Role
This is a player-coach role. You'll build and lead the Lab function while personally owning 1–2 of the highest-leverage bets.
Your job is to reduce uncertainty, not ship features. You'll own ideas end-to-end — from hypothesis framing through fast experiments to explicit investment decisions: scale, pivot, or kill. Most ideas should die early. A few may graduate into Core or New Products with strong evidence behind them.
Success = learning velocity, decision quality, and team leverage — not output volume or adoption.
Key Responsibilities
- Portfolio & Strategy: Own the Lab bet portfolio. Size opportunities, set entry/exit criteria, and make decisive scale/iterate/kill calls. Maintain a visible exploration backlog.
- Experimentation: Frame experiments around the single riskiest assumption. Define kill criteria before building. Choose the right fidelity (prototype, spike, wizard-of-oz, no-code, live pilot). Ship fast and protect learning speed.
- Investment Decisions: Synthesize results into opinionated recommendations. Communicate what was tested, learned, and what remains unknown. Kill zombie initiatives — every experiment ends with a decision.
- Handoffs: When a bet shows strong signal, prepare validated hypotheses, evidence packs, risks, and a proposed scaling model. Transfer ownership fully.
- GTM & Partnerships: Source and close lighthouse pilots with clear scope, metrics, and off-ramps. Identify enabling partners and join strategic calls to move pilots to business validation.
- Team: Build a repeatable Lab Operating System (pipeline reviews, kill reviews, demo days, post-mortems).
- AI & Transparency: Use AI tools to accelerate research, synthesis, and prototyping. Explore AI-enabled product ideas with a realistic lens on cost, data, and accuracy. Publish decision memos and share failed experiments openly.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- 3–5 high-risk bets tested with clear outcomes (scaled, iterated, or killed with rationale)
- 1–2 bets graduated to New Products or Core with evidence packs and clean handoffs
- A transparent kill list that saves months of misdirected effort
- A functioning Lab team with clear ownership, experiment discipline, and stakeholder trust
- A repeatable Lab Operating System that compounds learning
Requirements
Experience (Must-Have)
- 8–10+ years in Product with a proven 0→1 track record
- Personally owned multiple high-risk bets with explicit go/kill decisions
- 3+ years managing PMs (player-coach or group lead)
- Fluency across validation tools: discovery, prototypes, engineered MVPs — knows when each is appropriate
- Cross-functional leadership across Eng/Design/Analytics and GTM; comfort in pre-sales/pilot settings
- Experience where learning speed mattered more than polish and real downside risk was present
AI & Technical Judgment (Critical)
- Hands-on experience using AI as a product-building and exploration tool
- Can prototype with LLMs, APIs, or modern tooling and ship a functional prototype quickly
- Able to scope AI experiments realistically and judge feasibility without full engineering validation
- Can spot capability shifts and turn them into testable hypotheses
- Evaluates build vs. buy vs. partner decisions

Bonus
- Ex-founder with a clear ship/scale/kill story and measurable outcomes
- Payments, fintech, e-commerce, or nonprofit domain experience
- EU market familiarity (PSD2/SCA, data/privacy norms) and additional languages
This Role Is Not For You If…
- Your background is mostly in roadmap-driven delivery with stable scope
- You prefer incremental optimization of mature products
- You need long planning cycles and large teams to move
- You avoid pilot conversations or hesitate to ask customers for real commitments
- Ambiguity makes you uncomfortable
Why Work With Us
- Real ownership over high-impact bets with the authority and team to pursue them
- Leadership that values clear thinking over activity
- Permission — and expectation — to kill bad ideas early
- Access to real customers, real data, and real constraints
- Flat structure, transparent culture, and equity participation
Benefits

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset.
About the role
Fundraise Up is building high-trust donation and fundraising experiences that help nonprofits grow their impact. We’re looking for a UX Researcher to join our Product Research Team and raise the quality, speed, and decision-making power of research across the product.
This role combines classic UX research and Product Discovery: new markets, segments, and product opportunities. You will work across both B2C and B2B contexts: donor-facing experiences (B2C) and nonprofit/org-facing workflows (B2B).
What You'll Do
- Take a research initiative from the quarterly plan and run it end-to-end: intake brief → write methodology → conduct research → analyse → synthesize → present → push actions.
- Choose the right method: interviews, usability tests, concept tests, surveys, desk research, competitive scans or others — based on uncertainty level, business goals, and timeline.
- Set up the mechanics: access to tools/data, participant scheduling and confirmations, session logistics, note-taking, recording, and documentation — no hand-holding.
- Be the cross-team “glue”: proactively collect hypotheses and context from Sales, Customer Success, Support, Marketing, Analytics, and turn them into testable research questions.
- Stay close to product analytics: monitor dashboards and reports, work with analysts to spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and prioritize what to validate with research.
- Produce outputs people can use immediately: key findings, decisions, trade-offs, risks, and clear recommendations, with supporting evidence (quotes, clips, metrics).
- Keep an internal pulse: regularly review existing research, past studies, competitor insights, and synthesize what’s already known before running something new.
- Be the user best friend: ensure user needs and constraints are represented in product decisions – not just opinions.
Requirements
- Proven experience running research end-to-end with high ownership.
- Strong methodological toolkit and judgment: you can pick the right method for the question, given business goals, timelines, and uncertainty, and explain trade-offs clearly.
- Experience working across both B2C and B2B products and audiences.
- Fluent English — all participants are English-speaking; you moderate and present in English.
- Can work with analytics: read dashboards, spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and validate them via research; PostHog/Tableau is a plus.
- Regularly collect input from Sales, CS, Support, Marketing, Analytics and turn it into testable research questions.
- High research quality bar: structured methodology, and ethical practice.
- Use recruiting platforms and handle logistics yourself: access, scheduling, confirmations, tool setup, etc.
- Use AI tools to speed up ops and synthesis (guides, notes, tagging/themes, survey drafts, summaries) while keeping human judgment and methodological rigor where it matters.
- You don’t need to be a marketer, but you should understand core terms and how they affect research and insights.
- Be the team’s source of new knowledge: run a “research radar” across internal learnings, market/competitor moves, and high-signal UX/product sources, then share regular updates so the team stays current and avoids blind spots.
- Bring exceptional empathy and care for people: our users are nonprofits and donors—people doing good in the world—so you approach participants with respect, sensitivity, and high ethical standards.
Strong plus
- NN/g certifications.
- Academic/scientific research background (graduate/PhD track).
- PostHog / Tableau (or similar analytics tools).
- Productboard (or other insights repository tools).
- Mentoring/teaching (workshops, onboarding, sharing research craft).
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution
Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- English learning courses
- Relevant professional education
- Gym or swimming pool
- Co-working
- Remote working

A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
Our backend is powered by Node.js (Koa, NestJS) and MongoDB. The frontend stack includes Webpack, Vue.js, and React, with nearly all code written in TypeScript. For high-throughput messaging and background processing, we use Kafka (for millions of events) and Bull (Redis). Analytics data is stored in ClickHouse, and we use Elasticsearch for search.

We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset. Biweekly engineering forums give space to share learnings and celebrate technical achievements. You’ll be joining a team where quality, mentorship, and mutual respect come first.
About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution

Our platform is trusted by leading nonprofits including UNICEF and the Alzheimer’s Association, with a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms.
About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a Product Manager who will own the internationalization of our product — taking what works brilliantly in the US and successfully replicating it in the UK and Europe.
This is a high-ownership, delivery-intensive role. You will navigate regulatory, legal, payment, and localization requirements across markets, coordinate multiple product and GTM teams, and drive end-to-end launches. You are the person who gets things across the finish line.
What You’ll Do
- Identify and prioritize international markets based on volume potential and ease of entry — combining market research with business judgment.
- Define the full scope of product adaptations required: local compliance, payment methods, language/UX localization, regulatory requirements.
- Act as the central coordinator across legal, finance, product, and GTM — translating scope into delivery by aligning multiple teams around a shared timeline.
- Work closely with Product Owners who will execute delivery; your job is to orchestrate and unblock, not to disappear after scoping.
- Own the launch end-to-end — from market selection through go-live — and track outcomes post-launch.
- Communicate progress, risks, and learnings to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Product Manager with a track record of shipping in complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
- Strong delivery mindset: you get things done, meet commitments, and treat alignment gaps as your problem to solve.
- Experience working at both a large company (process, structure, scale) and a small/startup company (speed, ambiguity, hands-on work).
- Prior experience with product localization, internationalization, or multi-market expansion.
- Comfortable working without a dedicated development team — you lead through influence across shared resources.
- Experience collaborating with GTM teams (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships, CS).
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in payments, processing, or banking (deep familiarity with regulatory environments).
- Experience launching products in the UK or EU markets specifically.
- Comfort operating without defined processes — you build the system while delivering the result.

We’re Fundraise Up — a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Our platform powers tens of millions of dollars in monthly donations for nonprofits including UNICEF and the Alzheimer’s Association, with a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a senior Product Manager to own a strategic direction within Core Markets — one that requires thinking in years, not quarters.
This is an individual contributor (IC) role with no dedicated dev team of your own. You will work closely with GTM, and other Product Managers to identify the biggest opportunities, build conviction from evidence, and shape the long-term product strategy for your domain. The person who comes in will define what this area looks like — that’s both the challenge and the opportunity.
You are not here to execute a roadmap that already exists. You are here to figure out what the roadmap should be, make the case, and drive it forward.
What You’ll Do
- Define the long-term product strategy for your domain within Core Markets — from initial research and market analysis through to a coherent, evidence-backed direction.
- Turn heterogeneous customer and market signals into structured, rigorous cases that can drive organizational decisions — not “I talked to five customers”, but a properly constructed argument.
- Work closely with GTM to understand market dynamics, competitive landscape, and go-to-market opportunities in your domain.
- Identify and size the most impactful product bets; present strategy, hypotheses, and learnings to leadership and stakeholders.
- Collaborate with Product Owners who handle delivery; your job is to set direction and create conviction, not to manage sprints.
- Build business cases with a clear commercial lens: TAM, revenue opportunity, risk, prioritization.
Requirements
- Senior Product Manager or Head of Product level, with experience owning large, strategic product areas.
- Exceptional at structuring ambiguous problems — you can take messy information and produce a clear, defensible framework.
- Strong business and commercial thinking: you connect product decisions to revenue and market outcomes.
- Experience working at both a large company and a small/startup company.
- Comfortable as an IC: you’re excited to contribute individually at a high level rather than manage a team.
- Experience collaborating with GTM (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships) and influencing without authority.
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in management consulting followed by a move into product — this combination is highly valued.
- Experience working with or in international teams
- Prior experience as a “Principal PM” or equivalent senior IC role.
- Comfort operating in a fast-scaling environment with limited defined processes.
Why Join Us
- Enormous scope of impact: the business is growing fast and this role has a direct line to its trajectory.
- Work directly with the CPO and leadership on defining the future of the product.
- Flat structure, no politics, genuine ownership.
- Transparent culture and long-term equity upside.
Benefits
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 22 paid vacation days per year
- Up to 14 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days

About Fundraise Up
Fundraise Up is a global fundraising platform that powers tens of millions of dollars in donations every month for leading nonprofits — including UNICEF, the Alzheimer's Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. We're known for product quality, performance, and a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
As we scale the core, we're deliberately investing in high-risk, high-upside product bets that could define the future of digital fundraising. That's where the Lab comes in.
The Lab
The Lab is Fundraise Up's 0→1 track. It operates ahead of the roadmap, investigating opportunities driven by new technologies, AI, data, and infrastructure shifts — often before there's a clear buyer or demand signal.
The Lab does not run scaled products. It finds, validates, and hands off the ones worth scaling.
The Role
This is a player-coach role. You'll build and lead the Lab function while personally owning 1–2 of the highest-leverage bets.
Your job is to reduce uncertainty, not ship features. You'll own ideas end-to-end — from hypothesis framing through fast experiments to explicit investment decisions: scale, pivot, or kill. Most ideas should die early. A few may graduate into Core or New Products with strong evidence behind them.
Success = learning velocity, decision quality, and team leverage — not output volume or adoption.
Key Responsibilities
- Portfolio & Strategy: Own the Lab bet portfolio. Size opportunities, set entry/exit criteria, and make decisive scale/iterate/kill calls. Maintain a visible exploration backlog.
- Experimentation: Frame experiments around the single riskiest assumption. Define kill criteria before building. Choose the right fidelity (prototype, spike, wizard-of-oz, no-code, live pilot). Ship fast and protect learning speed.
- Investment Decisions: Synthesize results into opinionated recommendations. Communicate what was tested, learned, and what remains unknown. Kill zombie initiatives — every experiment ends with a decision.
- Handoffs: When a bet shows strong signal, prepare validated hypotheses, evidence packs, risks, and a proposed scaling model. Transfer ownership fully.
- GTM & Partnerships: Source and close lighthouse pilots with clear scope, metrics, and off-ramps. Identify enabling partners and join strategic calls to move pilots to business validation.
- Team: Build a repeatable Lab Operating System (pipeline reviews, kill reviews, demo days, post-mortems).
- AI & Transparency: Use AI tools to accelerate research, synthesis, and prototyping. Explore AI-enabled product ideas with a realistic lens on cost, data, and accuracy. Publish decision memos and share failed experiments openly.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- 3–5 high-risk bets tested with clear outcomes (scaled, iterated, or killed with rationale)
- 1–2 bets graduated to New Products or Core with evidence packs and clean handoffs
- A transparent kill list that saves months of misdirected effort
- A functioning Lab team with clear ownership, experiment discipline, and stakeholder trust
- A repeatable Lab Operating System that compounds learning
Requirements
Experience (Must-Have)
- 8–10+ years in Product with a proven 0→1 track record
- Personally owned multiple high-risk bets with explicit go/kill decisions
- 3+ years managing PMs (player-coach or group lead)
- Fluency across validation tools: discovery, prototypes, engineered MVPs — knows when each is appropriate
- Cross-functional leadership across Eng/Design/Analytics and GTM; comfort in pre-sales/pilot settings
- Experience where learning speed mattered more than polish and real downside risk was present
AI & Technical Judgment (Critical)
- Hands-on experience using AI as a product-building and exploration tool
- Can prototype with LLMs, APIs, or modern tooling and ship a functional prototype quickly
- Able to scope AI experiments realistically and judge feasibility without full engineering validation
- Can spot capability shifts and turn them into testable hypotheses
- Evaluates build vs. buy vs. partner decisions
This background often comes from: founder/co-founder roles, early-stage startups, internal labs/innovation teams, or new market bets inside larger companies.
Bonus
- Ex-founder with a clear ship/scale/kill story and measurable outcomes
- Payments, fintech, e-commerce, or nonprofit domain experience
- EU market familiarity (PSD2/SCA, data/privacy norms) and additional languages
This Role Is Not For You If…
- Your background is mostly in roadmap-driven delivery with stable scope
- You prefer incremental optimization of mature products
- You need long planning cycles and large teams to move
- You avoid pilot conversations or hesitate to ask customers for real commitments
- Ambiguity makes you uncomfortable
Why Work With Us
- Real ownership over high-impact bets with the authority and team to pursue them
- Leadership that values clear thinking over activity
- Permission — and expectation — to kill bad ideas early
- Access to real customers, real data, and real constraints
- Flat structure, transparent culture, and equity participation
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- 31 days of paid time off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home office setup assistance
- English learning courses
- Professional education budget
- Gym or swimming pool membership
- Co-working support
- Fully remote work
We are an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, national origin, disability, or any other characteristic protected by applicable law in the countries where we operate.

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up — a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. Our platform is trusted by leading nonprofits including UNICEF and the Alzheimer’s Association, with a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms.
About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a Product Manager who will own the internationalization of our product — taking what works brilliantly in the US and successfully replicating it in the UK and Europe.
This is a high-ownership, delivery-intensive role. You will navigate regulatory, legal, payment, and localization requirements across markets, coordinate multiple product and GTM teams, and drive end-to-end launches. You are the person who gets things across the finish line.
What You’ll Do
- Identify and prioritize international markets based on volume potential and ease of entry — combining market research with business judgment.
- Define the full scope of product adaptations required: local compliance, payment methods, language/UX localization, regulatory requirements.
- Act as the central coordinator across legal, finance, product, and GTM — translating scope into delivery by aligning multiple teams around a shared timeline.
- Work closely with Product Owners who will execute delivery; your job is to orchestrate and unblock, not to disappear after scoping.
- Own the launch end-to-end — from market selection through go-live — and track outcomes post-launch.
- Communicate progress, risks, and learnings to leadership and cross-functional stakeholders.
Requirements
- Proven experience as a Product Manager with a track record of shipping in complex, multi-stakeholder environments.
- Strong delivery mindset: you get things done, meet commitments, and treat alignment gaps as your problem to solve.
- Experience working at both a large company (process, structure, scale) and a small/startup company (speed, ambiguity, hands-on work).
- Prior experience with product localization, internationalization, or multi-market expansion.
- Comfortable working without a dedicated development team — you lead through influence across shared resources.
- Experience collaborating with GTM teams (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships, CS).
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in payments, processing, or banking (deep familiarity with regulatory environments).
- Experience launching products in the UK or EU markets specifically.
- Comfort operating without defined processes — you build the system while delivering the result.
Why Join Us
- Large, direct impact on the company’s international growth trajectory.
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people.
- Transparent culture — we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next.
- Equity options and long-term focus.
Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up — a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Our platform powers tens of millions of dollars in monthly donations for nonprofits including UNICEF and the Alzheimer’s Association, with a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
About the Role
The Core Markets team is responsible for scaling Fundraise Up from $50M toward $200M+ ARR. We are looking for a senior Product Manager to own a strategic direction within Core Markets — one that requires thinking in years, not quarters.
This is an individual contributor (IC) role with no dedicated dev team of your own. You will work closely with GTM, and other Product Managers to identify the biggest opportunities, build conviction from evidence, and shape the long-term product strategy for your domain. The person who comes in will define what this area looks like — that’s both the challenge and the opportunity.
You are not here to execute a roadmap that already exists. You are here to figure out what the roadmap should be, make the case, and drive it forward.
What You’ll Do
- Define the long-term product strategy for your domain within Core Markets — from initial research and market analysis through to a coherent, evidence-backed direction.
- Turn heterogeneous customer and market signals into structured, rigorous cases that can drive organizational decisions — not “I talked to five customers”, but a properly constructed argument.
- Work closely with GTM to understand market dynamics, competitive landscape, and go-to-market opportunities in your domain.
- Identify and size the most impactful product bets; present strategy, hypotheses, and learnings to leadership and stakeholders.
- Collaborate with Product Owners who handle delivery; your job is to set direction and create conviction, not to manage sprints.
- Build business cases with a clear commercial lens: TAM, revenue opportunity, risk, prioritization.
Requirements
- Senior Product Manager or Head of Product level, with experience owning large, strategic product areas.
- Exceptional at structuring ambiguous problems — you can take messy information and produce a clear, defensible framework.
- Strong business and commercial thinking: you connect product decisions to revenue and market outcomes.
- Experience working at both a large company and a small/startup company.
- Comfortable as an IC: you’re excited to contribute individually at a high level rather than manage a team.
- Experience collaborating with GTM (Sales, Marketing, Partnerships) and influencing without authority.
- Fluent English (C1+) and Russian.
Bonus Points
- Background in management consulting followed by a move into product — this combination is highly valued.
- Experience working with or in international teams
- Prior experience as a “Principal PM” or equivalent senior IC role.
- Comfort operating in a fast-scaling environment with limited defined processes.
Why Join Us
- Enormous scope of impact: the business is growing fast and this role has a direct line to its trajectory.
- Work directly with the CPO and leadership on defining the future of the product.
- Flat structure, no politics, genuine ownership.
- Transparent culture and long-term equity upside.
Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
Our backend is powered by Node.js (Koa, NestJS) and MongoDB. The frontend stack includes Webpack, Vue.js, and React, with nearly all code written in TypeScript. For high-throughput messaging and background processing, we use Kafka (for millions of events) and Bull (Redis). Analytics data is stored in ClickHouse, and we use Elasticsearch for search.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset. Biweekly engineering forums give space to share learnings and celebrate technical achievements. You’ll be joining a team where quality, mentorship, and mutual respect come first.
About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset.
About the role
Fundraise Up is building high-trust donation and fundraising experiences that help nonprofits grow their impact. We’re looking for a UX Researcher to join our Product Research Team and raise the quality, speed, and decision-making power of research across the product.
This role combines classic UX research and Product Discovery: new markets, segments, and product opportunities. You will work across both B2C and B2B contexts: donor-facing experiences (B2C) and nonprofit/org-facing workflows (B2B).
What You'll Do
- Take a research initiative from the quarterly plan and run it end-to-end: intake brief → write methodology → conduct research → analyse → synthesize → present → push actions.
- Choose the right method: interviews, usability tests, concept tests, surveys, desk research, competitive scans or others — based on uncertainty level, business goals, and timeline.
- Set up the mechanics: access to tools/data, participant scheduling and confirmations, session logistics, note-taking, recording, and documentation — no hand-holding.
- Be the cross-team “glue”: proactively collect hypotheses and context from Sales, Customer Success, Support, Marketing, Analytics, and turn them into testable research questions.
- Stay close to product analytics: monitor dashboards and reports, work with analysts to spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and prioritize what to validate with research.
- Produce outputs people can use immediately: key findings, decisions, trade-offs, risks, and clear recommendations, with supporting evidence (quotes, clips, metrics).
- Keep an internal pulse: regularly review existing research, past studies, competitor insights, and synthesize what’s already known before running something new.
- Be the user best friend: ensure user needs and constraints are represented in product decisions – not just opinions.
Requirements
- Proven experience running research end-to-end with high ownership.
- Strong methodological toolkit and judgment: you can pick the right method for the question, given business goals, timelines, and uncertainty, and explain trade-offs clearly.
- Experience working across both B2C and B2B products and audiences.
- Fluent English — all participants are English-speaking; you moderate and present in English.
- Can work with analytics: read dashboards, spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and validate them via research; PostHog/Tableau is a plus.
- Regularly collect input from Sales, CS, Support, Marketing, Analytics and turn it into testable research questions.
- High research quality bar: structured methodology, and ethical practice.
- Use recruiting platforms and handle logistics yourself: access, scheduling, confirmations, tool setup, etc.
- Use AI tools to speed up ops and synthesis (guides, notes, tagging/themes, survey drafts, summaries) while keeping human judgment and methodological rigor where it matters.
- You don’t need to be a marketer, but you should understand core terms and how they affect research and insights.
- Be the team’s source of new knowledge: run a “research radar” across internal learnings, market/competitor moves, and high-signal UX/product sources, then share regular updates so the team stays current and avoids blind spots.
- Bring exceptional empathy and care for people: our users are nonprofits and donors—people doing good in the world—so you approach participants with respect, sensitivity, and high ethical standards.
Strong plus
- NN/g certifications.
- Academic/scientific research background (graduate/PhD track).
- PostHog / Tableau (or similar analytics tools).
- Productboard (or other insights repository tools).
- Mentoring/teaching (workshops, onboarding, sharing research craft).
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution

About the Role
This role is the primary owner of how the product team operates. You ensure quality and velocity don't trade off against each other — by building, scaling, and protecting the processes that make good product decisions repeatable.
You'll report directly to the CPO and serve as the main entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritizing, routing, and leading the ones that matter most. You focus on what scales across the whole product team, not what solves a one-off problem for one squad.
The Product Ops team is two people: you and one manager — with plans to grow. This is a genuinely hands-on role — you'll be doing real work, not just directing it. Expect to own processes end-to-end, from design through adoption.
What You'll Own
- Be the primary entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritize them, decide what gets resourced, and route what doesn't fit.
- Lead major cross-team process changes: design the frame, align stakeholders, and drive adoption.
- Own cross-team processes across the Product department (Product, Design, and Analytics) where central coordination is required — quarterly planning, goal decomposition, metrics alignment.
- Build and maintain shared frameworks and artifacts (prioritization logic, metrics models, decision templates) that improve clarity and consistency across the product team.
- Identify and escalate systemic process problems that require cross-team or leadership-level decisions.
- Drive AI automation of product workflows — identify high-leverage opportunities, build or oversee solutions, measure against baselines, and decide what scales across the team.
- Manage Product Ops focus and load: ensure the team works on things that move the needle, not reactive noise.
What Success Looks Like
- Product Ops initiatives have a transparent, understood focus — no one wonders what the function is for.
- Shared processes are adopted and used consistently across product teams (measured by adoption rate and CSAT).
- Operational noise decreases — fewer ad-hoc requests, less manual coordination, fewer alignment gaps.
- Product decisions become more predictable and higher quality — even as the company keeps scaling fast.
What We're Looking For
- Process design experience. You've built or significantly improved operational processes in a product or tech environment. You think in systems, not tasks.
- Cross-functional influence. You know how to align people who don't report to you. You bring clarity to ambiguous situations and can drive decisions across teams.
- Metrics-driven. You track adoption and satisfaction as seriously as any product team tracks conversion. You know how to set a baseline and measure change.
- Bias toward scalability. You distinguish between fixing a one-off problem and building something the whole team can use. When both paths are possible, you ask: will this still work when the team doubles?
- Full ownership of your domain. You take accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. Blockers are your problem to solve — not someone else's.
- AI automation fluency. You've used AI tools to automate workflows or processes — and you can identify where automation creates real leverage vs. where it's noise.
- Fluent English (C1+). We're a mixed company — the product team works in Russian, but you'll have English-language meetings daily and work with English documentation constantly.
Bonus Points
- Product fluency — you understand how product teams work: discovery, prioritization, planning cycles, roadmap trade-offs
- Background in product operations or program management
- Familiarity with OKR frameworks, quarterly planning processes, or company-wide goal alignment
- Comfortable working in a fast-scaling environment without a defined playbook for everything
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- 31 days of paid time off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan
- Home office setup assistance
- English learning courses
- Professional education budget
- Gym or swimming pool membership
- Co-working support
- Fully remote work

Director of Product, Lab

- Languages: Fluent in English and Russian
- Reports to VP, Product
About Fundraise Up
Fundraise Up is a global fundraising platform that powers tens of millions of dollars in donations every month for leading nonprofits — including UNICEF, the Alzheimer's Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. We're known for product quality, performance, and a 4.9/5 rating across top review platforms.
As we scale the core, we're deliberately investing in high-risk, high-upside product bets that could define the future of digital fundraising. That's where the Lab comes in.
The Lab
The Lab is Fundraise Up's 0→1 track. It operates ahead of the roadmap, investigating opportunities driven by new technologies, AI, data, and infrastructure shifts — often before there's a clear buyer or demand signal.
The Lab does not run scaled products. It finds, validates, and hands off the ones worth scaling.
The Role
This is a player-coach role. You'll build and lead the Lab function while personally owning 1–2 of the highest-leverage bets.
Your job is to reduce uncertainty, not ship features. You'll own ideas end-to-end — from hypothesis framing through fast experiments to explicit investment decisions: scale, pivot, or kill. Most ideas should die early. A few may graduate into Core or New Products with strong evidence behind them.
Success = learning velocity, decision quality, and team leverage — not output volume or adoption.
Key Responsibilities
- Portfolio & Strategy: Own the Lab bet portfolio. Size opportunities, set entry/exit criteria, and make decisive scale/iterate/kill calls. Maintain a visible exploration backlog.
- Experimentation: Frame experiments around the single riskiest assumption. Define kill criteria before building. Choose the right fidelity (prototype, spike, wizard-of-oz, no-code, live pilot). Ship fast and protect learning speed.
- Investment Decisions: Synthesize results into opinionated recommendations. Communicate what was tested, learned, and what remains unknown. Kill zombie initiatives — every experiment ends with a decision.
- Handoffs: When a bet shows strong signal, prepare validated hypotheses, evidence packs, risks, and a proposed scaling model. Transfer ownership fully.
- GTM & Partnerships: Source and close lighthouse pilots with clear scope, metrics, and off-ramps. Identify enabling partners and join strategic calls to move pilots to business validation.
- Team: Build a repeatable Lab Operating System (pipeline reviews, kill reviews, demo days, post-mortems).
- AI & Transparency: Use AI tools to accelerate research, synthesis, and prototyping. Explore AI-enabled product ideas with a realistic lens on cost, data, and accuracy. Publish decision memos and share failed experiments openly.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- 3–5 high-risk bets tested with clear outcomes (scaled, iterated, or killed with rationale)
- 1–2 bets graduated to New Products or Core with evidence packs and clean handoffs
- A transparent kill list that saves months of misdirected effort
- A functioning Lab team with clear ownership, experiment discipline, and stakeholder trust
- A repeatable Lab Operating System that compounds learning
Requirements
Experience (Must-Have)
- 8–10+ years in Product with a proven 0→1 track record
- Personally owned multiple high-risk bets with explicit go/kill decisions
- 3+ years managing PMs (player-coach or group lead)
- Fluency across validation tools: discovery, prototypes, engineered MVPs — knows when each is appropriate
- Cross-functional leadership across Eng/Design/Analytics and GTM; comfort in pre-sales/pilot settings
- Experience where learning speed mattered more than polish and real downside risk was present
AI & Technical Judgment (Critical)
- Hands-on experience using AI as a product-building and exploration tool
- Can prototype with LLMs, APIs, or modern tooling and ship a functional prototype quickly
- Able to scope AI experiments realistically and judge feasibility without full engineering validation
- Can spot capability shifts and turn them into testable hypotheses
- Evaluates build vs. buy vs. partner decisions
This background often comes from: founder/co-founder roles, early-stage startups, internal labs/innovation teams, or new market bets inside larger companies.
Bonus
- Ex-founder with a clear ship/scale/kill story and measurable outcomes
- Payments, fintech, e-commerce, or nonprofit domain experience
- EU market familiarity (PSD2/SCA, data/privacy norms) and additional languages
This Role Is Not For You If…
- Your background is mostly in roadmap-driven delivery with stable scope
- You prefer incremental optimization of mature products
- You need long planning cycles and large teams to move
- You avoid pilot conversations or hesitate to ask customers for real commitments
- Ambiguity makes you uncomfortable
Why Work With Us
- Real ownership over high-impact bets with the authority and team to pursue them
- Leadership that values clear thinking over activity
- Permission — and expectation — to kill bad ideas early
- Access to real customers, real data, and real constraints
- Flat structure, transparent culture, and equity participation
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 22 paid vacation days per year
- Up to 14 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.
- €50 monthly allowance to cover internet and mobile phone expenses

We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
Our backend is powered by Node.js (Koa, NestJS) and MongoDB. The frontend stack includes Webpack, Vue.js, and React, with nearly all code written in TypeScript. For high-throughput messaging and background processing, we use Kafka (for millions of events) and Bull (Redis). Analytics data is stored in ClickHouse, and we use Elasticsearch for search.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset. Biweekly engineering forums give space to share learnings and celebrate technical achievements. You’ll be joining a team where quality, mentorship, and mutual respect come first.
About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next

Benefits
- 31 days off
- 100% paid telemedicine plan

About Fundraise Up
We’re Fundraise Up - a global fundraising platform built to make donating to nonprofits fast, seamless, and accessible to all. Every month, our technology powers tens of millions of dollars in donations across the globe. We focus on innovation that directly impacts results: faster load times, higher conversion rates, global payment support, and accessibility-first design.
Our platform is trusted by many of the world’s leading nonprofits, including UNICEF, the Alzheimer’s Association, and a wide range of global NGOs. With a 4.9/5 rating across top software review platforms, we’re recognized not just for our impact - but for the quality of the product we deliver.
About the Role
This role is the primary owner of how the product team operates. You ensure quality and velocity don't trade off against each other — by building, scaling, and protecting the processes that make good product decisions repeatable.
You'll report directly to the CPO and serve as the main entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritizing, routing, and leading the ones that matter most. You focus on what scales across the whole product team, not what solves a one-off problem for one squad.
The Product Ops team is two people: you and one manager — with plans to grow. This is a genuinely hands-on role — you'll be doing real work, not just directing it. Expect to own processes end-to-end, from design through adoption.
What You'll Own
- Be the primary entry point for new Product Ops initiatives — prioritize them, decide what gets resourced, and route what doesn't fit.
- Lead major cross-team process changes: design the frame, align stakeholders, and drive adoption.
- Own cross-team processes across the Product department (Product, Design, and Analytics) where central coordination is required — quarterly planning, goal decomposition, metrics alignment.
- Build and maintain shared frameworks and artifacts (prioritization logic, metrics models, decision templates) that improve clarity and consistency across the product team.
- Identify and escalate systemic process problems that require cross-team or leadership-level decisions.
- Drive AI automation of product workflows — identify high-leverage opportunities, build or oversee solutions, measure against baselines, and decide what scales across the team.
- Manage Product Ops focus and load: ensure the team works on things that move the needle, not reactive noise.
What Success Looks Like
- Product Ops initiatives have a transparent, understood focus — no one wonders what the function is for.
- Shared processes are adopted and used consistently across product teams (measured by adoption rate and CSAT).
- Operational noise decreases — fewer ad-hoc requests, less manual coordination, fewer alignment gaps.
- Product decisions become more predictable and higher quality — even as the company keeps scaling fast.
What We're Looking For
- Process design experience. You've built or significantly improved operational processes in a product or tech environment. You think in systems, not tasks.
- Cross-functional influence. You know how to align people who don't report to you. You bring clarity to ambiguous situations and can drive decisions across teams.
- Metrics-driven. You track adoption and satisfaction as seriously as any product team tracks conversion. You know how to set a baseline and measure change.
- Bias toward scalability. You distinguish between fixing a one-off problem and building something the whole team can use. When both paths are possible, you ask: will this still work when the team doubles?
- Full ownership of your domain. You take accountability for outcomes, not just tasks. Blockers are your problem to solve — not someone else's.
- AI automation fluency. You've used AI tools to automate workflows or processes — and you can identify where automation creates real leverage vs. where it's noise.
- Fluent English (C1+). We're a mixed company — the product team works in Russian, but you'll have English-language meetings daily and work with English documentation constantly.
Bonus Points
- Product fluency — you understand how product teams work: discovery, prioritization, planning cycles, roadmap trade-offs
- Background in product operations or program management
- Familiarity with OKR frameworks, quarterly planning processes, or company-wide goal alignment
- Comfortable working in a fast-scaling environment without a defined playbook for everything
Benefits
Our compensation package includes comprehensive benefits and perks, meaningful equity, and a competitive salary:
- Private medical insurance for the employee and their family
- 20 paid vacation days per year
- 15 paid public holidays per year
- 5 company-paid sick leave days
- English learning courses.
- Relevant professional education.
- Gym or swimming pool.
- Home Office Setup Assistance: the company offers assistance with purchasing furniture (office chair, office desk, monitor) and other items to create a comfortable workspace.
- Co-working.
- Remote working.

A Truly Global Product
We operate in the enterprise segment, serving nonprofit organizations across North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Europe.
We’re building a large and complex product ecosystem that serves nonprofits, donors, and partners around the world. The platform includes a modern checkout experience and customizable widgets (each a standalone SPA), donor, organization, and partner portals, admin tools, and several internal apps.
The Team
We are a distributed team of 160+ product professionals. Our team members are mainly based across Spain, Poland, Portugal, Georgia, Armenia, Serbia, Turkey, and Cyprus.
Despite our scale, we operate like a focused team - where every task matters and every voice is heard. We value thoughtful collaboration, strong engineering practices, and a product mindset.
About the role
Fundraise Up is building high-trust donation and fundraising experiences that help nonprofits grow their impact. We’re looking for a UX Researcher to join our Product Research Team and raise the quality, speed, and decision-making power of research across the product.
This role combines classic UX research and Product Discovery: new markets, segments, and product opportunities. You will work across both B2C and B2B contexts: donor-facing experiences (B2C) and nonprofit/org-facing workflows (B2B).
What You'll Do
- Take a research initiative from the quarterly plan and run it end-to-end: intake brief → write methodology → conduct research → analyse → synthesize → present → push actions.
- Choose the right method: interviews, usability tests, concept tests, surveys, desk research, competitive scans or others — based on uncertainty level, business goals, and timeline.
- Set up the mechanics: access to tools/data, participant scheduling and confirmations, session logistics, note-taking, recording, and documentation — no hand-holding.
- Be the cross-team “glue”: proactively collect hypotheses and context from Sales, Customer Success, Support, Marketing, Analytics, and turn them into testable research questions.
- Stay close to product analytics: monitor dashboards and reports, work with analysts to spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and prioritize what to validate with research.
- Produce outputs people can use immediately: key findings, decisions, trade-offs, risks, and clear recommendations, with supporting evidence (quotes, clips, metrics).
- Keep an internal pulse: regularly review existing research, past studies, competitor insights, and synthesize what’s already known before running something new.
- Be the user best friend: ensure user needs and constraints are represented in product decisions – not just opinions.
Requirements
- Proven experience running research end-to-end with high ownership.
- Strong methodological toolkit and judgment: you can pick the right method for the question, given business goals, timelines, and uncertainty, and explain trade-offs clearly.
- Experience working across both B2C and B2B products and audiences.
- Fluent English — all participants are English-speaking; you moderate and present in English.
- Can work with analytics: read dashboards, spot anomalies/drop-offs, form hypotheses, and validate them via research; PostHog/Tableau is a plus.
- Regularly collect input from Sales, CS, Support, Marketing, Analytics and turn it into testable research questions.
- High research quality bar: structured methodology, and ethical practice.
- Use recruiting platforms and handle logistics yourself: access, scheduling, confirmations, tool setup, etc.
- Use AI tools to speed up ops and synthesis (guides, notes, tagging/themes, survey drafts, summaries) while keeping human judgment and methodological rigor where it matters.
- You don’t need to be a marketer, but you should understand core terms and how they affect research and insights.
- Be the team’s source of new knowledge: run a “research radar” across internal learnings, market/competitor moves, and high-signal UX/product sources, then share regular updates so the team stays current and avoids blind spots.
- Bring exceptional empathy and care for people: our users are nonprofits and donors—people doing good in the world—so you approach participants with respect, sensitivity, and high ethical standards.
Strong plus
- NN/g certifications.
- Academic/scientific research background (graduate/PhD track).
- PostHog / Tableau (or similar analytics tools).
- Productboard (or other insights repository tools).
- Mentoring/teaching (workshops, onboarding, sharing research craft).
Why work with us
- A strong, collaborative product team that owns what it builds
- Clear product vision and access to real customer feedback from global nonprofit leaders
- Flat structure: no politics, just great work with great people
- Transparent company culture-we share how we’re growing, where revenue comes from, and what’s next
- Long-term focus: we offer equity options and value sustained, meaningful contribution
Benefits

A Truly Global Product

Our backend is powered by Node.js (Koa, NestJS) and MongoDB. The frontend stack includes Webpack, Vue.js, and React, with nearly all code written in TypeScript.

About the role
As Director of Product, Core Markets, you will own the strategy and execution that positions Fundraise Up as the category leader in key nonprofit verticals. You’ll lead and grow a team of Product Managers, collaborate tightly with Sales, GTM, and Customer Success, and engage directly with senior nonprofit executives on complex, enterprise-scale deals. This is a hands-on, results-driven role — you will set bold vision, raise the bar on execution, and drive measurable revenue growth and market dominance.
What “Core Markets” means here
Core Markets represent the priority verticals where Fundraise Up has established strong traction and significant growth potential — including large Tier 1 & Tier 2 nonprofits across Cause & Cure, Faith-based, and adjacent segments. Your mandate: position Fundraise Up as the partner of choice and default platform within these key markets.
Key Responsibilities
Market & Customer Leadership
- Develop deep expertise in Core Markets — understand segments, buying behaviors, procurement and RFP patterns, compliance requirements, and the key barriers to adoption.
- Drive continuous discovery — conduct executive interviews, site visits, and industry events, translating insights into clear “must-haves” versus differentiators for each vertical.
- Own strategic enterprise deals — present the product vision, address objections, and collaborate with the Go-to-Market team to co-create scalable, enterprise-grade rollout plans.
Portfolio Strategy & Outcomes
- Define and own the Core Markets strategy and multi-quarter roadmap across verticals; articulate crisp bets with quantified business cases.
- Balance scale vs. customization: protect product integrity while unlocking enterprise wins (no “zoo” of one-offs).
- Set and deliver against OKRs that tie directly to revenue and adoption (ARR growth, win-rate, NRR, adoption of key capabilities).
Team Leadership
- Hire, mentor, and inspire 2–5 PMs (vertical leads). Build a culture of ownership, curiosity, and high accountability.
- Establish operating rituals (discovery cadence, metrics reviews, launch playbooks) that scale learning and delivery.
- Grow leaders: coach PMs to manage their own cross-functional pods and represent the product credibly with enterprise customers.
GTM & Cross-Functional Partnership
- Operate as a true partner to Sales, Solutions, CS, and Marketing: equip teams with product narratives, competitive angles, and clear boundaries.
- Lead cross-functional execution with Engineering, Design, and Analytics to ship impactful, reliable capabilities on time.
- Communicate trade-offs with executive clarity; make decisions, document rationale, and keep stakeholders aligned.
Skills and Qualifications
- 10+ years in Product Management, with 3+ years leading PMs (managing managers or multiple PMs across areas).
- Enterprise B2B experience (SaaS/fintech/payments/e-commerce or adjacent), including pre-sales/RFPs and complex stakeholder management.
- Proven discovery & execution track record: from insight → business case → delivery → measurable impact.
- Metrics fluency: ARR, NRR, win-rate, conversion, adoption, time-to-value; strong analytical and decision-making skills.
- Communication: C1/C2 English—clear, confident, and persuasive with executives and cross-functional teams.
- Travel-ready: comfortable with regular customer visits and conferences (including the U.S.).
Bonus points
- Experience in nonprofit, giving, or payments (compliance, risk, donor experience).
- History of building vertical toolkits/solutions that scale across enterprise accounts.
What Great Looks Like in 12 Months
- Significantly improved win rate in our core markets.
- 80%+ of release expectations achieved.
- Clear narrative and playbooks for the field: why we win, where we don’t, what to say “no” to—and why.
- Team operating system in place: quarterly strategy reviews, robust discovery pipeline, and predictable delivery.
Director-Level Behaviors We Expect
- Accountable & reliable: owns outcomes, not just plans.
- Empathetic & relentlessly curious: keeps digging until root causes and workable solutions are found.
- Executive presence: confidently challenges and influences senior nonprofit leaders; commands the room with clarity and respect.
- Sales-friendly, product-centric: partners with GTM while protecting long-term product leverage.
- Resourceful & persistent: never stuck—always finds the next path forward with urgency.
