About marta

At marta, we build technology that makes high-quality home care accessible, transparent, and human. Our platform connects families and caregivers across Europe, creating trust, dignity, and simplicity in one of the most essential industries: elderly care.

After establishing ourselves as the technological leader in the live-in care market, we are now entering the next growth phase — scaling our product and engineering organization to deliver greater speed, stability, and impact. Our goal is clear: to set the new standard for technology in elderly care.

To make this happen, we’re looking for a Product Lead who combines strategic product leadership with hands-on execution — someone who can translate business vision into outstanding user experiences, drive engineering focus, and help lead Marta into its next chapter of growth and market leadership.

• Translate complex business problems into actionable, testable engineering requirements.
• Lead product discovery, prioritization, and delivery rhythms (stand-ups, sprint planning, retros, roadmap reviews).
• Define and evolve a cohesive product strategy, balancing business impact, user needs, and technical feasibility.
• Partner closely with engineering and design to ship elegant, data-driven solutions.
• Introduce modern product practices — from rapid prototyping to structured feedback loops and lean experimentation.
• Build a high-velocity product culture, leveraging AI tools for ideation, user research, and code acceleration.
• Represent the product & engineering function internally, ensuring strong alignment with founders and stakeholders.

• Own the product roadmap and ensure every initiative ties to measurable business outcomes.
• Maintain a clear, centralized source of truth for requirements, decisions, and product specs.
• Define success metrics and drive continuous improvement through data and feedback.

• Ensure clarity, prioritization, and readiness before work enters development — every ticket meets the Definition of Ready and connects to a measurable business goal.
• Collaborate closely with engineering leads, who own sprint execution and delivery cadence, to align priorities and manage scope without micromanaging the process.
• Maintain delivery momentum by resolving cross-functional blockers early and keeping context clear between product, design, and engineering.

• Contribute actively to shaping marta’s business strategy and translate it into a clear product roadmap and execution plan.
• Act as the main spokesperson for the product & engineering organization toward founders and other departments.
• Champion user and caregiver needs — ensuring the product remains intuitive, compliant, and differentiated.

• Explore and apply AI-assisted product management and development workflows — from user-research synthesis to low-code prototyping and automated testing.
• Collaborate with engineers on feasibility explorations, architectural decisions, and technical trade-offs.
• Identify and drive opportunities to embed AI and agentic layers directly into our product, enabling automation, smart decision support, and operational efficiency across the platform.

• 5+ years of experience in Product Management, Product Engineering, or a hybrid technical product role.
• Experience shaping business strategy and translating it into clear product direction.
• A product leader equally comfortable with strategic vision, tactical execution, and organizational discipline.
• Strong understanding of modern software development (API-driven architectures, CI/CD, agile delivery).
• Hands-on experience working directly with engineering and design teams.
• Analytical mindset with a bias for data-informed decision-making.
• Passion for building tools and systems that improve people’s lives in tangible ways.
• Excellent communication skills in German and English.

• A mission with societal impact — redefining home care across Europe.

• A small, high-talent team that values ownership, clarity, and execution.

• The freedom to shape how product & engineering collaborate — from process design to tooling.

• A founder-driven company where your voice defines the future of the product function.
