Founding Product Manager

About The Job

Provn is hiring a Founding Product Manager for a Seattle company building the next generation fan experience platform for professional sports teams. This is the founding PM seat at a company with a live platform and expansion underway.

Hybrid in Seattle

Comp: $150,000-$200,000 base (DOE) + bonus + founding equity. Hybrid in Seattle. Full benefits package including company-funded medical/dental/vision, 401k with company match, flexible PTO, and well-being programs.

Here's the context:

Most professional sports teams run a fragmented technology stack: a website vendor, a ticketing provider, a separate mobile app, a CRM, marketing automation, merchandise platforms, and game-day engagement tools that don't talk to each other. The result is a disconnected fan journey and revenue that never gets captured. This team is building the unified, AI-first platform that fixes that: team website, mobile app, ticketing, fan identity, CRM, marketing automation, merchandise, and in-stadium engagement all from one system. The platform is already live with the Seattle Seawolves of Major League Rugby, with expansion planned across the league and into additional professional sports organizations.

What you'll be doing:

• Owning platform areas end to end, from customer discovery through launch and adoption
• Working directly with team executives, marketing leaders, and operators to understand workflows and pain points
• Spending time with customers on-site during games and events
• Leading 0-to-1 product development and new feature launches
• Helping set technical direction and architectural principles, not just writing specs
• Designing AI-powered fan experiences: personalization, engagement, recommendations, and automation
• Contributing to sales discussions, customer demos, pricing, and packaging

What we're looking for:

• 5-10 years of product management or equivalent product-building experience
• Experience shipping 0-to-1 or early-stage products
• Comfort operating directly with customers and without detailed instructions
• Curiosity about AI and eagerness to build it into the product, not just discuss it
• Ability to work across engineering, design, and business in a fast-moving environment
• Startup or early-stage company experience is a strong signal
• Background in marketplaces, consumer platforms, SaaS, or digital media is a plus
• Passion for sports is helpful, not required

Must be authorized to work in the US. No visa sponsorship.
