Traba is building an AI operating layer for the light industrial supply chain, starting with contingent labor staffing for manufacturing and logistics. The company has embedded itself in customer operations through technology and is now expanding into broader operational workflows. Backed by Founders Fund, Khosla Ventures, and General Catalyst.
You will own the staffing product at the center of Traba's two-sided marketplace, balancing enterprise customers (distribution centers, manufacturing facilities) with the workers they depend on. Reporting to the VP of Product, you'll collaborate with software engineers, product designers, data analysts, and operations teams to design and ship practical solutions into industrial facilities.
Key responsibilities include: architecting product strategy across staffing and marketplace workflows; solving complex marketplace problems by balancing customer needs, operational realities, and business outcomes; writing detailed product requirements and partnering with engineering; building systems that improve marketplace liquidity, fulfillment, matching quality, and operational efficiency; using data to uncover patterns and answer critical questions; translating operational complexity into scalable product systems; designing internal tooling and technical solutions; launching and iterating products across customers and regions; and communicating complex ideas across all levels and departments.
The ideal candidate is customer-obsessed, spending time on-site with both customers and workers. You are AI-native in how you operate—prototyping before specs, checking code into production, building internal agents for research. You have deep marketplace experience understanding supply/demand dynamics, liquidity, matching systems, incentives, and fulfillment. You've built enterprise B2B products for complex customers with multiple stakeholders and long sales cycles. You think in first principles, understand systems and constraints deeply, and have built operational products or internal tools that powered real businesses. You are a builder with a scrappy mentality, moving quickly and embracing ambiguity. You work seamlessly across product, design, engineering, data, operations, sales, and leadership.
REQUIREMENTS:
- 3–5 years of experience as a Product Manager
- Evidence of shipping products that materially moved business outcomes
- Strong experience in two-sided marketplaces with real supply and demand dynamics
- Experience building enterprise products with multi-stakeholder customers and complex operational environments
- Experience building internal operational tooling or systems that supported real business execution
- Strong technical fluency and ability to work deeply with engineering teams
- Experience operating in startup environments where speed and ownership matter
- Desire to work at a startup and cover an exceptionally wide surface area
- Strong work ethic and desire to build a category-defining company
