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 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. This role reports directly to the VP of Product.
Key responsibilities:
- Architect and steward product strategy across critical staffing and marketplace workflows
- Solve complex marketplace problems by balancing customer needs, operational realities, and business outcomes
- Write detailed product requirements and partner closely with engineering teams to execute solutions
- Build systems that improve marketplace liquidity, fulfillment, matching quality, and operational efficiency
- Use data to uncover patterns and answer critical marketplace and customer questions
- Translate operational complexity into scalable product systems
- Scale operations by designing smart internal tooling and technical solutions
- Launch and iterate products across customers, regions, and operational environments
- Communicate complex ideas from systems and workflows to operational models and product strategy
- Socialize work across all levels and departments while synthesizing diverse stakeholder feedback
You'll collaborate with software engineers, product designers, data analysts, other product managers, operations teams, and field teams to design, build, and ship practical solutions into industrial facilities.
The company values customer obsession (spending time on-site with users on both sides of the marketplace), AI-native operations (prototyping, building internal agents, checking code to production), marketplace expertise (understanding liquidity, matching, incentives, fulfillment, trust), enterprise B2B experience (navigating complex customers with multiple stakeholders and long sales cycles), first-principles thinking, operations systems building, builder mentality, and deep cross-functional collaboration.
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
