  • **Mindset:**
  • A "puzzle-solver" attitude.
  • You don’t bring problems to the table; you bring options.
  • You are comfortable with ambiguity and rapid shifts in priority.
  • **AI Fluency:**
  • You view AI as core infrastructure.
  • You are likely already using it to streamline your own workflows and can train a team to do the same.
  • **Communication:**
  • Exceptional professional English is non-negotiable, as you represent the Founder and brand.
  • Arabic language skills
  • are a significant advantage for GCC expansion.
  • **Technical Literacy:**
  • Proficiency with modern PM tools (Asana, Monday, Linear, or Notion) and a solid grasp of ROI and budget tracking.

What You'Ll Get In Return

  • This role offers a unique trajectory for someone looking to move toward a COO path in a scaling startup.
  • **Competitive Salary:**
  • above market salary + performance-based bonuses tied to milestones.
  • **Direct Impact:**
