Be an ambassador for the power of Data and AI and contribute to making it a driver of success for the company and your co-workers.
  • Stakeholder Management and Collaboration: foster strong ties with partner teams (across product, marketing, operations, etc.), communicate progress and results, anticipate roadblocks and align objectives across stakeholders. Leadership and culture: Mentor co-workers, create a culture of feedback and trust building, and take an active role in your own growth and of the growth of people around you.

Requirements

  • 3+ years experience as a Product Manager solving business problems using AI/ML products
  • Demonstrated proficiency in AI technologies, Machine Learning concepts, and a strong technical understanding to effectively communicate and collaborate with development teams
  • Successful track-record managing Products across remote teams

  • Have a lasting impact on our company's culture
  • Make a real impact on the world by helping us bring affordable financial and on-demand services to millions of Africans

  • We are the first Algerian startup to go through Y Combinator program and we’re backed by top investors including Unpopular Ventures, Rebel Fund and DainTree.VC

At Yassir, we believe in the power of diversity and the importance of an inclusive culture. So, if you're ready to bring your unique perspective and experiences to the table, then we're excited to listen.
