Hyper-Growth: 300% YoY growth, jumping from zero to £1.4M in our first full year.
Proven Pedigree: Founded by the pioneers behind Deep Learning Italia, the gold standard for AI education in Italy.
Global Ambition: Backed by £4.5M in seed funding, we are preparing for a major US-led Series A in Q4 2026 to dominate international markets.
We are building the "Operating System" for AI ventures. We don't just build products; we build companies.
About AIVB
Founded in 2024 by Marco Tognoni and Matteo Testi, AIVB is an AI Venture Builder designed to scale innovation at speed. Our team of 40 is anchored by an elite engineering core, primarily AI PhDs, who transform complex research into vertical-specific powerhouses.
We operate through a Centralized Powerhouse that develops strategic blueprints for specialized spinoffs in high-impact sectors such as Fashion, Real Estate, and CyberDefense. We are "International by Design", English is our language, and global scale is our target.
The Role: Head of Product
We are looking for a strategic powerhouse to serve as the architect of our product ecosystem. This is a high-leverage managerial role with immense ownership. You aren't just managing a backlog; you are building the "Factory" that produces world-class AI startups.
Your mission is to create the "AIVB Blueprint", a recognizable, premium product DNA. Whether a spinoff focuses on Real Estate logistics or CyberDefense, it must carry the AIVB hallmark of consistent, intuitive, and innovative user experience.
Key Responsibilities
The Product Engine: Design the unified product framework, methodology, and design system (the "AIVB Way") that all spinoffs will inherit.
Venture Discovery: Collaborate with the Founders and CRO to validate market gaps and bridge the gap between "PhD-level AI" and "Market-ready UX."
Team Scaling: You have the mandate to build entire teams from scratch. You will recruit, structure, and mentor UX and Product squads for each internal spinoff.
Executive Leadership: Report to the COO and act as a strategic peer to the CTO and CRO to align engineering excellence with product-market fit.
Pre-Funded Spinoffs: Unlike traditional startups, our spinoffs are pre-funded. You will lead 4 projects currently in the pipeline with secured capital, ready for deployment.
Permanent Advisory: Stay involved as a key advisor to spinoffs post-launch, ensuring the "AIVB standard" is maintained as they scale independently.
Who You Are
Scaleup Veteran: 4+ years as Head of Product or Product Director, ideally having seen a company grow from 20 to 100+ people.
The "Venture Builder" Mindset: You thrive on variety. You can pivot from Fashion tech in the morning to CyberSecurity in the afternoon.
International Profile: Experience in UK, US, or European startup ecosystems is highly preferred. You understand the "North Star" metrics that US investors look for.
Hands-on Architect: You can define a high-level vision and also wireframe a flow or draft a PRD when the situation demands it.
Effective Communicator: You can command a room of AI PhDs and translate their technical breakthroughs into compelling user value.
What We Offer
The Scaleup Experience: Impact the trajectory of a company growing 300% annually.
Competitive Compensation: €55k – €85k base + aggressive objective-based bonuses.
Total Flexibility: Fully remote culture with deep intentionality.
High-End Offsites: 3 annual all-hands offsites to recharge and align in person.
The Best Talent: Work alongside a team where "PhD" is the standard, not the exception.
Year 1 Success Metrics
Launch: Successfully bring 3 pre-funded spinoffs to market.
The Blueprint: Standardize the AIVB Product & UX framework across the entire ecosystem.
Talent: Successfully hire and onboard the first 5+ product/design leads for internal ventures.
Standardization: Ensure 100% brand and UX consistency across all AIVB assets.
