Own the pipeline from idea to buildable spec — turning approved features into PRDs engineering can move on, without waiting.
Atiom is an AI-powered performance platform helping service-first brands — led by hospitality — get the best from their frontline teams. We're a ~30-person company with enterprise clients including IHG, Accor and Minor Hotels, and AI has made our engineering team fast. The constraint now isn't building — it's defining.
The step where a rough idea becomes something engineering can actually build — the flows, the edge cases, the implementation decisions, the "does this even collide with what we already ship" checks — is where everything backs up today, because it's being done in the spare hours of a CTO and VP Product who have other jobs. That's your seat.
You own the pipeline from idea to buildable spec. You'll run discovery, pressure-test feasibility with the CTO and Tech Lead, kill the assumptions that would sink a feature before anyone builds it, and hand engineering a PRD they can move on without waiting. Hands-on, technical, IC ownership — not a layer of process on top of one.
Take the roadmap's live features from concept to a definition-of-ready that engineering trusts — one clear flow, not five ambiguous boards. Definition quality is the whole job, not a by-product: user logic, edge cases, states, data implications, and the implementation detail that lets engineering move fast.
Before deep specs, front-load the three checks that sink features: the one make-or-break technical assumption, fit against systems and roles already shipped, and any adjacent in-flight workstream. Catch the sinkers on a whiteboard — not in 1,800 lines of spec. Validate feasibility with the CTO and Tech Lead, and gate anything that's unproven.
Own the process itself — PRD templates, definition-of-ready, backlog and board hygiene, and triage routing. Spot friction in the broader dev process and raise it as recommendations to engineering leads. You propose; they own.
In your first year.
We've been closing the gap between standards and service since 2020. Atiom builds behaviour-change technology used by some of the world's most demanding service-first brands — and we work alongside them, so the roadmap comes from real operations, not a whiteboard.
The team is senior, the customers are global, and the ownership is real. What you build — or sell — reaches the floor.
