Inkitt is building the Disney of the 21st Century, standing at the forefront of technology and entertainment. Leveraging AI and predictive algorithms, Inkitt discovers unknown stories and turns them into blockbuster hits, producing a new $1M ebook every 7 days and selling directly to consumers through its Inkitt Galatea app. Bestsellers are then translated onto the screen through Inkitt CandyJar, the #1 US-based microdrama platform with billions of episodes streamed to date. Inkitt has become the 11th most bestseller-generating publisher in the world, boasting a 40x higher hit-rate than traditional publishers. Backed by some of the top VC’s such as: Khosla, Kleiner Perkins, and NEA Ventures, our recent expansion into Ironblood, the first AI Native streaming platform for action and adventure, is only the beginning of our journey to becoming the next-gen entertainment powerhouse. Which product you'll own
We run four consumer products and we are hiring product managers for all of them.
Galatea — serialized fiction, millions of readers, coins and subscription
CandyJar — the #1 US-based microdrama platform, billions of episodes streamed
Ironblood — our new AI-native streaming platform for action and adventure
Inkitt — the writing and discovery platform underneath all of it, where the stories come from
We decide which one you own at the point you start, not at the point you apply. When you join, we look at where the largest metric gap is across the portfolio and put you there. As the team grows, areas get reshuffled — people move to where the biggest problem is.
We are telling you this up front because it is a real feature of working here, and because it does not suit everyone. If you want to own one named surface for three years, this is the wrong company. Some of our strongest product managers were hired for one thing and were doing something else entirely within a year — including one who was brought in to build internal tooling and ended up launching CandyJar from zero. How We Work — please read this part carefully
This role works differently from most product jobs, and the difference matters more than anything else on this page.
Ali, our founder and CEO, sets company priorities. You own the ideas. You will own an app or area end to end, and you will spend part of every day researching competitors, the industry and our users to generate new feature ideas. Every product manager here keeps a live Top 3 list of the highest-impact ideas for their area — a new idea only enters that list by beating one already on it.
You pitch ideas to Ali on a single slide with a rough impact calculation attached. He rejects the ones that will not move the number enough to justify building them. That happens often, to everyone, and it is not a signal that anything has gone wrong.
Once an idea is approved, you own execution: spec, design, engineering, launch, and the A/B test. You release and ramp tests on your own judgement. Four weeks after launch, every feature is reviewed against the impact you predicted before you built it.
Your performance is measured on exactly two things: how often you beat your own Top 3, and the realised impact of what you ship.
If that sounds like the job you want, the rest of this page is for you.
