ABOUT THE COMPANY

America is under sustained cyber attack. Our adversaries infiltrate our networks, steal our IP, and degrade the digital infrastructure that modern life runs on. They’ve learned—correctly—that those attacks rarely produce consequences.

Twenty was founded to change that, by making our adversaries think twice before they attack us. Our vision is American and allied primacy in cyberspace—a future where they cannot contest us, deterrence is assured, and the free world remains secure.

Founded in 2024, Twenty Technologies (www.twenty.io http://www.twenty.io) industrializes offensive cyber operations for the U.S. and its allies. Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, Twenty has raised $168M from Khosla Ventures, Accel, Caffeinated Capital, Friends & Family Capital, Point72 Ventures, General Catalyst, and In-Q-Tel.

ROLE SUMMARY

This is a 0→1 product role for someone who can move from early user discovery through MVP launch and iteration. You will work closely with a small team of engineers, users, and executive leadership to define the marketplace experience, establish its foundational workflows, and determine how matching, trust, and participation should work at scale.

The problems are complex, the requirements will evolve, and there is no established playbook. Success will require strong product judgment, deep user empathy, and the ability to move fluidly between long-term strategy and hands-on execution.

WHAT YOU’LL DO

• Own the product vision, strategy, and execution.
• Lead the product from initial discovery through MVP definition, launch, iteration, and scale.
• Conduct user interviews and ongoing discovery across a diverse set of marketplace participants.
• Develop a deep understanding of user workflows, incentives, constraints, and trust requirements.
• Design experiences that support both human users and automated participants.
• Define how marketplace participants discover opportunities, evaluate fit, establish trust, and engage with one another.
• Translate complex operational needs into clear product requirements, priorities, and roadmaps.
• Partner closely with a team of approximately three to five engineers to define scope, sequence delivery, and make sound technical and product tradeoffs.
• Lead or actively support sprint planning, backlog prioritization, acceptance criteria, and product reviews.
• Use real operational signals, user feedback, and product data to improve matching quality and marketplace performance.
• Balance near-term experimentation and delivery with the longer-term development of a scalable platform.
• Brief executive leadership on product strategy, progress, risks, tradeoffs, and key decisions.
• Create alignment across engineering, users, and leadership on what to build, why it matters, and what comes next.

TECH ENVIRONMENT (YOU MIGHT WORK WITH)

• You might work with identity, permissions, reputation, and trust systems designed for sensitive environments.
• You might work with backend-heavy platforms supporting complex transactions and participant workflows.
• You might work in environments where security, reliability, transparency, and operational usability matter as much as feature velocity.

Benefits

• Health. Medical, dental, and vision plan options. Life / AD&D, disability coverage options.
