Ovoko is transforming Europe’s €30B+ used car parts market - a massive, fragmented industry still largely offline. We connect 7,000+ scrapyard owners, car parts sellers and dismantlers with millions of buyers through our marketplace, SaaS and logistics platform, making it effortless to trade parts across borders. With over 42 million parts listed, we’ve grown into one of Europe’s fastest-scaling e-commerce companies, but the real opportunity lies ahead, as we build a real category-defining platform worldwide.

Accurate and detailed part catalogue is a true “holy grail” within our industry. Entire companies exist just for collecting, analysing and distributing information about vehicle parts and based on what we have seen so far - all of the existing catalogues could really be improved. After 10 years of selling used vehicle parts and millions of sold items, we believe that we are ready to build this holy grail ourselves, and to define the new industry standard.

You will be the first hire for a brand new team, whose job is going to be to decide how we are going to build a global used vehicle part catalogue. We have a few ideas already, but you will be the person who will actually decide what is going to be the first step and what we are going to do to really make it happen. This is a high stakes role and the team and we are ready to invest a lot of money to build something really great.

• Fully own the product: you will be directly responsible for the entire product. We will give you full decision rights for how you want to run your team and build the product. The rest of the business will support you to hire the talent and get whatever you need to first build and then scale the part catalogue.

• Lead discovery: figure out what is possible, what the customers actually need, and where the biggest opportunities lie.

• Execute: work hand-in-hand with the people you will decide to hire. We think you’ll need a few backenders, data analysts and potentially a designer.

• Measure impact: know if the work that you are doing is pushing your product and the ultimate vision forward.

• Champion the user: advocate for solutions that create a satisfying user experience for our users, and help them solve their problems in an effective and efficient way.

• 3+ years of experience building large scale, user-facing data products. Based on our guestimates there are 60+million unique part codes that we would need to catalogue.

• Previous Product Manager/Owner experience is great, but not required

• Someone who thrives in uncertainty. You won’t have any metrics in the beginning and will need to find a way to execute with limited information.

• Passion or deep knowledge about cars is a must. Can’t build this with zero knowledge about cars.

• Structured problem solver who can break down messy problems into clear, actionable steps.

• Strong technical insight - you are able to discuss APIs, integrations, and backend logic with engineers.

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, able to influence without authority.
