About Shypple

Shypple makes shipping simple. We combine an easy-to-use platform with expert services to take the hassle out of a traditionally complex industry. Our platform is the central workspace for our customers, their suppliers and customers, our partners and our internal service teams. It gives real-time visibility on every shipment and brings booking, planning, delivery and collaboration with logistics partners together in one place. We believe the best way to change a traditional industry is a smartly built system combined with a high-quality customer experience.

Your role

Our Product & Development team builds and evolves our platform, keeps it competitive and keeps improving how well it fits our focus customer segments. AI is a growing part of how we do that, in the product and in how we work.

You lead product areas as the product leader of cross-functional agile teams, working with developers, UX designers, analysts and AI engineers, and you report to our Chief Product Officer. You own the strategy, the roadmap and the outcome, end to end. You drive the investments in your areas and are accountable for the results. You will:

• set the vision and roadmap for your product areas, based on customer research and market insight;

• work with operations, sales, finance and customers to find the problems worth solving, and frame them in data so that engineering and data teams can pick them up and measure success;

• own delivery from idea to daily use: you are accountable for the plan, the scope, the quality and the result, not only the date;

• apply AI where AI makes sense, set the quality bar for AI output and the systems to monitor it;

• help shape how Shypple does product management: set standards, share what works and coach your colleagues;

What makes Shypple unique?

At Shypple, you’ll join a multicultural, collaborative team with a flat hierarchy where teamwork is key. We thrive on innovation, constantly reimagining logistics with data, digital solutions and AI.

• 5+ years of experience as a Product Manager, including products taken into production and operated afterwards, ideally with AI-powered features. Fewer years but already working at senior level? We’d like to hear from you!;

• Hands-on fluency with current AI models, agents and tools. You’ve built and tested a prototype yourself, and you can explain to a non-technical audience what AI does well, where it fails and what the risks are;

• Strong customer discovery and problem framing, and a data-driven way of working;

• The ability to persuade and align people without formal authority, from team to leadership level;

• Logistics experience is a plus, not a must;

• A Bachelor’s degree or higher, and fluent English.
