About the Role

We’re looking for a highly motivated Ecommerce Product Researcher & Competitor Analyst to join our team and help us find and validate winning products as we head into Q4.

This is a high-ownership role. You’ll work directly with the Founder and Operations Lead, and your research will help determine which products we test, launch, and scale.

What you’ll do:

  • Research and find potential winning ecommerce products
  • Monitor TikTok, Kalodata, competitor stores, social media, and emerging trends
  • Analyze competitors, market demand, saturation, pricing, ads, and creative
  • Determine whether a product has realistic potential to compete and scale
  • Present your strongest product opportunities and explain your reasoning
  • Identify products that look promising but should actually be avoided
  • Track all research, products, competitors, and decisions in Google Sheets
  • Source TikTok videos, B-roll, UGC, competitor creatives, and other content for approved products
  • Work closely with the Operations Lead to move products from research to launch
  • Keep the product pipeline organized and always know the status of every opportunity

What we’re looking for:

  • Strong research and analytical skills
  • Curious and naturally driven to investigate products and trends
  • Good understanding of ecommerce and online shopping behavior
  • Highly organized and detail-oriented
  • Able to work independently and take ownership
  • Comfortable with direct feedback and criticism
  • Persistent and able to handle many failed ideas before finding a winner
  • Fast learner who can adapt to new research methods and tools
  • Strong communication and documentation skills
  • Available and responsive 7 days a week, especially during Q4

Ecommerce or product research experience is a plus, but we’re also open to someone who has strong research skills and the right mindset.

Compensation:

$1,000/month + possible equity.

There is potential for additional upside based on the value and results generated from the products you help identify.

This is not a traditional low-pressure 9-to-5 role. We’re looking for someone who wants to take ownership, move quickly, and be part of a team that is actively scaling ecommerce brands.

How to Apply:

Please include the following in your application:

One ecommerce product you believe is a winner right now. Explain why, who is already selling it, how saturated the market is, and whether we could realistically compete.
One product that looks like a winner but you believe is actually a bad opportunity. Explain what you researched, what red flags you found, and why you rejected it.
Tell us what you’re currently doing, your relevant experience, and how many hours per week you can realistically commit.

Applications without the two product analyses will not be reviewed.

If you love researching products, analyzing competitors, finding opportunities, and figuring out what can actually make money, we’d love to hear from you.
