About DNK

DNK is on a mission to transform how rental property owners across the APAC region manage, monetize, and connect with tenants through cutting-edge digital solutions. Leveraging our experience in managing diverse rental properties, we are on a mission to build an all-in-one platform that streamlines workflows and maximizes asset returns.

 

Role Overview

We are seeking a dynamic and versatile Product Manager to join our fast-paced startup environment. We are in the 1-100 customer stage with an aggressive timeline to achieve product-market fit. Our product managers are expected to wear multiple hats and be deeply involved in every phase of the product lifecycle. There will be both zero-to-one opportunities to help build our new product verticals, as well as support the optimization and feature enhancement of our core property management software.

 

Key Responsibilities:

  • Drive the execution of product initiatives, ensuring smooth and consistent product cycles. Collaborate closely with a product squad to move the needle on our key product outcomes.
  • Balance high-level strategic thinking with meticulous attention to detail. Plan and manage product discovery, design, and implementation phases effectively.
  • Work closely with our customers and cross functional peers in sales, marketing, and strategy to deeply understand their needs. Leverage this understanding to drive product decisions and strategy.
  • Get creative with research methods to strategize and prioritize features. Explore competitor analysis, industry trends, and innovative product feature testing.

 

Who We're Looking For:

  • Excellent communicator: Your written and spoken communication skills are your superpower. Just as a designer uses Figma, you use your words to create clarity and drive action.
  • Team player: You thrive in cross-functional environments and are adept at building strong relationships across teams. Collaboration is at the heart of how you work.
  • Outcomes oriented: You’re an advocate of outcomes driven product development. You are tirelessly asking why and thinking of creative ways to measure the impact of everything you ship.
  • Proactive: You have a keen eye for spotting opportunities for improvement, whether it be a product or team process, and proactively work to resolve the problem.
  • Customer obsessed: You understand the weight of each enterprise customer in a B2B context. Your decisions are always rooted in delivering value to the customer.

 

Preferred qualifications:

  • Experience working at an early stage fast-paced start-up
  • Experience in real estate or property technology (proptech) software
  • Experience managing enterprise scale B2B products
  • Japanese Fluent and English Business preferred

  • Impact: Shape the future of property management in the APAC region. Your work will directly impact how properties are managed across APAC.
  • Growth: Be part of a rapidly growing startup with the opportunity to drive significant product decisions and shape our path to product-market fit.
  • Diversity: Enjoy the freedom to work remotely while collaborating with a diverse and passionate team.
