Senior Venture Product, Growth & Brand Lead

As Senior Venture Product, Growth & Brand Lead, you take on a central role within the Venture Building Team of QAI Ventures Singapore at the intersection of product, market, growth, and communication. Your primary focus is on operational work with early-stage deep tech ventures within our venture building and accelerator program. In close collaboration with founders, venture leads, and product, management, and growth profiles, you support the structured development of new ventures from problem definition through product positioning to go-to-market execution and initial market validation.

In this role, you act as a hands-on product and growth manager within the venture building teams. You help translate complex technologies into understandable products, clear value propositions, and compelling market communication. You work closely with founders to sharpen problem-solution fit, prioritize use cases, and implement first go-to-market approaches. At the same time, you ensure that positioning, brand, communication, and market presence of the ventures are built consistently, clearly, and differentiatedely.

You also take an active role in building first commercial activities, from identifying suitable pilot customers to initiating initial customer relationships and validating willingness to pay.

Together with founders and technical teams, you define initial product concepts, derive MVP scope and product requirements, and structure iterative product development cycles based on market and user feedback.

In addition to the venture building work, you are responsible for approximately 30% of your time for the marketing of QAI Ventures Singapore and the APAC region. In close coordination with the Group CMO and local agencies, you implement the global marketing strategy locally and position QAI as a leading Quantum AI Venture Builder. The remaining time you work directly with venture teams and help build their market presence from scratch — from positioning and messaging through go-to-market strategy to first campaigns, market tests, and lead generation.

You move confidently between strategic structuring of product and market logic and pragmatic hands-on execution, and can work in parallel on multiple ventures with different technologies, markets, and business models.

You systematically transfer learnings across different ventures, markets, and technologies, thereby contributing to the continuous development of the entire venture portfolio.
