Product Owner (Support & Moderation Platform)

appflame — a Ukrainian IT company building world-class products: Hily, Taimi, AdConnect.

Who we are today:

7 years on the market, 500+ employees, offices in Kyiv, London, and Limassol, plus a coworking space in Warsaw.

In 2025, appflame ranked 5th among Ukraine's 50 best employers according to Forbes and won in the "Place for Growth" category.

Our apps Hily and Taimi are among the Top 5 dating apps in the U.S ., with over 70 million users. AdConnect and Mailkeeper build and scale our own B2B and B2C solutions.

Our mission: Flame up the world with Ukrainian products.

Our goals:

Reach the top 5 product companies in the world.

Become a unicorn — and turn Ukraine into a country where unicorns are born and thrive.

We're looking for daring, ambitious, and "a little crazy" people — those who love building real products and dream of launching cool startups. You have the ambition; we have the conditions to make it happen.

You will:

Own the internal support and moderation platform end-to-end, including vision, roadmap, priorities, and results.

Run one backlog for the helpdesk, chat, moderation, QA, and reporting tools, and decide what gets built and in what order.

Collaborate with other products across the company to launch features together, improving the experience of millions of users.

Define the success metric for every release, such as cost per contact, handling time, deflection, moderation speed, or accuracy, and check afterward whether it moved.

Work closely with agents, moderators, and team leads to understand their workflows and turn their pain points into product decisions.

Integrate AI to automate repetitive work, increase cost efficiency, and improve user experience.

Lead a team of developers and project managers, keeping everyone moving toward the same goal.

We'll have a match if you:

Have 2+ years of experience owning a product end-to-end, accountable for outcomes, not just delivery.

Have experience with internal, B2B, or operational tools.

Have a solid understanding of support or moderation operations, including queues, SLAs, routing, QA, and what one extra click costs across a 24/7 shift.

Have hands-on experience shipping AI or automation features and measuring their impact on quality, not just volume.

Have strong prioritization skills and the business judgment to weigh development cost against impact.

Have the technical confidence to discuss architecture, trade-offs, and tech debt with engineers as a peer. Have clear, structured communication and the ability to lead people without needing formal authority.

Have English at an Advanced (C1) level.

Have strong analytical skills to build a data-driven product and make decisions based on data.

Will be an advantage:

Have experience with a helpdesk platform, such as Zendesk, Intercom, Freshdesk, or an in-house solution.

Have a background in consumer apps with user-generated content.

Have experience managing and leading teams
