About Us

At Minimal Viable Launch, we empower non-technical founders to turn groundbreaking software ideas into thriving businesses with their first 100 paying customers. Our proven process accelerates concept-to-market for AI and SaaS ventures, making launches faster, more affordable and less risky. Backed by a track record of scaling products to millions in revenue, we focus on micro-validation and solving urgent customer problems. Join us in shaping the future of software business launches.

Our Culture

We're a fully remote, results-driven team of scrappy doers. We value autonomy, asynchronous collaboration and minimal meetings whereby delivering outcomes matters more than logging hours. If you love leveraging AI to streamline workflows and elevating team performance, you'll fit right in.

Who You Are

Agile Project Leader

You bring strong Agile project management skills (Scrum, Kanban, Lean or hybrid approaches) and can adapt delivery to evolving project needs.

Client-Centric Liaison

You build trust through exemplary onboarding/offboarding, maintain client portals (e.g. Basecamp), and ensure expectations are met.

Process Architect

You design and refine workflows, set milestones, and eradicate friction to drive faster, smoother project delivery.

Detail-Obsessed Organiser

Nothing slips through the cracks under your watch. You track tasks, risks and deadlines with precision.

Remote Work Champion

You thrive in distributed teams, communicate proactively and keep everyone aligned across time zones.

Customer Advocate

You serve as the go-to contact, anticipate client needs and champion their success throughout the project lifecycle.

Technically Fluent Project Manager (Bonus)

You’ve overseen development projects end-to-end, liaised with engineers and translated technical requirements into clear deliverables.

What You’ll Do

  • Project Oversight

    Lead our AI and SaaS initiatives using Agile methodologies: facilitating sprints, backlog prioritisation, and iterative delivery from kickoff through launch.

  • Client Management

    Act as primary point-of-contact: manage onboarding/offboarding, maintain Basecamp-style portals and deliver transparent updates throughout the sprint cycle.

  • Technical Coordination

    Translate client objectives into actionable tasks; collaborate with developers during sprints to scope, prioritise and resolve issues.

  • Process Improvement

    Continuously refine Agile practices, PM frameworks, templates and dashboards to optimise efficiency and reduce delivery risks.

  • Quality Assurance

    Define acceptance criteria, oversee testing phases and ensure outputs meet client standards.

  • Risk & Issue Management

    Identify potential blockers early, propose mitigations and escalate as needed to keep projects on track.

What We Offer

  • Competitive Hourly Rate with potential to scale hours as projects expand
  • Professional Development Budget for courses and certifications
  • Flexible Remote Working in a supportive, high-autonomy culture
  • Regular Mentoring & Feedback from seasoned founders
  • Access to Industry Network of AI and SaaS experts
