Main Street is on a mission to make life a fair game. We’re building a modern, full-service platform that helps high potential individuals start businesses. Think of us as Lambda School meets Shopify for business ownership - we’re combining world-class training and technology to rethink starting businesses from the ground up. We're 10x more affordable than a franchise and 10x less risky than starting a business on your own.

We’re a seed stage company (~$4.7M led by Foundation, Khosla, YC + founders of OpenDoor & DoorDash) and our team previously worked at places like DoorDash, Uber, OpenDoor and Amazon. To learn more about who we are, see our COO’s user guide here, our PM’s here.

Collaborate on the product roadmap around Main Street’s approach to serving customers and drafting product documents and plans. Understand and collaborate on product roadmap with product & marketing teams.

Define and analyze KPIs, both input and output metric frameworks, that inform the success of our tooling and training products

Build a team of freelancer and contract engineers in your local area to support our eight person product team, help Main Street evolve from 2 to 25 engineers and 100x user scale. Develop best-in-class procedures ensuring quality standards are met and maintained. • Build upon a strong culture of best practices of technical ownership and accountability (code reviews, testing, design reviews).
