Entrepeneur in Residence/Product Lead
Are you a builder who thrives in ambiguity, gets energy from talking to real users, and wants to turn emerging agentic AI capabilities into a product people actually rely on?
We create intelligent software development tools for developers and teams. More than 15 million users, over 300,000 companies, and 88 of the Fortune Global Top 100 rely on our products to solve real, complex problems. Our mission is simple: make development teams more productive and AI adoptable at scale.
NoPressure is an early-stage startup within JetBrains' Innovation Hub. We started by using AI-powered simulations to help people practice high-stakes workplace conversations. Now, we're exploring how agentic AI and real-world context can provide personalized, moment-of-need practice and support at work.
We’re looking for an Entrepreneur in Residence / Product Lead to partner with our technical founder. This is a 0→1 role where you’ll define our vision and venture strategy. You’ll figure out who our ideal customer is, identify high-value use cases, and validate key hypotheses through rapid experimentation. Working alongside a small, fast-moving engineering team, you will shape both the product and how it gets to market, turning early signals into something organizations want to adopt.
Day to day, you will:
In this role, success means rapidly turning market ambiguity into actionable direction. You will establish a validated ideal customer profile and high-value use cases through real user evidence rather than assumptions. You’ll build an experimental cadence that uncovers genuine demand early, helping the team ship an agentic AI experience that users regularly rely on and organizations actively invest in.
We are an equal opportunity employer. We know great ideas can come from anyone, anywhere. That’s why we do our best to create an open and inclusive workplace – one that welcomes everyone regardless of their background, identity, religion, age, accessibility needs, or orientation.
If this sounds like the kind of challenge you’re looking for, we’d love to hear from you.

JetBrains runs a Flexible Hybrid model, so most roles are tied to one of its 15 offices across Europe (including Amsterdam, Prague, Munich, Berlin, Belgrade, Warsaw, Madrid, London, and Cyprus), the Americas (Foster City, Marlton, and Waltham), and Shanghai. Even roles posted as remote are usually locked to a specific country, so check the location listed on a job before applying.
No. JetBrains hires across engineering, design, UX research, marketing, sales, and operations, and its careers page is explicit that you do not have to write code to be a match. Every hire, technical or not, is asked to complete a test assignment, which is how the team sees the actual skills a role needs in action.
Alongside hybrid flexibility and up to 30 days a year working abroad, JetBrains provides in-office meals, snacks, and drinks, a gym subsidy, a learning and development budget for conferences, books, and courses, and a top-spec equipment setup. Health, dental, vision, mental-health support, pension, and parental leave are included, though the exact coverage depends on the country you are based in.
It runs in stages: an application with a CV and short cover letter, an application review, a recruiter call, and a team interview. You are then given a test assignment, for any role and not just engineering, which can usually be done from home. Potential teammates review it, followed by a final interview and a reference check with three contacts before a decision is made.
JetBrains looks for people who raise the standard around them, care about why the work matters, and are comfortable owning decisions without close supervision. Having stayed private and profitable for more than two decades, the company builds without short-term external pressure, so it suits people who want the space to take their time and get things right rather than chase quarterly targets.
