About The Position

Authorium is transforming how government agencies manage complex, document-centric workflows.

We believe in the power of collaboration and data to modernize government operations. The Role We’re looking for a sharp, curious Product Analyst to join our Product team. This is a ground-floor opportunity to work directly alongside our Head of Product and Senior Product Manager — not as a note-taker, but as a real contributor shaping how we build, measure, and improve our platform. You’ll wear multiple hats: part product manager in training, part data analyst, part market researcher. Your work will directly inform product decisions, roadmap prioritization, and how we understand our users. This role sits at the entry point of our Product Management career ladder (Product Analyst → PM → Sr PM → Principal PM). It is designed for someone early in their career who wants to grow into a Product Management role faster than they would anywhere else.
