How to Apply for Product Owner (PL)
at Chooose
🏢 About Chooose
Chooose is at the forefront of enabling the lower carbon fuel value chain, tackling one of the hardest challenges in climate tech: decarbonizing aviation. As a remote-first company with a mission-driven team, you'll have the opportunity to work on high-impact software that directly helps airlines and fuel producers reduce emissions.
About This Role
As a Product Owner, you'll own the vision and roadmap for a key domain within Chooose's platform, focusing on the aviation fuel market. Your work will directly shape how customers manage and report on sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) purchases, driving real-world carbon reductions. You'll work closely with a distributed team and leverage AI tools to rapidly prototype and deliver features.
💡 A Day in the Life
Your day might start with a standup with your distributed engineering team, followed by a customer call with an airline to understand their SAF reporting pain points. After lunch, you'd analyze usage data to prioritize the next sprint, then spend an hour prototyping a new dashboard feature using an AI tool like GPT-4. You'd end the day reviewing market research on upcoming regulations and updating the product roadmap.
🚀 Application Tools
🎯 Who Chooose Is Looking For
- You have a technical or analytical degree and at least 4 years of enterprise product management experience, ideally in energy, sustainability, or supply chain.
- You deeply understand the aviation fuel market—its stakeholders, regulations (e.g., CORSIA, RFS), and pain points—and can translate customer needs into product requirements.
- You are hands-on with AI tools (e.g., LLMs, no-code prototyping) and have side projects or examples of using AI to accelerate product development.
- You excel at balancing data-driven decisions with customer empathy, and you thrive in a fast-paced, remote startup environment.
📝 Tips for Applying to Chooose
Tailor your resume to highlight experience with enterprise SaaS products in regulated industries (energy, aviation, sustainability) and include specific metrics (e.g., 'Increased customer adoption by 30%').
In your cover letter, demonstrate your knowledge of the sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) market—mention key regulations like CORSIA or the EU's ReFuelEU Aviation.
Showcase your AI passion: include links to side projects, GitHub repos, or blog posts where you've built prototypes using LLMs or other AI tools.
Emphasize your ability to work with distributed teams—mention any experience with async communication, remote collaboration tools, or managing offshore engineers.
Prepare a 1-page product vision document for a feature you'd build for Chooose (e.g., a SAF certificate tracking dashboard) and attach it to your application.
✉️ What to Emphasize in Your Cover Letter
['Your passion for climate tech and specifically for decarbonizing aviation through software.', 'Your deep understanding of the aviation fuel market, including key stakeholders and regulatory drivers.', "Your hands-on experience with AI tools and how you've used them to accelerate product development.", 'Your track record of owning a product domain and driving high-velocity execution with a distributed team.']

- Avoid downplaying your AI experience; even small side projects count—show your passion.
- Don't focus only on features—this role is about owning a domain and strategy, not just writing user stories.
