“How should I think about joining an early stage startup as their first product hire?” 

Many experienced product leaders are considering this path, so we sat down to chew on it together. 

In this episode, we talk about our respective journeys in early stage startups, the evaluation criteria we would apply today to the decision (including how to assess PMF, gauging fit with the founder and the team, the importance of the problem space, how compensation factors into the decision, and how your product craft could accelerate from a tour of duty in the very early stage). 

We wrap by describing the product leaders who might benefit the most from early stage startups and share a few tips from Supra community members.
