Location: Mumbai, India or Europe 
Contract: Full-time, permanent
About KiddopiaKiddopia is a leading subscription-based early-learning app for children aged 2–7, developed by Mumbai-based Paper Boat Apps. Through engaging, interactive play, we help children develop language, mathematics, problem-solving, creativity and social skills.
With a reported family user base of more than 20 million worldwide and the US as our largest market, Kiddopia has established itself as a recognised global early-learning brand. Our partnerships include globally recognised entertainment brands such as Mattel, Hasbro and Moonbug.

The RoleAs Product Director, you will own Kiddopia's product vision, roadmap and business model across iOS, Android and web. This is a principal-level role for a hands-on product leader who is as comfortable in the data and the detail as in the strategy. You'll oversee product across the different areas of Kiddopia, from the core learning experience to onboarding, subscriptions and new products, and work closely with Nazara Group leadership, engineering, design, content, marketing and commercial teams.
You'll shape how Kiddopia grows, with the ambition of expanding an established, profitable business into a broader, multi-product global early-learning brand.

Growth & Experimentation

• Drive subscriber growth, conversion and retention through onboarding, paywall and lifecycle improvements.
• Lead localisation, pricing and channel strategy to accelerate international growth, particularly in the US and Europe.
• Run a rapid experimentation programme, and stay close to the data and the detail yourself.

People & Team

• Work hands-on alongside the team: writing specs, analysing data, prototyping and playtesting.

Governance, Trust & Compliance

• Embed responsible AI, data security and child safety into product decisions.
