About The Job:
Our product managers work within our product teams to solve hard customer and business problems in ways that cater to our customers and work for our business. Our product teams are cross-functional and durable, comprised of a product manager, a product designer, and several engineers.

Our product teams come up with effective solutions that are
Valuable to our customers
Viable given the many constraints of the business
Usable for end- users
Feasible for our engineers to implement


While the product designer is accountable for the solution’s usability, and the engineers for its technical feasibility, the product Manager is accountable for its value and business viability.

The product manager contributes knowledge of the business’s constraints (e.g. marketing, sales, service, finance, legal, and privacy). The product manager also contributes deep knowledge of our users and customers, and data about customer engagement with our products. Finally, the product manager tracks industry trends and the competitive landscape of the product.

The product manager collaborates closely with the product designers and engineers to discover effective solutions, and then works together to deliver those solutions to market. We hold the team accountable to the results and we look for product managers that are not afraid of signing up for results, even when this means they have to work collaboratively and effectively without direct authority across the team.

This job is an individual contributor role. You will need to be able to influence your teammates, as well as colleagues, stakeholders, and key executives, through your use of data and logic.
